  • Title: Highly fluorescent rhodamine B nanoparticles entrapped in hybrid glasses.
    Author: Gutiérrez MC, Hortigüela MJ, Ferrer ML, del Monte F.
    Journal: Langmuir; 2007 Feb 13; 23(4):2175-9. PubMed ID: 17279710.
    Abstract:
    Rhodamine B (RB) nanoparticles entrapped in hybrid glasses show enhanced fluorescent emission (approximately 220-fold larger than that of single RB molecules) thanks to the configuration control of the self-assembled aggregates that form the supramolecular architecture of the nanoparticles. The fluorescence performance reported in this work is around 1 order of magnitude larger than that recently reported for fluorescent Nile Red nanoparticles. The fluorescence enhancement results from the use of a highly efficient fluorescent dye such RB and the formation of larger nanoparticles. Note that the later implies the presence of a large number of emitting centers involved in the fluorescence emission.
