- Description
- Herein we report on the photophysicochemical properties of neutral, positively and negatively charged metallophthalocyanines (MPcs) when doped onto silica nanoparticles. The MPcs are: unsubstituted ZnPc (complex 1, neutral), Zn tetraaminophenoxy phthalocyanine (ZnTAPhPc, complex 2, neutral), tetrakis[4-(iodo-N-methylpyridinium)thio] phthalocyanine (ZnTMPyPc, complex 3, cationic), and Zn tetra sulfophenoxy phthalocyanine (ZnTSPhPc, complex 4, anionic). Following doping onto SiNPs, the triplet quantum yields increased for neutral complex 1 and positively charged complex 3. However, singlet oxygen quantum yields increased for positively charged 3 (in 3-SiNPs) and the negatively charge 4 (in 4-SiNPs) and not for complex 1 (in 1-SiNPs), compared to Pcs alone, due to the screening effect.
