Abstract: | The photophysics of several triphenylmethane (TPM) dyes has been studied in n-alcohols and glycerol/water solutions. We have been able to measure the rate and characterize the viscosity dependence of several radiationless decay channels. We propose a kinetic scheme to account for our observations. Important points in this model are, the existence of more than one ground-state species (in some dyes), a rapid excited-state equilibrium between states of differing geometry and solvent-induced spectral shifts. |
