Abstract.

Using the photothermal method we measure the fluorescence quantum yield of a rhodamine 101 solution in ethanol for different values of the pump-field fluence. Our experiments reveal a depletion of the fluorescence quantum yield as the pump fluence increases. To explain the observed fluorescence quenching, a dependence of the nonradiative relaxation rates on the field fluence is proposed. Predictions of the model are in good agreement with the experiments.
