Aiming for better understanding of the large complexity of excited-state processes in carotenoids, we have studied the excitation wavelength dependence of the relaxation dynamics in the carotenoid zeaxanthin. Excitation into the lowest vibrational band of the S2 state at 485 nm, into the 0-3 vibrational band of the S2 state at 400 nm, and into the 2B(u)+ state at 266 nm resulted in different relaxation patterns. While excitation at 485 nm produces the known four-state scheme (S2 --> hot S1 --> S1 --> S0), excess energy excitation led to additional dynamics occurring with a time constant of 2.8 ps (400 nm excitation) and 4.9 ps (266 nm excitation), respectively. This process is ascribed to a conformational relaxation of conformers generated by the excess energy excitation. The zeaxanthin S state was observed regardless of the excitation wavelength, but its population increased after 400 and 266 nm excitation, suggesting that conformers generated by the excess energy excitation are important for directing the population toward the S state. The S2-S1 internal conversion time was shortened from 135 to 70 fs when going from 485 to 400 nm excitation, as a result of competition between the S2-S1 internal conversion from the vibrationally hot S2 state and S2 vibrational relaxation. The S1 lifetime of zeaxanthin was within experimental error the same for all excitation wavelengths, yielding approximately 9 ps. No long-lived species have been observed after excitation by femtosecond pulses regardless of the excitation wavelength, but excitation by nanosecond pulses at 266 nm generated both zeaxanthin triplet state and cation radical.  相似文献

The photophysical properties of 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (HDMB) in various solvents, pH and in aqueous beta-cyclodextrin (CD) have been investigated. In non-polar solvents, HDMB gives only one emission maxima; whereas, in polar solvents it shows a dual luminescence. The increase in Stokes shift with increase in polarity is much more for longer wavelength (LW) than for a shorter wavelength (SW) band. This behaviour indicates the formation of an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) state through relaxation from the normal excited state. Especially in water, the ICT emission is further red shifted to 430 nm with the normal emission band at 330 nm and the relative fluorescence intensities between 330 nm and 430 nm emission bands are affected by the excitation wavelength. However, this excitation wavelength dependence is not large in aqueous beta-CD solutions. These results suggest that the ICT state in polar solvents/water is stabilized through exciplex formation by the hydrogen-bonding interaction between the carbonyl group and polar solvents/water. The ground and excited state pK(a) values for the neutral-monoanion equilibrium have been measured and discussed. HDMB forms a 1:1 inclusion complex with beta-CD. A mechanism is proposed to explain the inclusion process.  相似文献

Red to blue tunable upconversion in Tm3+-doped ZrO2 nanocrystals   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The effect of dopant concentration on the blue upconversion (UPC) emission of Tm(3+) -doped ZrO(2) nanocrystals under different excitation wavelengths in the red region is reported. The UPC emissions are due to the f-f electronic transitions from excited states (1)G(4) and (1)D(2) of Tm(3+). We observed a chromatic change in the UPC with tuning the excitation wavelength. The UPC emission bands at 475, 488, and 501 nm are observed under excitation at 649 nm, but bands centered at 454 and 460 nm are observed when the excitation wavelength is tuned to 655 nm. The UPC emission could be tuned from 501 to 454 nm ( approximately 47 nm) by changing the excitation wavelength from 649 to 655 nm ( approximately 6 nm). The pump power dependence of the emission bands at 475, 488, and 501 nm were investigated on excitation intensity at 649 nm, and the emission bands at 454 and 460 nm are investigated on excitation intensity at 655 nm, which confirms that all of these UPC emission lines are a two-photon absorption process.  相似文献

