We report a study of excited-state dynamics of trans,trans-distyrylbenzene in hexane solution with femtosecond two-color transient absorption spectroscopy. A consistent model of two distinct excited states, S1 and X, connected by the 10 ps dynamics is proposed with the support from the analysis of excited-state anisotropy. An investigation on the 10 ps dynamics with varying excitation energy has been also conducted. In the assumption of fast intramolecular vibrational redistribution, a dependence of this nonradiative 10 ps process on intramolecular temperature in the S1 state has been analyzed. We have found that an effective mode of approximately 1270 cm-1 is responsible for the 10 ps dynamics. The analysis of both anisotropy and pump-dependent results further implies that a distribution of rotamers may exist in the X state. The result indicates a drastic different excited-state relaxation pathway than that of trans-stilbene. 相似文献

The excited-state dynamics of two polyfluorene copolymers, one fully conjugated containing phenylene vinylene units alternated with 9,9'-dihexylfluorenyl groups and the other segmented by -(CH2)8- spacer, were studied in dilute solution of different solvents using a picosecond single-photon timing technique. The excited-state dynamics of the segmented copolymer follows the F?rster resonant energy-transfer model which describes intrachain energy-transfer kinetics among random oriented chromophores. Energy transfer is confirmed by analysis of fluorescence anisotropy relaxation with the measurement of a short decay component of about 60 ps. The fluorescence decay surface of the fully conjugated copolymer is biexponential with decay times of about 470 and 900 ps, ascribed to deactivation of chain moieties containing trans and cis isomers already in a photostationary condition. Thus, energy transfer is very fast due to the conjugated nature and rigid-rod-like structure of this copolymer chain. 相似文献

Solvation dynamics of coumarin 480 (C480) in the secondary aggregate of a bile salt (sodium deoxycholate, NaDC) is studied using femtosecond up-conversion. The secondary aggregate resembles a long (approximately 40 A) hollow cylinder with a central water-filled tunnel. Different regions of the aggregate are probed by variation of the excitation wavelength (lambdaex) from 375 to 435 nm. The emission maximum of C480 displays an 8 nm red shift as the lambdaex increases from 345 to 435 nm. The 8 nm red edge excitation shift (REES) suggests that the probe (C480) is distributed over regions of varied polarity. Excitation at a short wavelength (375 nm) preferentially selects the probe molecule in the buried locations and exhibits slow dynamics with a major (84%) slow component (3500 ps) and a small (16%) contribution of the ultrafast component (2.5 ps). Excitation at lambdaex=435 nm (red end) corresponds to the exposed sites where solvation dynamics is very fast with a major (73%) ultrafast component (相似文献

Solvation dynamics in a neat ionic liquid, 1-pentyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetra-flouroborate ([pmim][BF4]) and its microemulsion in Triton X-100 (TX-100)/benzene is studied using femtosecond up-conversion. In both the neat ionic liquid and the microemulsion, the solvation dynamics is found to depend on excitation wavelength (lambda(ex)). The lambda(ex) dependence is attributed to structural heterogeneity in neat ionic liquid (IL) and in IL microemulsion. In neat IL, the heterogeneity arises from clustering of the pentyl groups which are surrounded by a network of cation and anions. Such a nanostructural organization is predicted in many recent simulations and observed recently in an X-ray diffraction study. In an IL microemulsion, the surfactant (TX-100) molecules aggregate in form of a nonpolar peripheral shell around the polar pool of IL. The micro-environment in such an assembly varies drastically over a short distance. The dynamic solvent shift (and average solvation time) in neat IL as well as in IL microemulsions decreases markedly as lambda(ex) increases from 375 to 435 nm. In a [pmim][BF4]/water/TX-100/benzene quaternary microemulsion, the solvation dynamics is slower than that in a microemulsion without water. This is ascribed to the smaller size of the water containing microemulsion. The anisotropy decay in an IL microemulsion is found to be faster than that in neat IL. 相似文献

Excitation wavelength (lambdaex) dependence of solvation dynamics of coumarin 480 (C480) in the micellar core of a water soluble triblock copolymer, PEO20-PPO70-PEO20 (Pluronic P123), is studied by femtosecond and picosecond time resolved emission spectroscopies. In the P123 micelle, the width of the emission spectrum of C480 is found to be much larger than that in bulk water. This suggests that the P123 micelle is more heterogeneous than bulk water. The steady state emission maximum of C480 in P123 micelle shows a significant red edge excitation shift by 25 nm from 453 nm at lambdaex=345 nm to 478 nm at lambdaex=435 nm. The solvation dynamics in the interior of the triblock copolymer micelle is found to depend strongly on the excitation wavelength. The excitation wavelength dependence is ascribed to a wide distribution of locations of C480 molecules in the P123 micelle with two extreme environments-a bulklike peripheral region with very fast solvent response and a very slow core region. With increase in lambdaex, contribution of the bulklike region having an ultrafast component (< or =2 ps) increases from 7% at lambdaex=375 nm to 78% at lambda(ex)=425 nm while the contribution of the ultraslow component (4500 ps) decreases from 79% to 17%. 相似文献

