Abstract

The influence of the organic molecule (naphthalene, acenaphthene, and benzophenone) concentration in toluene at 77 K on the phosphorescence parameters of degassed and non-degassed solutions is studied for organic molecule concentrations ranging from 0.025 to 0.8 M. The migration-accelerated quenching of triplet excitations of naphthalene and acenaphthene by oxygen molecules is established. A conclusion is drawn that this quenching mechanism can be one of the main reasons for the influence of the concentration on the phosphorescence parameters of impurity centers in non-degassed solid solutions of organic compounds at 77 K.
