SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA PART A-MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY, cilt.61, sa.5, ss.983-987, 2005 (SCI-Expanded)
An ultraviolet light-induced photophysical and Photochemical changes of coumarm-481 in cyclohexane have been studied by photolysis technique at room temperature, due to its potential applications in photonics, photochemistry, and electronic spectroscopy. During the optical pumping, coumarin-481 showed photochemical changes, therefore as the concentration of coumarin-481 decreased, a photoproduct concentration increased rapidly. An absorption band of the product was observed at around 250 nm. Photoproduct emission spectra characteristics show that photoproduct molecules can also be used as a laser-dye at different emission frequency. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
