The photoluminescence response of Rhodamine 6G (R6G) laser dye intercalated into solid thin films Laponite (Lap) clay is studied as a function loading. Fluorescence spectroscopy (steady-state and time-resolved techniques) was used to characterize the R6G species adsorbed films. For very diluted loadings (</=0.1% CEC, i.e., percentage total cation exchange capacity Lap) fluorescence properties monomer were characterized, which presents an emission band centered at 548 nm, average lifetime 4.2...
The formation constant and absorption spectrum of the dimer Rhodamine 6G have been evaluated: trimer is not formed. geometric structure aggregate determined using exciton theory. thermodynamics dimerization process permit study association forces, justifying structural differences from those exhibited by B dimers.
Highly emitting 8-propargylaminoBODIPY (8-PAB) 2 was prepared in 94% yield. Unlike any other BODIPY structure hitherto described the literature, displays efficient emission blue region of visible spectrum with a fluorescence quantum yield up to 0.94 and high laser efficiency (35%) at 483 nm.

To develop the solid-state laser oscillator based on dye compounds, incorporation of rhodamine 6G (R6G, a dye) in cetyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) cationic surfactant/montmorillonite clay hybrid (HpC) thin solid films was investigated. The R6G/HpC samples were prepared by immersing HpC into R6G aqueous solution with various concentration. X-ray diffraction patterns HpC, measured before and after intercalation R6G, proved coexistence both surfactant interlayer spaces. All exhibited luminescence....
