Cadmium selenide semiconductor nanoparticles (SNP) show a strong photoluminescence (PL) that can be tuned either by doping or changing the structure of the SNP [1]. Their emission is further enhanced by plasmonic effects in the vicinity of metals [2,3]. We investigate the origin of this interaction by studying a series of CdSe-SNPs mixed with Au-based metallic nanoparticles (MNP) in solution with varying concentration ratio of SNP and MNP by UV/VIS absorption and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. We find a non-linear dependence of the PL intensity on the concentration ratio along with a photon-energy-dependent quenching of the absorption.
