Abstract
Picosecond fluorescence decay is observed in a new family of dendrimers con structed from 4,4'-bis(diphenylamino)stilbene repeat units. The rate of the decay is shown to depend on detection wavelength and the generation number in such a way that the energy of accepting states gradually lowers with th e generation number. These observations can be consistently described in te rms of the fast energy transfer from initially created localized states to more delocalized ones. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