The speed averaged translational anisotropy and electronic angular momentum polarization of the O(1D2) atomic fragment formed from the photodissociation of ozone in the atmospherically important long wavelength region of the Hartley band (298 to 320 nm) have been measured using resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization time of flight mass spectrometry. The translational anisotropy parameter, beta, is found to decline from 1.1 for photolysis at 300 nm to a minimum value of 0 at 310 nm which is the threshold for production of O(1D2) in conjunction with the O2(a 1Deltag v = 0) molecular cofragment. For photolysis wavelengths greater than 310 nm, O(1D2) is formed from the dissociation of internally excited ozone molecules. The corresponding beta parameters are markedly lower than for atomic fragments produced with the same speed from the photolysis of ground state ozone molecules. This result is consistent with two different pathways contributing to the photolysis of internally excited ozone at the longest wavelengths studied corresponding to initial internal excitation either in the symmetric or asymmetric stretching vibration. In addition, the polarization of the atomic angular momentum has been determined with the incoherent polarization parameters a0(2)(||) and a0(2)(_|) increasing from values of -0.53 and -0.62 at 300 nm to -0.37 and -0.19 at 317 nm, consistent with the increasing contribution from the photolysis of internally excited ozone as the dissociation wavelength lengthens. Evaluation of these alignment parameters allows the populations of the magnetic substrates, mj, to be determined. For example, for a photolysis wavelength of 303 nm the populations of mj = 0, +/- 1, +/- 2 are in the ratio of 0.36: 0.56: 0.08 and this ratio is essentially independent of the photolysis wavelength. The coherent contribution to the atomic polarization is quantified by the Re{a1(2)(||, _|)} and Im{a1(1)(||, _|)} parameters and these are found to vary from -0.21 and 0.21 at 300 nm to -0.04 and 0.24 at 313 nm, respectively.  相似文献

Transient absorption difference spectra in the Qy absorption band of bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) g and in the 670 nm absorption band of the primary acceptor A0 in membranes of Heliobacillus mobilis (Hc. mobilis) were measured at 20 K upon selective excitation at 668, 793, 810, and 815 nm with a 5 nm spectral bandwidth. When excited at 793 nm, the spectral equilibration of excitations from shorter to longer wavelength-absorbing pigments occurred within 3 ps and mostly localized at the band centered around 808 nm. When excited at 668 nm, the excitation energy transfer from the 670 nm absorbing pigment to the Qy band of BChl g took less than 0.5 ps, and the energy redistribution occurred and localized at 808 nm as in the case of the 793 nm excitation. All of the excitations were localized at the long wavelength pigment pool centered around 810 or 813 nm when excited at 810 or 815 nm. A slower energy transfer process with a time constant of 15 ps was also observed within the pool of long wavelength-absorbing pigments upon selective excitation at different wavelengths as has been observed by Lin et al. (Biophys. J. 1994, 67, 2479) when excited at 590 nm. Energy transfer from long wavelength antenna molecules to the primary electron donor P798 followed by the formation of P+ took place with a time constant of 55-70 ps for all excitations. Direct excitation of the primary electron acceptor A0, which absorbed at 670 nm, showed the same kinetic behavior as in the case when different forms of antenna pigments were excited in the Qy region. This observation generally supports the trapping-limited case of energy transfer in which the excitations have high escape probability from the reaction center (RC) until the charge separation takes place. Possible mechanisms to account for the apparent "uphill" energy transfer from the long wavelength antenna pigments to P798 are discussed.  相似文献

The combination of remote/standoff sensing and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy shows potential for detection of uranyl (UO2(2+)) compounds. Uranyl compounds exhibit characteristic emission in the 450-600 nm (22,200 to 16,700 cm(-1)) spectral region when excited by wavelengths in the ultraviolet or in the short-wavelength portion of the visible spectrum. We report a parametric study of the effects of excitation wavelength [including 532 nm (18,797 cm(-1)), 355 nm (28,169 cm(-1)), and 266 nm (37,594 cm(-1))] and excitation laser power on solid-state uranium compounds. The uranium compounds investigated include uranyl nitrate, uranyl sulfate, uranyl oxalate, uranium dioxide, triuranium octaoxide, uranyl acetate, uranyl formate, zinc uranyl acetate, and uranyl phosphate. We observed the characteristic uranyl fluorescence spectrum from the uranium compounds except for uranium oxide compounds (which do not contain the uranyl moiety) and for uranyl formate, which has a low fluorescence quantum yield. Relative uranyl fluorescence intensity is greatest for 355 nm excitation, and the order of decreasing fluorescence intensity with excitation wavelength (relative intensity/laser output) is 355 nm > 266 nm > 532 nm. For 532 nm excitation, the emission spectrum is produced by two-photon excitation. Uranyl fluorescence intensity increases linearly with increasing laser power, but the rate of fluorescence intensity increase is different for different emission bands.  相似文献

