Photophysical properties of pyrene, 2,7 diazapyrene and 1,3-bis(beta naphthyl)propane
by Boateng, Stephen, M.S., UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS, 2007, 42 pages; 1449618

Abstract:

The luminescence properties of Van Der Waals' dimers and clusters of pyrene and diazapyrene have been investigated. Excimers, dimeric species which are associative in an excited electronic state and dissociative in their ground state, have long been established and play an important role in many areas of photochemistry. My work here focuses on the luminescence and absorption properties of ground state dimers/aggregates, which are less understood, and allows further characterization of the ground state and excited state association of these aromatic molecules.
