Both a quinoxaline-annelated dimer and a naphthalene-annelated dimer showed excimer-type fluorescence spectra. Excimer-type phosphorescence was observed for the quinoxaline dimer, while the phosphorescence of the naphthalene dimer was not much different from that of the monomer type. In contrast, th
The observation of coherent triplet Frenkel excitons is reported in a molecular crystal 1,2,4.5 tetrachlorobenzene. The results can be interpreted in terms of a one-dimensional model in which the largest intermolecular exchange interaction is associated with the translationally equivalent molecules
A theory of microwave band-to-band transitions in triplet Frenkei excitons in the coherent migration limit for a one-dimensional exciton associated with translationally equivalent molecules is developed. Because of selective spin-orbit coupling to the maw\_ tic sublevels, an anisotropy in the zero f
The technique of femtosecond coherence spectroscopy (FCS) was applied to simple transparent organic fluids (chloroform and fenchone) and light-absorbing heme proteins (myoglobin derivatives). This study demonstrates that time-domain coherence measurements are in good agreement with standard frequenc
