Abstract: | We have studied the temperature dependence of the radiative deactivation of the Pd-porphine triplet states in Shpol’skii matrices
in the temperature range 1.2–210 K. A substantial transformation of the phosphorescence spectra is observed as the temperature
increases and is due to the inclusion of thermally activated Pd-porphine states in the radiative deactivation processes. The
activation energy Ea of these Pd-porphine states is measured in matrices of n-octane and n-nonane. The splitting of the lowest quasidegenerate
triplet state ΔE(T2−T1) is determined for planar and distorted conformations of the Pd-porphine macrocycle in the n-octane matrix as 40 and 57 cm−1, respectively. The ability to use the temperature dependence of the phosphorescence properties of Pd-porphine to fabricate
molecular thermometers for the low-temperature range is analyzed.