The roaming dynamics in the photodissociation of acetaldehyde is studied through the first absorption band, in the wavelength interval ranging from 230 nm to 325 nm. Using a combination of the velocity-map imaging technique and rotational resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy of the CO fragment, the branching ratio between the canonical transition state and roaming dissociation mechanisms is obtained at each of the photolysis wavelengths studied. Upon one photon absorption, the molecule is excited to the first singlet excited S(1) state, which, depending on the excitation wavelength, either converts back to highly vibrationally excited ground S(0) state or undergoes intersystem crossing to the first excited triplet T(1) state, from where the molecule can dissociate over two main channels: the radical (CH(3) + HCO) and the molecular (CO + CH(4)) channels. Three dynamical regions are characterized: in the red edge of the absorption band, at excitation energies below the T(1) barrier, the ratio of the roaming dissociation channel increases, largely surpassing the transition state contribution. As the excitation wavelength is increased, the roaming propensity decreases reaching a minimum at wavelengths ~308 nm. Towards the blue edge, at 230 nm, an upper limit of ~50% has been estimated for the contribution of the roaming channel. The experimental results are interpreted in terms of the interaction between the different potential energy surfaces involved by means of ab initio stationary points and intrinsic reaction coordinate paths calculations.  相似文献

Steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy techniques were employed to study the excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) to water and D(2)O from QCy7, a recently synthesized near-infrared (NIR)-emissive dye with a fluorescence band maximum at 700 nm. We found that the ESPT rate constant, k(PT), of QCy7 excited from its protonated form, ROH, is ~1.5 × 10(12) s(-1). This is the highest ever reported value in the literature thus far, and it is comparable to the reciprocal of the longest solvation dynamics time component in water, τ(S) = 0.8 ps. We found a kinetic isotope effect (KIE) on the ESPT rate of ~1.7. This value is lower than that of weaker photoacids, which usually have KIE value of ~3, but comparable to the KIE on proton diffusion in water of ~1.45, for which the average time of proton transfer between adjacent water molecules is similar to that of QCy7.  相似文献

We perform an experimental and theoretical study on some pyrrolyl-izoxazole derivatives with single bridged donor (D) and acceptor (A) moieties, potentially Twisted Intramolecular Charge Transfer (TICT) state forming compounds. The emission spectra in solvent of different polarities and at different excitation wavelengths were performed. The fluorescence quantum yield is very low and the emission band shifts towards long wavelengths in polar solvents and on increasing the excitation wavelength. Solvent dependent semiempirical calculations were performed. The ground and excited states potential energy surfaces were built in terms of the torsion angle about the single bond joining D and A. The ground states have quasiplanar geometry, but the minimum of the excited states corresponds to the orthogonal conformation, stabilised in methanol due to the large charge separation between the D and A fragments. The possibility of forming TICT excited states for the studied pyrrolyl derivatives is discussed.  相似文献

The response of wild-type GFP to UV and visible light was investigated using steady state absorption, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopies. As reported previously [van Thor, Nat. Struct. Biol. 2002, 9, 37-41], irradiation of GFP results in decarboxylation of E222. Here it is reported that the rate of the light-driven decarboxylation reaction strongly depends on the excitation wavelength, decreasing in the order 254 nm > 280 nm > 476 nm. The relative efficiencies of decarboxylation are explained in terms of the Kolbe-type mechanism in which the excited state of the chromophore acts as an oxidant by accepting an electron from E222. Specifically, it is proposed that 254 nm excitation populates the S2 (or higher) excited state of the chromophore, whereas 404 and 476 nm excitation populate the S1 excited state of neutral and anionic forms, respectively, and that the relative oxidizing power of the three excited states controls the rate of the decarboxylation reaction. In addition, the role of W57 in the photophysics of GFP has been probed by mutating this residue to phenylalanine. These studies reveal that while W57 does not affect decarboxylation, this residue is involved in resonance energy transfer with the chromophore, thereby partially explaining the green fluorescence observed upon UV irradiation of wild-type GFP. Finally, comparison of Raman spectra obtained from nonilluminated and decarboxylated forms of wild-type GFP has provided further vibrational band assignments for neutral and anionic forms of the chromophore within the protein. In addition, these spectra provide valuable insight into the specific interactions between the protein and the chromophore that control the optical properties of wild-type GFP.  相似文献

