β¦ Synopsis
Inhomogeneous broadening of the electronic transitions of dyes in glycerol solutions have been observed by measuring the energy-resolved fluorescence decays as a function of excitation wavelength. The inhomogeneous broadening is shown to arise from a range of solvent-solute orientations, rather than solute conformational distributions. The time-resolved fluorescence data are readily interpreted in terms of a conventional model of inhomogeneous broadening with the inclusion of excited state solventsolute reorientation. Implications for studies of the dynamic solvation shift are briefly discussed.

## Abstract Fluorescence rise and decay processes were measured and rate parameters were determined for the pyreneβtriβ__n__βbutylamine and pyreneβN,Nβdiethylaniline exciplex system in various solvents. An additional activation energy over that for the diffusional motion appears necessary for both
By means of time-resolved total internal reflection (TIR) fluorescence measurements, rise and decay profiles of the pyrene excimer fluorescence were examined in toluene containing 3.3x 10e4 mol dm-" of poly(methy1 methacrylate) (PMMA, MW= 120000). In addition to a reduction of the fluorescence inten
A time-resolved ENDOR spectrum of the triplet state of the primary donor of photosystem II in isolated reaction centers has been obtained at cryogenic temperatures. Selective excitation of donor molecules, which have their z triplet axes parallel to the magnetic field, has permitted the measurement
