Abstract

The change in the photoluminescence intensity of CdSe nanocrystal/polymer thin films with duration of illumination is investigated. The choice of polymer has an influence on photobrightening and photodarkening. In particular, photodarkening in CdSe nanocrystal/poly(vinyl carbazole) thin film occurs immediately upon illumination, in contrast to the slow changes observed with polystyrene and poly(2-vinylpridine). We discuss the mechanisms of this phenomenon in comparison with interaction between surface of CdSe nanocrystals and polymer side chain.
