β¦ Synopsis
The absorption and emission properties of rhodamine 101 in polar, aprotic propionitrile-butyronitrile (45 v/v) solvent have been investigated. The equilibrium between the neutral zwitterionic and lactonic (colourless) forms is strongly affected by the temperature in the range 293-144 K. In dilute solution ( 1.12 x 1 O-' M) , at room temperature the lactonic form is 98%, whine at 144 K the zwitterionic form predominates, being 79%. These findings are discussed in terms of differential stabilization of the lactonic and zwitterionic forms through non-specific solute-solvent interactions involving the COO-group.

High pressure (0-30 kbar) is used to investigate the effect of increased density on the temperature-dependent optical dephasing of rhodamine 101 (Rhl01) in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Photon echo measurements have been performed on Rhl01-doped PMMA at temperatures between 1.2 and 2.1 K at pressu
