CsPbBr3 nanoparticles that have been treated with NH4SCN to produce essentially trap-free surfaces show an increase of one photon up-conversion quantum yield with little change to the up-conversion energy of activation, as estimated using an Arrhenius analysis.

The processes of photoexcitation and energy transfer in an air-saturated solution of fullerene C60 in n-methylpyrrolidone are studied. With femtosecond laser pumping at a wavelength л(p) = 520 nm, transient absorption spectra were obtained in the range 470-750 nm. Broadband absorption is observed at л > 650 nm as a result of aggregation of fullerene molecules, characterized by a short decay time of the picosecond scale. The analysis of the time dependencies indicates the presence of several processes. Within the proposed interpretation, we state a remarkable reduction in the time of singlet-triplet intersystem crossing with an increase of nanocluster size while the rapid quenching of the singlet state varies only slightly. The quantum yield of the triplet state can therefore increase, reaching 0.14. The phosphorescence spectra of singlet oxygen with a maximum at л = 1276 nm were measured with LED excitation at various wavelengths in the range 370-625 nm. The lifetime and quenching rate constant of singlet oxygen in n-methylpyrrolidone are determined. The combined quantum yield of triplet fullerene and singlet oxygen in n-methylpyrrolidone is estimated as 0.74. The efficiency spectra of the singlet oxygen photosensibilization in the C60-(n-methylpyrrolidone)-oxygen system are obtained, indicating the increasing role of large nanoclusters in this process during aging of the solution.

Di-amidosil hybrids with variable structure, morphology and photoluminescence properties were obtained using different experimental conditions. A correlation between the emission quantum yield value and the degree of order of the amide–amide hydrogen-bonded array was established for mono- and di-amidosils.

Quantum yield measurements were made with the red alga Porphyridium cruentum, cultured so as to give different proportions of chlorophyll and phycobilins. Totally absorbing suspensions were used so that there was no uncertainty in the amount of energy absorbed. These measurements have shown that chlorophyll, in this alga, has a photosynthetic efficiency as high as in other algal groups, and higher than the phycobilins—at least at wave lengths shorter than about 650 mµ. Wave lengths longer than this are beyond the range of maximum efficiency of chlorophyll. Under specified conditions of temperature and supplementary light full efficiency may be extended to longer wave lengths. The results of these measurements have made it unnecessary to suppose that in red algae chlorophyll plays a minor role while the phycobilins are the photosynthetic sensitizers of primary importance.