Ion imaging methods have been used to explore the photodissociation dynamics of state-selected H(2)S(+) and D(2)S(+) cations. Predissociation following one photon excitation to the A (2)A(1) state at wavelengths (385< or =lambda(phot)< or =420 nm) in the vicinity of the first dissociation threshold results in formation of ground state S(+) fragment ions; the partner H(2)(D(2)) fragments are deduced to be rotationally "cold." Two photon dissociation processes are also observed, resonance enhanced at the energy of one absorbed photon by the predissociating A state levels. Two photon excitation at these wavelengths is deduced to populate an excited state of (2)A(1) symmetry, which dissociates to electronically excited S(+)((2)D) products, together with vibrationally excited H(2)(D(2)) cofragments. Ground state SH(+)(SD(+)) fragments, attributable to a one photon dissociation process, are observed once lambda(phot)< or =325 nm. Two photon induced production of SH(+)(SD(+)) fragments is also observed, at all wavelengths studied (i.e., at all lambda(phot)< or =420 nm). These SH(+)(SD(+)) fragments are deduced to be formed in their singlet (i.e., a (1)Delta and b (1)Sigma(+)) excited states, with high levels of rotational excitation. The observed product branching and energy disposals are discussed within the context of the (limited) available knowledge relating to the excited electronic states of the H(2)S(+) cation.  相似文献

Ag nanoparticles in water phase have been synthesized employing the electro-exploding wire technique. A surface plasmon peak is observed at 400nm, characteristic of the Ag nanoparticles. A fluorescence emission peak is recorded at 300nm for excitation wavelengths in two different ranges 215-230 and 255-280nm. The position of the fluorescence peak remains fixed, irrespective of the excitation wavelength employed. These are assigned to electronic transition from different higher excited states to d levels of the Ag nanoparticles. In concomitant with these, there are two resonant absorptions at 5.76 and 4.59eV as evident from the fluorescence excitation spectra.  相似文献

Various bisindolylmaleimides have fluorescence emission maxima wavelengths longer than 500 nm, large Stokes shifts longer than 200 nm, different fluorescence emission wavelengths at an excitation wavelength of 365 nm, and a long-lasting chemiluminescence. The expansion of the pi-conjugation, the pi-bond electronic structure, and oxidation of the C=C bond at the 2,3-position of the maleimide moiety are crucial for producing these fluorescence and chemiluminescence properties.  相似文献

Polarized laser photolysis, coupled with resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization detection of O(1D2) and velocity-map ion imaging, has been used to investigate the photodissociation dynamics of ozone at 193 nm. The use of multiple pump and probe laser polarization geometries and probe transitions has enabled a comprehensive characterization of the angular momentum polarization of the O(1D2) photofragments, in addition to providing high-resolution information about their speed and angular distributions. Images obtained at the probe laser wavelength of around 205 nm indicate dissociation primarily via the Hartley band, involving absorption to, and diabatic dissociation on, the B 1B2(3 1A1) potential energy surface. Rather different O(1D2) speed and electronic angular momentum spatial distributions are observed at 193 nm, suggesting that the dominant excitation at these photon energies is to a state of different symmetry from that giving rise to the Hartley band and also indicating the participation of at least one other state in the dissociation process. Evidence for a contribution from absorption into the tail of the Hartley band at 193 nm is also presented. A particularly surprising result is the observation of nonzero, albeit small values for all three rank K = 1 orientation moments of the angular momentum distribution. The polarization results obtained at 193 and 205 nm, together with those observed previously at longer wavelengths, are interpreted using an analysis of the long range quadrupole-quadrupole interaction between the O(1D2) and O2(1Deltag) species.  相似文献

