Supramolecular chemistry in solution and solid–gas interfaces: synthesis and photophysical properties of monocolor and bicolor fluorescent sensors for barium tagging in neutrinoless double beta decay
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: -bound states. Despite this issue, improved performance of the FBIs based on confocal microscopy of the directly attached molecules was observed. These selective FMI and FBI chemosensors installed on tailor-made functionalized surfaces are promising tools to capture the barium cations produced in the double beta decay of Xe-136. The identification of this capture would boost the sensitivity of the experiments searching for the Xe-136-based neutrinoless double beta decay, as backgrounds would be almost totally suppressed.
