Laser-induced reduction of a dye characterised by a high triplet-state yield and dissolved in a polymer
- Quantum Electronics Division, Krasnoyarsk State University, Krasnoyarsk (Russian Federation)
An investigation was made of the photoreduction kinetics of a dye in a solid polymer solution under the influence of laser radiation corresponding to the band of the first singlet - singlet transition. Participation of higher triplet states was considered in a model of the photoreduction of a dye characterised by a high intersystem crossing yield. An analytic solution was obtained for a system of kinetic equations. This solution takes into account the difference between the photoprocess rates. It is shown that a linear dependence of the effective dye-photoreduction rate on the laser radiation intensity can serve as a test of the participation of higher triplet states in the reaction. A comparison of the theoretical and experimental results obtained in the present study is used to determine the ratio of the photoreduction and deactivation rate constants of the higher triplet state of eosin K.
