Abstract

We have studied the spectral properties of mixtures formed by CdS colloidal quantum dots with an average diameter of 2.5 nm and methylene blue molecules and that are dispersed into gelatin. We have revealed that, in the presence of CdS quantum dots, the luminescence intensity of methylene blue increases. We suggest a model of this effect, which is based on electronic excitation energy transfer from luminescence centers of CdS quantum dots to methylene blue molecules.
