Short description of shared resource

A set of spectral research apparatus with very high sensitivity in the UV-Vis-NIR range. Includes spectrophotometers for measurements of steady-state absorption, steady- and time-resolved fluorescence, fluorescence anisotropy, fluorescence microscope with up to 600x magnification and phase-contrast, picosecond pulsed light sources, CW sources. Measurements of directional emission characteristics are possible (e.g. SPCE). The instrument for sample preparation and modification includes Schlenk apparatus to ensure anaerobic conditions, vacuum evaporator, spin-coater. Conditions: possibility to change the polarity of the medium, detect ambient effects in solutions and films in the absence of oxygen within the temperature range from +5 to +90 deg C. It is possible to make solid samples using solution-processing methods, preparation or chemical modification of materials in vacuum or inert atmosphere (argon).

Potential application

The laboratory allows to obtain emission signals from objects which are extremely weakly luminous, enables detection of biochemical processes at a very early stage, examination of mixtures of fluorescent compounds, including those of biological origin, analysis of optical materials, photodegradation and other processes induced by light.
