Abstract: | The triplet saturable absorption behaviour of the xanthene dyes eosin Y, erythrosin B, and rose bengal and of the fullerene molecule C70 is studied. The molecules are excited to the S1-state by intense picosecond pulses (wavelength λP=527 nm). They relax dominantly to the triplet system by intersystem crossing. The triplet–triplet saturable absorption is investigated with time-delayed intense picosecond pulses (wavelength λL=1054 nm) in the transparency region of the molecules in the singlet ground state. Higher excited-state triplet absorption cross-sections and higher excited-state triplet relaxation times are determined by numerical simulation of the experimental results. Time-resolved fluorescence measurements reveal higher excited-state triplet to singlet back-intersystem-crossing and multi-step triplet photoionization. Additionally the two-photon absorption cross-sections at λL=1054 nm are determined by measurement of the fundamental pulse two-photon induced fluorescence relative to the second-harmonic pulse single-photon induced fluorescence. |
