The optoelectronic features of 3-hydroxyflavone (3HF) self-assembled on the surface of an n-type semiconducting metal oxide (TiO2) and an insulator (Al2O3) are investigated. 3HF molecules form metal complexes with the coordinatively unsaturated metal ions present on the oxide surface, exhibiting different behaviors upon light irradiation depending on the nature of the metal ion. The photoluminescence of the surface species can be modulated by the chemical properties of the complex, resulting in solid-state emitters with a high quantum yield (about 15%). Furthermore, the photoinduced charge injection can be promoted or inhibited, providing a multifunctional hybrid system.
The optoelectronic features of 3-hydroxyflavone (3HF) self-assembled on the surface of an n-type semiconducting metal oxide (TiO2) and an insulator (Al2O3) are herein investigated. 3HF molecules use the coordinatively unsaturated metal ions present on the oxide surface to form metal complexes, which exhibit different behaviors upon light irradiation, depending on the nature of the metal ion. Specifically, we show that the photoluminescence of the surface species can be modulated according to the chemical properties of the complex (i.e. the binding metal ion), resulting in solid-state emitters in a high quantum yield (about 15%). Furthermore, photoinduced charge injection can be promoted or inhibited, providing a multifunctional hybrid system.
