Native fluorescence, or autofluorescence (AF), consists in the emission of light in the UV-visible, near-IR spectral range when biological substrates are excited with light at suitable wavelength. This is a well-known phenomenon, and the strict relationship of many endogenous fluorophores with morphofunctional properties of the living systems, influencing their AF emission features, offers an extremely powerful resource for directly monitoring the biological substrate condition. Starting from the last century, the technological progresses in microscopy and spectrofluorometry were convoying attention of the scientific community to this phenomenon. In the future, the interest in the autofluorescence will certainly continue. Current instrumentation and analytical procedures will likely be overcome by the unceasing progress in new devices for AF detection and data interpretation, while a progress is expected in the search and characterization of endogenous fluorophores and their roles as intrinsic biomarkers.

The authors investigated the effect of a high-temperature modification with SiO2 nanoparticles on the optical properties and radiation stability of BaSO4 powders. The modification leads to insignificant alteration in the reflecting capacity within the UV, visible, and near-IR spectral regions. Appending SiO2 nanoparticles with a concentration of up to 10 wt.% results in the increasing radiation stability of BaSO4 powders. The maximum effect was obtained due to the decreasing intensity of the absorption bands at 270-280, 375-395, 440-460, 500-600, 700, and 950 nm at a nanoparticle concentration of 3 wt.%.

ABSTRACTMethyl and ethyl ring-substituted polyaniline derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by UV-visible-near IR spectroscopy. Optical spectra of the base forms in DMF solution suggest that the torsion angle between adjacent rings is increased by steric hindrance due to the alkyl groups in the substituted polymers, leading to blue shifts in the ∼4 eV (“bandgap”) and ∼2 eV (“exciton”) absorptions and an accompanying decrease in the relative intensity of the “exciton” band.The methyl ring-substituted derivative, poly(o-toluidine), is shown to exhibit solvatochromism. The “exciton” absorption shifts from 2.03 eV in pure NMP to 2.19 eV in CH2CI2, accompanied by a loss in intensity relative to the “exciton” absorption.The phenomenon is attributed to the presence of a more “rod-like” state in NMP as compared to a more “coil-like” state in CH2CI2.The effects of alkyl substituents on acetic acid solution spectra of “emeraldine” salt will be discussed with respect to polaron band formation in these systems.

PbTe nanocrystals (NCs) have been synthesized by a novel method at low temperature. Pb acetate being solved in glycerol and Te in TOP solution were used as the precursors for the preparation of PbTe nanocrystals. The as-prepared products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UVvis absorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). These data, together with analysis of the absorption spectra, allowed us to observe the size dependence of the peaks in the absorption spectrum. The size-dependent optical spectra of the PbTe nanocrystals exhibits wide tunable band gap energies varying from UV visible range to near IR region, which corresponds to a huge blue shift of 3.0 eV in comparison to the bulk counterpart. Keywords: 1. PbTe nanocrystals, 2. optical properties, 3. wide tunable band gap, 4. microstructure
