Light amplification by silver nanoparticles surface plasmon resonance

Organic materials have several advantages in the fields of an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and organic photovoltaics (OPV), but in the same time they have lower stability and efficiency in comparison to inorganic compounds. It can be improved by introducing metallic nanoparticles into the organic media. In this work we study silver nanoparticles synthesis in aqueous solution, their transfer to organic solutions, their impact on organic luminescent material emission and photoluminescence parameters - quantum yield, radiative and non-radiative decay rate, luminescence lifetime.
