Electronic excitation energy migration in partly ordered polymeric films
PublikacjaWieloetapowa migracja energii pomiędzy podłużnymi fluoroforami (karbocyjaniny) w osiowo rozciąganych foliach polimerowych była studiowana na podstawie pomiarów anizotropii emisji i symulacji Monte Carlo. W przeciwieństwie do układów nieuporządkowanych pokazano eksperymentalnie, że stężeniowa depolaryzacja fluorescencji w osiowo orientowanych foliach jest ekstremalnie słaba, mimo tego, że zachodzi zjawisko migracji energii. Opierając...
