Abstract

Intense, short light pulses provided a suitable means of excitation to study the singlet-singlet interaction in aromatic substances. Here, we report the results of an analysis of the temporal decay of naphthalene crystal fluorescence, excited by 25 ps pulses at 266 nm. A good fit is obtained with the prediction of the usual kinetic equations, provided that both the exponential attenuation with depth of the penetrating beam and its radial intensity profile are taken into account.
