Summary

The triplet-triplet annihilation of mass fractionatedPVCA (M=3.6·103−1.4·106) in toluene glasses was studied by phosphorescence, for glasses ofPVCA andP2VN (order of M=106) inMTHF the intensity of phosphorescence and delayed fluorescence were studied as a function of the excitation intensity. A survey of T-T annihilation in solid solutions of aromatic polymers is given and requirements for a theory explaining low dimensional energy transport and exciton-exciton annihilation are pointed out.

Zusammenfassung

Die Triplet-Triplet-Auslöschung von nach Masse fraktioniertenPVCA (M=3.6·103−1.4·106)-Toluol-Gläsern wurde mittels Phosphoreszenzmessungen untersucht, für Gläser vonPVCA undP2VN (M im Bereich 106) inMTHF wurde die Intensität der Phosphoreszenz und der verzögerten Fluoreszenz als Funktion der Anregungs-intensität untersucht. Es wird ein Überblick über T-T-Auslöschung in festen Lösungen aromatischer Polymerer gegeben und die Voraussetzungen für eine Theorie des Energietransportes und der Exciton-Exciton-Auslöschung diskutiert.