The effect of excitation energy on the lifetimes of the charge-transfer-to-solvent (CTTS) states of small (4 ≤ n ≤ 10) iodide-doped water and alcohol clusters was explored using femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron imaging. Excitation of the CTTS state at wavelengths ranging from 272 to 238 nm leads to the formation of the I···(ROH)(n)(-) (R═H-, CH(3)-, and CH(3)CH(2)-) species, which can be thought of as a vibrationally excited bare solvent cluster anion perturbed by an iodine atom. Autodetachment lifetimes for alcohol-containing clusters range from 1 to 71 ps, while water clusters survive for hundreds of ps in this size range. Autodetachment lifetimes were observed to decrease significantly with increasing excitation energy for a particular number and type of solvent molecules. The application of Klots' model for thermionic emission from clusters to I(-)(H(2)O)(5) and I(-)(CH(3)OH)(7) qualitatively reproduces experimental trends and reveals a high sensitivity to energy parametrization while remaining relatively insensitive to the number of vibrational modes. Experimental and computational results therefore suggest that the rate of electron emission is primarily determined by the energetics of the cluster system rather than by details of molecular structure.  相似文献

The rotational motions of 1-naphthylamine in propylene glycol are investigated by means of steady-state flourescence polarization measurements and differential polarized phase flourometry, on excitation at various wavelengths. For excitation at 370 nm the average rotational rate is faster than for excitation at shorter wavelength and the rotations are clearly anisotropic. On excitation from 370nm to the red edge of the spectrum (390 nm) the average rotational rate slows down by a factor of two and the rotations become nearly isotropic. The results reveal the possible existence of an excited state generated preferentially by excitation at the edge of the absorption, in which the transition moments in both absorption and emission are prependicular to the plane of the aromatic rings.  相似文献

Novel luminous aliphatic polyamides were obtained from a condensation reaction of ethylene diamines and malonyl dichloride in the presence of triethylamine. These polymers appeared in blackish red and reddish orange solids and unusually exhibited a visible light-emission. Their fluorescence properties were significantly dependent on the excitation wavelength, media polarity, and acidity. These polymers emitted fairly strong visible lights in a wide range from blue to near yellow when excited at wavelengths longer than 305 nm. The emission bands significantly shifted to longer wavelengths during the increase in the polarity of the solvent used. Their fluorescence intensities significantly increased under acidic conditions.  相似文献

Fluorescence and laser-flash photolysis measurements have been performed on two pairs of diastereomeric dyads that contain the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (S)- or (R)-flurbiprofen (FBP) and (S)-tryptophan (Trp), which is a relevant amino acid present in site I of human serum albumin. The fluorescence spectra were obtained when subjected to excitation at 266 nm, where approximately 60% of the light is absorbed by FBP and approximately 40% is absorbed by Trp; the most remarkable feature observed in all dyads was a dramatic fluorescence quenching, and the residual emission was assigned to the Trp chromophore. In addition, an exciplex emission was observed as a broad band between 380 and 500 nm, especially in the case of the (R,S) diastereomers. The fluorescence lifetimes (tauF) at lambdaem=340 nm were clearly shorter in the dyads than in Trp-derived model compounds; in contrast, the values of tauF at lambdaem=440 nm (exciplex) were much longer. On the other hand, the typical FBP triplet-triplet transient absorption spectrum was obtained when subjected to laser-flash photolysis, although the signals were less intense than when FBP was directly excited under the same conditions. The main photophysical events in FBP-Trp dyads can be summarized as follows: (1) most of the energy provided by the incident radiation at 266 nm reaches the excited singlet state of Trp (1Trp*), either via direct absorption by this chromophore or by singlet singlet energy transfer from excited FBP (1FBP*); (2) a minor, yet stereoselective deactivation of 1FBP* leads to detectable exciplexes and/or radical ion pairs; (3) the main process observed is intramolecular 1Trp* quenching; and (4) the first triplet excited-state of FBP can be populated by triplet-triplet energy transfer from excited Trp or by back-electron transfer within the charge-separated states.  相似文献

With excitation by the light of the wavelengths longer than 320 nm, fluorescence spectra of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films had somewhat different shapes from those excited below 300 nm through the intrinsic absorption of PET molecules. Also, in the measurements taken with a polarizer in front of the receiving monochoromator but none before the sample, the intensity ratio of parallel (to the draw axis of the film) and perpendicular components of the emission spectra was different if excited above 320 nm or below 300 nm. Discussion was made about the first step of pumping photon energy at the wavelengths above 320 nm. Fluorescence spectra of polyethylene 2,6‐naphthalate films showed a mirror image of their absorption spectra, consisting of one broad band having the same polarization as their absorption spectra. Their fluorescence occurred from the lowest excited level, conforming to the Kasha law. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
