Abstract: 

Features of pseudoisocyanine J-aggregates formation in layer-by-layer assembled polymer films by the spin-assisted method were studied by optical spectroscopy. The films prepared by the spin-assisted LbL method appeared to be thicker and more inhomogeneous compared with those prepared by the sprayed LbL method. As a result, a large topological disorder causing weaker dipole-dipole interaction was revealed for the J-aggregates. Plasmon enhancement of the J-aggregates luminescence by gold and silver nanoparticles was studied. Due to PIC J-aggregates features in spin-assisted LbL films the luminescence enhancement by gold NPs appeared to be less efficient compared to the J-aggregates in sprayed LbL films. However, due to the H-band of PIC J-aggregates, the luminescence enhancement by silver NPs was achieved despite the large spectral distance between the corresponding plasmon band and J-band.
