Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence of Chlorophylls in Light-Harvesting Complexes Coupled to Silver Nanowires

Figure 5

Histograms of the enhancement factors determined for the mixed (solid bars) and layer-by-layer (dashed bars) samples with the PCP complexes excited at 405 nm. Data shown in (a) and (b) correspond to the PCP concentration of 2×10⁻³ mg/mL and for the central parts of NW and for the ends of NW, respectively. Data shown in (c) and (d) correspond to the PCP concentration of 1×10⁻⁴ mg/mL and for the central parts of NW and for the ends of NW, respectively.