Femtosecond solvation dynamics of coumarin 480 (C480) in a mixed micelle is reported. The mixed micelle consists of a triblock copolymer (PEO)20-(PPO) 70-(PEO)20 (Pluronic P123) and an ionic liquid (IL), 1-pentyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([pmim][BF4]). At a low concentration (0.3 M), the sparingly water soluble IL ([pmim][BF4]) penetrates the hydrophobic PPO core of the P123 micelles. Thus emission maximum of C480 in the core (accessed at lambdaex=375 nm) in 0.3 M IL is red-shifted by 8 nm from that in its absence and the red edge excitation shift (REES) is large (19+/-1 nm). At a high concentration (0.9 M), the ionic liquid [pmim][BF4] invades both the core and corona region and the mixed micelle exhibits very small REES (3+/-1 nm). Anisotropy decay and solvation dynamics in different regions of the mixed micelle are studied by variation of excitation wavelength (lambda ex). In P123 micelle, the average rotational time () is 2800 ps in the core (at lambdaex=375 nm) and 1350 ps in the corona region (at lambdaex=435 nm). In 0.3 M [pmim][BF4], tau rot at the core of the mixed micelle decreases to 1950 ps while that in the corona remains unaffected. In 0.9 M IL, both the core and corona (lambda ex=375 and 435 nm) exhibit similar and short approximately 600 ps. In 0.3 M IL, solvation dynamics in the core region (lambdaex=375 nm) of P123 micelle is about 2 times faster than in its absence. In 0.3 M IL, solvation dynamics in the corona region (lambdaex=435 nm) is approximately 100 times faster than that in the core. In 0.9 M IL, the solvation dynamics in the core and in the corona is, respectively, approximately 9 times and 4 times faster than that in 0.3 M IL. 相似文献

Variable temperature 2H-NMR T1 experiments were performed on backbone deuterated atactic polystyrene in four solvents at two Larmor frequencies. Temperature-frequency superposition, which is consistent with experimental results for many other polymers, cannot describe our data. This indicates that the shape of the correlation function for C-D vector reorientation is temperature dependent. A modified log χ2 distribution, of relaxation times, i.e., a delta function plus a log χ2 distribution, was used to fit the experimental data. These fits are consistent with literature 13C T1 and NOE data. As polystyrene local dynamics slow down by a factor of 5, the FWHM of the log χ2 distribution increases from 0.8 to 1.1 decades. Solvent identity does not play a major role in determining the shape of the correlation function. The fraction of the correlation function decay caused by librational motion was determined to be 0.28. The quantity was compared for series of polymers and found to correlate with the size of the side group. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 35 : 1241–1250, 1997 相似文献

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from coumarin 480 (C480) to fluorescein 548 (F548) in a sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelle is studied by picosecond and femtosecond emission spectroscopy. In bulk water, at the low concentration of the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548), no FRET is observed. However, when the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548) are confined in a AOT reverse micelle very fast FRET is observed. The time constants of FRET were obtained from the rise time of the emission of the acceptor (F548). In a AOT microemulsion, FRET is found to occur in multiple time scales--3, 200, and 2700 ps. The 3 ps component is assigned to FRET in the water pool of the reverse micelle with a donor-acceptor distance, 16 A. The 200 ps component corresponds to a donor-acceptor distance of 30 A and is ascribed to the negatively charged acceptor inside the water pool and the neutral donor inside the alkyl chains of AOT. The very long 2700 ps component may arise due to FRET from a donor outside the micelle to an acceptor inside the water pool and also from diffusion of the donor from bulk heptane to the reverse micelle. With increase in the excitation wavelength from 375 to 405 nm the relative contribution of the FRET due to C480 in the AOT reverse micelle (the 3 and 200 ps components) increases. 相似文献

The excited-state triple proton relay of 7-hydroxyquinoline (7HQ) along a hydrogen-bonded methanol chain in room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) has been investigated using picosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The rate constant of the proton relay in a methanol-added RTIL is found to be slower by an order of magnitude than that in bulk methanol and to have unity in its kinetic isotope effect. These suggest that the excited-state tautomerization dynamics of 7HQ in methanol-added RTILs is mainly controlled by the solvent reorganization dynamics to form a cyclically hydrogen-bonded complex of 7HQ·(CH(3)OH)(2) upon absorption of a photon due to high viscosity values of RTILs. Because the cyclic complex of 7HQ·(CH(3)OH)(2) at the ground state is unstable in RTILs, the collision-induced slow formation of the cyclic complex should take place upon excitation prior to undergoing subsequent intrinsic proton transfer rapidly. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that the direction and magnitude of transition dipole moments, and hence rates in the excitation energy hopping in the self-assembled porphyrin boxes can be tuned by insertion of ethynyl groups as well as the dielectric constant of solvent. 相似文献

