Indium-tin oxide (ITO) is used in a variety of applications due to its electrical conductivity and optical transparency. Moreover, ITO-coated glass is a common working electrode for spectroelectrochemistry. Thus, the ITO substrates should exhibit well-understood spectroscopic characteristics. Here, we report anomalous potential-dependent luminescence emission from three structurally dissimilar electrofluorogenic probe on ITO-coated glass. The three probes, flavin mononucleotide, resorufin, and Nile blue, show the expected fluorescence modulation between their oxidized, emissive forms and their reduced, nonfluorescent forms at low laser irradiance and/or high concentrations. However, at high irradiance and/or low concentration, the emission intensity increases at reducing potentials, contrary to expectations. In addition, a strong interplay between probe molecule concentration and laser irradiance is observed. We attribute the anomalous behavior to a combination of (1) irradiance-dependent ITO carrier dynamics, and (2) interaction of the fluorescent probe with ITO at reducing potentials resulting in a charge transfer state with altered emission behavior. Thus, the potential- and irradiance-dependent behavior of ITO and the resulting charge transfer state may not only interfere with the observation of potential-dependent fluorescence from redox probes but can completely reverse the polarity of the potential-dependent luminescence, especially at high irradiance and low concentration.
