A 22 kDa protein from Thermus thermophilus is characterised as a DNA binding transcription regulator and its function is established using the fluorescence spectroscopy technique. The steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy result shows significant binding of calf thymus DNA and protein molecule. To confirm, the DNA quenching effect in real-time, a time-resolved emission spectroscopy study was performed and the result shows good agreement with steady-state quenching analysis.

While biomass burning (BB) is the largest source of fine particles in the atmosphere, the influence of relative humidity (RH) and photochemistry on BB secondary organic aerosol (BB-SOA) formation and aging remains poorly constrained. These effects need to be addressed to better capture and comprehend the evolution of BB-SOA in the atmosphere. Cresol (CHO) is used as a BB proxy to investigate these effects.

Many applications of nanocrystals rely on their use in light detection and emission. In recent years, nanocrystals with more relaxed carrier confinement, including so-called 'bulk' and 2D implementations, have made their stake. In such systems, the charge carriers generated after (photo-)excitation are spread over a semi-continuous density of states, behaviour controlled by the carrier temperature .

Herein, we report the synthesis of copillar[5]arene-based pyrene Schiff base 1 and its characterization by using 1H, 13C NMR, FT-IR and mass spectrometry. UV-vis absorption, steady-state fluorescence and time-resolved fluorescence are done to elucidate the photophysical behaviors of 1. To understand the electronic structure of 1, density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed.

The advancement of organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials has attracted considerable interest owing to their extensive applications. Their distinct advantages, including a metal-free composition, low toxicity, and facile synthesis under ambient conditions, make them highly desirable. This study examines the delayed fluorescence (DF) and RTP of metal-free, amorphous indenophenanthridine (IND)-based derivatives (1-10) and provides insights into molecular functionalisation and host matrix effects on delayed emission (RTP and DF).

Nonplanar (butterfly-shaped) phenothiazine () and its derivative's () photophysical and spectral properties have been tuned by varying the solvents and their polarity and investigated employing spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Vis, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence, and TDDFT calculations. The UV-Vis absorption studies and TDDFT calculations reveal two distinct bands for both compounds: a strong π-π* transition at shorter wavelengths and a weaker -π* transition, which displays a little bathochromic shift in polar solvents. The detailed emission studies reveal that such dual emission is a result of the photoinduced excited-state conjugation enhancement (ESCE) process.
