ABSTRACT:
Hybrid nanostructures including
modified fullerene C60 and fluorophoric (E)-2-Cyano-3-(9-ethyl-9Н-carbazole-3-yl)-acrylic
acid (cyanoacrylic acid I) were created. Spectral properties (absorption and
luminescence spectra) of the hybrid nanostructures were investigated. It was established
what molecules C60 strongly affected spectral properties of cyanoacrylic acid I
in the hybrid nanostructures. Luminescence quenching of fluorophore and a
change of luminescence features were observed in the hybrid nanostructures.
