Improved Singlet Oxygen Production by Synergistic Effect via a Dual-Core Photosensitizer Doped Polymer Fibrous Films: Synthesis and Performance.

ABSTRACT: Singlet oxygen (¹O₂) is a common reactive oxygen species that has found wide application in wastewater processing, photochemical synthesis, and photodynamic therapy. In this paper, a dual-core metal [a Re(I)-based component and a Gd(III)-based component] photosensitizer was synthesized and doped into polymer fibrous films for ¹O₂ generation. Here the Re(I)-based component is responsible for the photosensitizing reaction which directly transformed ³O₂ to ¹O₂, while the Gd(III)-based component served as an auxiliary part that assisted the transformation from ³O₂ to ¹O₂ via synergistic effect by its triplet excited ligands. The photophysical parameters of
