β¦ Synopsis
The photophysical behavior of biphenylene has been investigated employing picosecond time-resolved absorption measurements over the range 400-760 nm. The temporal behavior of the different absorption maxima suggest that the transient absorption results from two different configurations of biphenylene. It is estimated that the configuration changes within I S-30 ps after excitation. The lifetime of the relaxed emitting state of the compound is measured to be 245 k 15 ps.

Picosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectra of all-trans retinal in hexane have been measured with 8 ps time-resolution with use of a highly sensitive streak camera. The observed fluorescence consists of a fast (r < 1 ps, ,h.ma x m 470 nm) and a slow (r = 33-34 ps, Ama x --540 nm) component. The l
Transient absorption spectra of 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole (HBT) were studied in various solvents after picosecond excitation, Strong absorption bands are observed in the wavelength range from 400 to 500 nm. The kinetics of the absorption change consists of a first component with a decay time