The excited-state symmetry and molecular reorientation of perylene, 1,7-diazaperylene, and 2,5,8,11-tetra- tert-butylperylene have been studied by different fluorescence depolarization experiments. The first excited electronic singlet state was reached through one-photon excitation (OPE) and two-photon excitation (TPE). A 400 and 800 nm femtosecond laser pulse was used for this purpose, and data were collected by means of the time-correlated single-photon counting technique. It is found that the rotational correlation times for each perylene derivative are very similar in the OPE and TPE depolarization experiments. For the determination of the two-photon absorption tensor, a recently described theoretical model has been applied (Ryderfors et al. J. Phys. Chem. A 2007, 111, 11531). It was found that the two-photon process can be described by a 2 x 2 absorption tensor for which the components are solvent dependent and exhibit mixed vibronic character. In the dipole approximation this is compatible with a parity-forbidden two-photon absorption into the first excited singlet state. 相似文献

The excited-state dynamics of a donor-acceptor phenol-pyridinium biaryl cation was investigated in various solvents by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and temperature dependent steady-state emission measurements. After excitation to a near-planar Franck-Condon delocalized excited S(1)(DE) state with mesomeric character, three fast relaxation processes are well resolved: solvation, intramolecular rearrangement leading to a twisted charge-shift (CSh) S(1) state with localized character, and excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) to the solvent leading to the phenoxide-pyridinium zwitterion. The proton transfer kinetics depends on the proton accepting character of the solvent whereas the interring torsional kinetics depends on the solvent polarity and viscosity. In nitriles, ESPT does not occur and interring twisting arises with no significant intrinsic barrier, but still slower than solvation. The CSh state is notably fluorescent. In alcohols and water, ESPT is faster than the solvation and DE → CSh relaxation processes and yields the zwitterion hot ground state, which strongly quenches the fluorescence. In THF, solvation and interring twisting occur first, leading to the fully relaxed, weakly fluorescent CSh state, followed by slow ESPT towards the zwitterion. At low temperature (77 K), the large viscous barrier of the solvent inhibits the torsional relaxation but ESPT still arises to some extent. Strong emission from the DE geometry and planar zwitterion is thus observed. Finally, quantum chemical calculations were performed on the ground and excited state of model phenol-pyridinium and phenoxide-pyridinium compounds. Strong S(1) state energy stabilization is predicted upon twisting in both cases, consistent with a fast relaxation towards the perpendicular geometry. A substantial S(0)-S(1) energy gap is still present for the twisted cationic species, which can explain the long-lived emission of the CSh state in nitriles. A quite different situation arises with the zwitterion for which the S(0)-S(1) energy gap predicted at the twisted geometry is very small. This suggests a close-lying conical intersection and can account for the strong fluorescence quenching observed in solvents where the zwitterion is produced by ESPT. 相似文献

Selective laser excitation removes an inhomogeneous width in wideband luminescence spectra of solid solutions of biogenous porphyrins resulting in spectra consisting of narrow zero-phonon lines and phonon sidebands. The effect depends strongly on excitation frequency and disappears gradually upon increasing this frequency within the inhomogeneously broadened pure electronic transition band. 相似文献

It is shown that the thermal lens signal of fluorescein in aqueous solutions depends on the molecular form of the solute even after correction for fluorescence. Possible factors that may affect the thermal lens response are photochemical reactions and vibration-to-translation energy transfer from the solute to the solvent. These are considered in relation to the existence of excited-state proton transfer reactions. 相似文献

The excited-state dynamics of a series of Wurster's salts (p-phenylenediamine radical cations) with different subtituents on the nitrogen atoms was investigated under a variety of experimental conditions using a combination of ultrafast spectroscopic techniques. At room temperature, the lifetime of the lowest excited state of all radical cations is on the order of 200 fs, independently of the solvent, that is, water, nitriles, alcohols, and room-temperature ionic liquid. On the other hand, all cations, except that with the bulky nitrogen substituents, become fluorescent below 120 K. The observed dynamics can be accounted for by the presence of a conical intersection between the D(1) and D(0) states. For the cations with a small nitrogen substituent, this conical intersection could be accessed through a twist of one amino group, as already suggested for Wurster's Blue. However, this coordinate cannot be invoked for the cation with bulky nitrogen subtituents, and more probably, pyramidalization of the nitrogen center and/or deformation of the phenyl ring play an important role. Consequently, the excited-state dynamics of these structurally very similar Wurster's salts involves different decay mechanisms. 相似文献

