“…This is possibly due to the formation of aggregates, as supported by UV-VIS spectra (vide supra), consistent with quenching processes reported for other SQ dyes [10,11]. Although such low emission from a blank dye sample is preferable to obtain a high signal-to-noise ratio for sensitive detection, the emission intensity for SQ-BA was irreproducible, and decreased over time when the sample solution of the dye was stored in glass or polypropylene wares.…”

“…Photophysical properties of dU-SQ in variable DMSO/water concentrations were then studied. Consistent with previous photophysical studies of indolium squaraine dyes, [11,21] for dU-SQ, a linear correlation was observed between the wavelength of absorption maxima and the Bayliss function and Lorentz-Lorenz function, in the nonaggregate domain window, exhibiting solvent-polarity-dependent properties (Supporting Information,Figures S3 and S4). Such solvent-polarity influence, plus the contribution of water-induced H-aggregation, contributed to a 30-fold fluorescence enhancement in DMSO/water mixtures with high DMSO proportions.…”

“…[10] Recently, by studying the photophysical properties of an indolium squaraine dye in different solvent systems, solvent polarity dependent emission was found and the lowest rate constant of nonradiative deactivation (k nr ) was obtained in a viscous alcohol solvent. [11] However, further biological applications may be hindered by poor water solubility.…”

“…It occurs through a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) process that yields a non-radiative decay of the dye excited state, hampering quantitative fast electron injection and consequently limiting the cell efficiency [9]. Different strategies were proposed to block the photoisomerization mechanism in these structures: the doubling of anchoring moieties, the insertion of long alkyl chains on the lateral groups or the functionalization of the squaric core unit [10][11][12].…”
