H. Huesmann et al., PYRENE PHOSPHOLIPID IN MONOLAYER ASSEMBLIES - PHOTOINDUCED ELECTRON-TRANSFER INVESTIGATED BY TIME-RESOLVED FLUORESCENCE EMISSION, Langmuir, 13(19), 1997, pp. 4929-4932
The lifetimes of the monomer and the excimer of a pyrene phospholipid
in Langmuir-Blodgett films with a counterlayer containing an electron
acceptor are independent of the surface density of the acceptor. Only
when the acceptor is located within a disk of a critical radius undern
eath the donor does a photoinduced electron transfer appear. The amoun
t of free-emitting species is then reduced.
