Kinetics of the Decay of Prolonged Luminescence of Disordered Chrysene under the Conditions of Nonequilibrium Transfer of Energy

We present the results obtained in investigation of the decay of the prolonged luminescence of disordered chrysene in a microsecond range. At the temperature of liquid nitrogen, a highly nonexponential decay of both phosphorescence and annihilation of delayed fluorescence is observed. The observed character of decay is due to relaxation of the energy of electronic excitation in a system of energydisordered centers, when the value of kT is much smaller than the width of the excitedstate energy distribution. At the same time, in the system investigated there is a classical relationship between phosphorescence and delayed fluorescence, i.e., the rate coefficient for the reaction of triplettriplet annihilation is a constant.
