Abstract

The adsorption of fluorophores on Laponite XLS particles was derived from the fluorescence spectra and UV absorbance after separating the particles from the dispersion by centrifugation. Addition of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) to the fluorophore/Laponite XLS dispersion enhanced the excimer emission with appearance of the static excimer, and increased the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) efficiency.
