In this study the concentration quenching phenomenon is explored for seven organic singlet emitters (Rhodamine 6G, Pyridine 2, Lumogen F Red 305, Perylene, Coumarin 102, DCM and DCJTB) in an inert host of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Combining fluorescence lifetime and quantum yield measurements on samples of different molecular separation allows a deep decay rate analysis to be performed yielding, for each fluorophore, a monomial power law that indicates the strength and type of interaction. The fluorophores studied exhibit interactions in between that of FRET-like dipole-dipole (R(-6)) and surface-surface (R(-2)) with many lying close to that expected for surface-dipole (R(-3)) interactions. With no observed dependence on molecular structure it is concluded that the concentration quenching rate in singlet emitters follows a power law as kCQ = aR(-3.1±0.7) with aggregation expected to increase the magnitude of the observed power.
在本研究中,对七种有机单线态发光体(罗丹明6G、吡啶2、Lumogen F Red 305、苝、香豆素102、二氯甲烷和DCJTB)在聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(PMMA)惰性主体中的浓度猝灭现象进行了探索。结合对不同分子间距样品的荧光寿命和量子产率测量,能够进行深入的衰减率分析,从而为每个荧光团得出一个单项式幂律,该幂律表明了相互作用的强度和类型。所研究的荧光团表现出介于类FRET偶极 - 偶极(R(-6))和表面 - 表面(R(-2))相互作用之间的相互作用,许多接近表面 - 偶极(R(-3))相互作用所预期的情况。由于未观察到对分子结构的依赖性,得出结论:单线态发光体中的浓度猝灭速率遵循幂律,即kCQ = aR(-3.1±0.7),预计聚集会增加所观察到的幂的大小。
