Matrix-Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique was used to deposit films of Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) – PFO and Methoxy Ge Triphenylcorrole [Ge(TPC)OCH3]. The PFO was dissolved in different matrices, like chloroform-CHCl3, tetrahydrofuran – THF and toluene with a 0.5 wt % concentration, while Ge(TPC)OCH3 was diluted in THF with a concentration of 0.01 wt %. The frozen targets were irradiated with a KrF excimer laser. The, films presented good emission properties to be exploited in light emitting devices and gas sensors based on luminescence quenching. The working principle of the MAPLE technique was used for the deposition of colloidal nanoparticles and nanorods, too. TiO2 colloidal nanoparticles (diameter: ∼10 nm) and nanorods (diameter: 5 nm; length: 50 nm) were diluted in deionised water (0.02 wt %) and toluene (0.016 wt %) respectively. The deposited nanostructures preserved …
