Aa. Krasnovsky et Cs. Foote, TIME-RESOLVED MEASUREMENTS OF SINGLET OXYGEN DIMOL-SENSITIZED LUMINESCENCE, Journal of the American Chemical Society, 115(14), 1993, pp. 6013-6016
Using fullerenes C60 and C70 as photosensitizers, time-resolved measur
ements of phthalocyanine luminescence sensitized by singlet oxygen dim
ols have been carried out in hexafluorobenzene, benzene-d6, and methyl
ene chloride. The data suggest that dimol-sensitized luminescence can
be observed under many different conditions. Fullerenes photosensitize
formation of both monomols and dimols of singlet oxygen in solution.
