title: Influence of silver nanoparticles on 2,3-bis(chloromethyl)anthracene-1,4,9,10-tetraone.
abstract: Size effect of silver nano particles on the photophysical properties of 2,3-bis(chloromethyl)anthracene-1,4,9,10-tetraone (BCMAT) have been investigated using optical absorption and fluorescence emission techniques. Silver NPs of different sizes have been prepared by two different methods. Quenching of fluorescence of BCMAT has been found to increase with decrease in the size of the silver NPs. Stern-Volmer quenching constants have also been calculated.
