Photobleaching is one of the basic chemical processes that occur naturally in organic molecules. In this work, we investigate the quantum dynamics of Cy 7.5 dye molecules optically coupled to Au nanorod particles and experimentally demonstrate the decrease of the photobleaching rate in this hybrid system. We discover the effect of a resonance-like behavior not observed before for any type of emitter─the photobleaching rate of the dye molecules reaches a minimum for a suitable number of molecules coupled to the nanoparticle. The manifestation of the effect is the consequence of shifts in the energy levels in the hybrid system caused by the change in the number of molecules coupled to a nanoparticle. The energy shifts are the prerequisite for the effective depopulation of the triplet level, which is responsible for the photodegradation mechanism. The discovered effect paves the way for increasing the efficiency of optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices. |
