The migration of excitation energy of a number of psoralen compounds has been studied. For this, the methods of induced absorption spectroscopy, stationary electron spectroscopy, fluorescence and phosphorescence, as well as quantum chemistry were used. A comparative photostability of psoralen was achieved by exposure to a XeCl excilamp irradiation (emission wavelength λem = 308 nm) with parameters Δλ = 5–10 nm, Wpeak = 18 mW/cm2, p = 8.1 J/cm3, f = 200 kHz, pulse duration 1 μs. It was found that the singlet-triplet transition played a major role in the migration of excitation energy into triplet states. Among all tested compounds, substances with an OCH3-group in the structure have the strongest effect on the spectral-luminescent characteristics.

Thin films formed on surfaces have a large impact on the properties of materials and devices. In this study, a method is proposed using X-ray absorption spectroscopy to derive the film thickness of a thin film formed on a substrate using the spectral separation and logarithmic equation, which is a modified version of the formula used in electron spectroscopy. In the equation, the decay length in X-ray absorption spectroscopy is longer than in electron spectroscopy due to a cascade of inelastic scattering of electrons generated in a solid. The modification factor, representing a multiple of the decay length, was experimentally determined using oxidized Si and Cu with films of thickness 19 nm and 39 nm, respectively. The validity of the proposed method was verified, and the results indicated that the method can be used in the analysis of various materials with thin films.

A theory of the excitation energy transfer between like molecules in isotropic solution based on a centre or shell model of a primarily excited luminescent molecule and on the extended Förster “excitation master equation” has been elaborated. Fluorescence and phosphorescence depolarization are shown to be governed by singlet-singlet energy migration and described by the same expression. The comparison of the theoretical curve with the experimental data obtained by Gondo et al. (1975) for benzo[f]quinoline in ethanol glass at 77 K results in the following critical distance R0 for the excitation energy migration: 21.5 Å for fluorescence and phosphorescence, respectively.

Two polyphenylsilole compounds are characterised using X-ray photoelectron and absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory. In both compounds the positive silicon atom is flanked by two negatively charged carbon atoms.

Complexes trans-Pt(BODIPY)X(PEt3)2 exhibit dual fluorescence and phosphorescence emissions, whose intensities are modulated by the anionic ligand X− and the excitation wavelengths. They constitute efficient single-component 3O2 sensors and photocatalysts for aereal photooxidations with quantum yields near unity.
