Solvent polarity-induced photoluminescence enhancement (SPIPE): A method enables several-fold increase in quantum yield of silicon nanoparticles

Xiao-Bin Shen, Bin Song, Bei Fang, Xiao Yuan, You-Yong Li, Shun-Yi Wang, Shun-Jun Ji^*, and Yao He^*

Soochow University, China

Typical naphthalic anhydride molecules are synthesized, which serve as surface ligands for the production of ligand-capped small-sized silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs). Quantum yield (QY) of the resultant SiNPs is relatively low, but could be greatly enhanced from ~ 10% to ~ 50% through the solvent polarity-induced photoluminescence enhancement (SPIPE) strategy. Taken together with the theoretical calculation and the results of time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC), we reveal that activated excited-state charge transfer (CT) interactions between surface-covered ligand and silicon oxide coating would be responsible for the observed QY enhancement.