Luminescence emission and excitation spectra have been obtained for DNA films at 77 K under vacuum ultraviolet excitation (150–280 nm). The emission spectra, which cover the wavelength range 310 to 490 nm, consists of two components, a short-lived component around 350 nm which is attributed to fluorescence and a longer-lived component around 410 nm believed to be phosphorescence. The excitation spectra, as functions of emission wavelength, are similar in profile with a fairly broad peak around 9240–260 nm) with a shoulder around 200 nm followed by a gradual but constant decrease into the vacuum ultraviolet region of the spectrum. No evidence of autoionization was seen in the region investigated. 相似文献

The triblock copolymer (PEO)20-(PPO)70-(PEO)20 (P123) forms a supramolecular aggregate with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The solvation dynamics and anisotropy decay of coumarin 480 (C480) in different regions of a P123-SDS aggregate are studied through variation of the excitation wavelength (lambdaex) using femtosecond upconversion. In a P123 micelle, because of the drastic differences in polarity between the hydrophilic corona region (PEO block) and the hydrophobic PPO core, C480 exhibits a pronounced red edge excitation shift (REES) of emission maximum by 24 nm. In the P123-SDS aggregate, SDS penetrates the core of the P123 micelle. This increases the polarity of the core and reduces the difference in the polarity between the core and the corona region. In a P123-SDS aggregate, the REES is much smaller (5 nm) which suggests a reduced difference between the core and the corona. Solvation dynamics in a P123 micelle displays a bulklike ultrafast component (<0.3 and 1 ps) in the PEO corona region, a 200 ps component arising from dynamics of polymer segments, and a very long component (5000 or 3000 ps) due to the highly restricted PPO core. In a P123-SDS aggregate, at lambdaex = 375 and 405 nm, the solvation dynamics is found to be faster than that in P123 micelle. In this case, the component (3000 ps) arising from the core region is faster than that (5000 ps) in P123 micelle. In both P123 micelle and P123-SDS aggregate, the relative contribution of the core region decreases and that of the corona region increases with an increase in lambdaex. At lambdaex = 435 nm, which probes the hydrophilic corona, the solvation dynamics for both P123 micelle and P123-SDS aggregate are almost similar. 相似文献

The excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) reaction of the "super"photoacid N-methyl-6-hydroxyquinolinium (MHQ) was studied using both fluorescence upconversion and time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) techniques. The ultrafast ESPT kinetics were investigated in various alcohols and water and determined to be solvent-controlled. The ESPT temperature dependence of MHQ was also studied in various alcohols and compared to that observed for another "super"photoacid, 5,8-dicyano-2-naphthol (DCN2). A full set of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters describing the ESPT was obtained. The protolytic photodissociation rate constant for MHQ was higher than that for DCN2, while the ESPT activation energies of MHQ were smaller. These findings are attributed to the approximately 3 orders of magnitude differences in excited-state acidities of MHQ and DCN2. 相似文献

Merocyanine (MC) isomers that are formed after absorption of a UV photon by 1',3'-dihydro-1',3'-3'-trimethyl-6-nitrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2',2'-(2H)-indole] were studied. Several, predominantly TTC and TTT, merocyanine isomers are present in toluene solution ("T" and "C" indicate trans and cis conformations of the C-C bonds in the methine bridge). Excitation in the MC visible absorption band (at 490, 550, and 630 nm) with 100 fs laser pulses was used to study MC excited-state dynamics. Internal conversion on the picosecond time scale was found to be the dominant relaxation pathway. Excited-state isomerization reactions were also observed. Excitation at 630 nm (assigned to TTC isomer excitation) leads to formation of a third isomer (either CTC or CTT). Excitation at 490 nm (assigned to TTT isomer excitation) leads to more complex excited-state relaxation, including formation of two isomers: TTC (absorption at 600 nm) and CTC or CTT (absorption at 650 nm). 相似文献

The quantum yield for the cis—trans photoisomerization of chalcone (1,3-diphenylpropen-3-one) is wavelength dependent. At 313 nm the trans-to-cis quantum yield is 0.36 and the cis-to-trans quantum yield is 0.135. At 366 nm the trans-to-cis quantum yield is 0.48 and the cis-to-trans quantum yield is 0.23. These values were not affected by changes in the concentration of chalcone or by the presence of oxygen. A comparison with the literature data is made and reasons for the quantum inefficiency and the wavelength dependence are discussed. 相似文献
