Fluorescence microscopy and spectroscopy were applied for studying the optical properties of a hybrid nanostructure, in which we combine plasmon-induced metal enhanced fluorescence with energy transfer to epitaxial graphene. Covering the layer of silver islands with a monolayer graphene, while turning on the efficient energy transfer from emitters, only moderately affects the enhancement of fluorescence attributed to the plasmon resonance in metallic nanostructures—as evidenced by the analysis of fluorescence decays. The results show that it is feasible to combine the properties of graphene with metal-enhanced fluorescence. The importance of the layer thickness of the emitters is also pointed out.

Carbazole–corrole and carbazole–porphyrin dyads were synthesized, and fluorescence studies indicated efficient energy transfer from carbazole-donor to corrole/porphyrin acceptor in the dyads.

The photochemistry of two anthracene-appended cobalt(iii) cyclam complexes is explored with a view to demonstrate a photoactivated ligand release process. The ligand exchange processes that occur in the complexes cis-[CoL(NO2)(ONO)]+ and trans-[CoL(NO2)(ONO)]+ in which L = 6-(anthracen-9-ylmethyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane were monitored upon illumination of the anthracenyl chromophore at 360 nm in the presence of a large excess of thiocyanate. The trans-[CoL(NO2)(ONO)]+ complex underwent a ligand exchange reaction in the absence of light and displayed an enhancement of the reaction upon illumination. In contrast the cis-[CoL(NO2)(ONO)]+ complex was stable in the dark but displayed a significant quantum yield of photoactivated ligand release (Φ = 0.19). It is proposed that in cis-[CoL(NO2)(ONO)]+ the photoexcited anthracenyl chromophore undergoes efficient energy transfer to the cobalt(iii) cyclam before ligand exchange. Complexes based on the anthracenylcyclam–cobalt(iii) framework may be potentially useful candidates as photoactivated ligand release systems.
