Mechanism for triple-state concentration quenching in xanthene dyes

This paper studies the mechanism for the concentration self-quenching of the triplet states in the luminophores containing the internal heavy atoms. Two xanthene dyes have been chosen as objects of the study: eosin (FlBr/sup 2 -//sub 4/) and erythrosin (FlI/sup 2 -//sub 4/). The delayed fluorescence dependences, optical density changes, and phosphorescence intensity on dye concentration in the ground state are presented at room temperature. The identical values of the rate constants for erythrosin at low concentrations indicate that the annihilation is less effective than the triplet deactivation route as compared to eosin.
