Emission and energy transfer characteristics of coumarin 6 molecules doped in opal polymer photonic crystal

Abstract

The emission of coumarin 6(C-6) doped in opal polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA) photonic crystal(PC) was effectively manipulated. Meanwhile the energy transfer(ET) of C-6 in PCs, which are infiltrated with sulforhodamine B(S-B), was influenced by the concentration of energy acceptor in solution, the size of PMMA microsphere(SM) and the photonic stop band(PSB). The results should be beneficial to people to further understand the potential application of PCs in optoelectronic fields.
