Abstract
The temporal changes of the optical transmission, in photosensitive solutio ns containing chlorophyll (Chl) were monitored. Specifically, Chl-a solutio ns in ethanol sensitive to visible and UV spectrum were used to quantify an d analyze the surface film photodeposition and volume photobleaching phenom ena occurring in these systems. SEM microscopy revealed the microstructure of the deposited films. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
