Recent studies of polymers in solution and in bulk by energy transfer between two fluorescent labels are reviewed. Such studies are concerned with the equilibrium and dynamics of polymer chain expansion, molecular cluster formation in solution, the miscibility of polymers in bulk, and the interdiffusion of polymer latex particles.

The emission spectra and fluorescence decay curves of solid UO2+2- Datura at liquid nitrogen temperature have been measured. The linewidth of the emission peaks of UO2+2 ions in UO2+2- Datura decreases with the UO2+2 concentration. This linewidth broadening phenomenon can be explained by the existence of resonance interactions between adjacent UO2+2- Datura species. The analysis of the emission peak position of the bound ions has been used to provide a measure of the electronic factors contributing to the interaction between the uranyl ion and phosphoryl and dicarboxyl moieties on the cell wall material. An observed blue shift of the uranyl fluorescence spectrum as a function of solution pH has been ascribed to a distortion of the normally linear O-U-O bond. An inter- and intra-molecular nonradiative energy transfer model has been successfully used to interpret the measured lifetime data of UO2+2- Datura.

A series of cross-linked polyurethane samples, labeled with dyes suitable for fluorescence energy transfer experiments, were prepared (donor, phenanthrene; acceptor, anthracene). Fluorescence decay profiles for these samples were measured as a function of acceptor concentration. These decays obey Förster nonradiative energy transfer kinetics, with an energy transfer critical distance (R0) of 26.7 Å. Fluorescence intensities, calculated from the decays by integrating the decay profiles, also fit the Perrin model, with a quenching radius (Rs) of 25.6 Å. The fluorescence decay profiles were further examined with a distribution analysis method, which also revealed uniformly distributed donors and acceptors in the polymer matrices. Keywords: fluorescence quenching, fluorescence decay, phenanthrene, anthracene, polyurethane.
