LUMINESENCEThe term 'luminescence' was introduced in
1888 by Eilhard Wiedemann .“Luminescence is the emission of light by
a substance. It occurs when an electron returns to the electronic ground state from an excited state and loses it's excess energy as a photon.”
Luminescence spectroscopy is a collective name given to three related spectroscopic techniques. They are; Molecular fluorescence spectroscopy Molecular phosphorescence spectroscopy Chemiluminescence spectroscopy

PHOTOLUMINESENCE “Photoluminescence (PL) is the spontaneous
emission of light from a material under optical excitation.”
It is futher subdivided into two typesa. Flourescenceb. Phosphorescence

ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION IN PHOSPHORESENCE The absorption of a photon of suitable energy
causes the molecule to get excited from the ground state to one of the excited states. This process is called as excitation or activation and is governed by Franck-Condon principle.
According to this principle, the electronic transition takes place so fast (~10-15 s) that the molecule does not get an opportunity to execute a vibration, i.e., when the electrons are excited the internuclear
distance does not change.
• The basis for the principle is that the nuclei are very massive as compared to the electrons and therefore move very slowly.
![Page 5: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• At the ground state , the molecular orbitals are occupied by two electrons. the spins of the two electrons in the same orbital must be antiparallel. This implies that the total spin, S, of the molecule in the ground state is zero [½ + ( ½)].
• This energy state is called “singlet state” and is labeled as S0.
• The electron spins in the excited state achieved by absorption of radiation may either be parallel or antiparallel. Accordingly, this may be a triplet (parallel) or a singlet (antiparallel) state.

The deactivation processes can be broadly categorized into two groups given below.
• Nonradiative deactivation Vibrational Relaxation Internal Conversion Intersystem Crossing
• Radiative deactivation Fluorescence Phosphorescence

FLUORESCENCE AND PHOSPHORESCENCE
Fluorescence Phosphorescence
![Page 10: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
PHOSPHORESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY Phosphorescence Spectroscopy is
the spectroscopic study of the radiation emitted by the lifetime of phosphorescence.
Phosphorescence has been observed from a wide variety of compounds and is differentiated from fluorescence by the long-lived emission of light after extinction of the excitation source. The first analytical uses of phosphorescence were published in 1957 by Kiers et. al.

PHOSPHORIMETRY Spectrophosphorimeter is similar to a
Spectrofluorimeter except that the former instrument must be fitted with
1) a sample system which is maintained at liquid nitrogen temperature2) A Rotating-shutter device commonly called a phosphoroscope and
.
![Page 13: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SAMPLE PREPARATION The majority of phosphorescence measurements are carried
out in rigid media at the temperature of liquid nitrogen The criteria for solvent selection are:
good solubility of the analyte formation of a clear rigid glass at 77 K low phosphorescence background (high purity)
For polar compounds, ethanol is an excellent solvent and small
For non-polar compounds, the most popular solvent is a mixture of diethyl ether, isopentane and ethanol in the ratio of 5:5:2 respectively
The samples are placed in a narrow quartz tube(internal diameter varying from 1 to 3 mm).
The dimensions are a compromise between too small a diameter and too large a diameter.
The sample tubes are placed in liquid nitrogen held in a quartz Dewar flask, and the latter placed in the sample holder known as a phosphoroscope.
![Page 14: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Phosphorescence can also be observed from solid samples at room temperature, and the compounds can be divided into two types.
The first includes inorganic salts and oxides such as the rare earths, europium and uranium
The second type of compounds are those which exhibit phosphorescence when absorbed onto certain substrates such as paper, cellulose, silica, etc. Polar organic molecules, when absorbed onto
filter paper from solutions containing 1 N NaOH and thoroughly dried, exhibit phosphorescence.
Studies have shown that the phosphorescence could be enhanced by the addition of heavy atoms, for example iodine, silver, lead

PHOSPHOROSCOPE
![Page 16: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
INSTRUMENTATION Excitation Source Filters/Monochromators for excitation
radiations Phosphorscope(sample Cell) Filters and Monochromators for emission Detectors
![Page 17: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
EXCITATION SOURCE High intensity source of UV light are used
Lasers – A laser makes it possible to have narrow wavelength intervals that offer very high energy irradiation. This is useful when a large amount of energy is needed to produce the Phosphorescence in the sample.
Photodiodes – Photodiodes are specialized diodes that can be configured in a manner that allows electrons to flow towards the sample so that the excess energy excites the phosphorescent particles.
Xenon Arcs – Arcs of Xenon can produce the right amount of radiation for Phosphorescent materials.
Mercury Vapor – Since mercury vapor can create ultraviolet radiation when electrical current is passed through it, it is good for use with materials that shows Phosphorescence under the ultraviolet radiation.
Care should be taken as Intense UV light is hazardous for health
![Page 18: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Filters and monochromators used in a phosphorimeter device.
Filters Absorption Interfernce
Monochromators allow wavelength adjustment. Monochromators make it possible to do so with a diffraction grating. The primary filters that excite the sample provide the appropriate
wavelength while the secondary filters monochromate the emitted light when sent
to the detector.
Phosphoresence spectroscopy detectors may have a single channel (single wavelength from sample) or multiple channels (multiple wavelengths detection)
![Page 19: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PHOSPHOROSCOPE1.The Becquerel or rotating disc
phosphoroscope A rotating disk excitation optical chopper, with three
open and three larger opaque areas, is used to alternately excite the sample and allow phosphorescence to be measured.
By measuring the phosphorescence intensity at several time intervals along the emission decay curve, a recorder trace of the decay with respect to time can be produced.
The analytical precision and accuracy for quantitative measurements is improved by rotating the sample tube. This minimizes variation in the signal due to sample inhomogeniety resulting from imperfect glass formation at lowtemperatures .
![Page 20: Phosphorimetry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081420/557d24a4d8b42a80608b4722/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2.The Rotating-Can Phosphoroscope: It consists of hollow cylinder having one or more slit which are
equally spaced in the circumference. This is rotated by a variable-speed motor(>1000rpm) when the rotating-can is rotated by a motor the sample is excited
show fluorescence and phosphorescence For Fluorescence The emission monochromator is blocked by the
can so that fluorescence and scattered radiation cannot be detected.
As the can rotates, the excitation beam is blocked and the fluorescence and scattered radiation decay to a negligible amount.
Further rotation of the can will bring the window into alignment with the emission monochromator entrance slit and phosphorescence radiation will pass into the emission monochromator and onto the sample photomultiplier

PULSED SOURCE-TIME RESOLVED PHOSPHORIMETRY was first proposed by Fisher and Winefordner in 1972. A pulsed source produces higher peak intensities than a
continuously operated xenon lamp resulting in a greater peak phosphorescence emission intensity.
Pulsed source phosphorimetry has the advantage of time resolution compared with a mechanically modulated system permitting the analysis of organic phosphor with short lifetimes (0.1 to 50 microsec)
The xenon lamp produces a burst of energy with a width a half peak intensity of less than 10 μsec.
The signals from the sample photomultiplier are gated and both the
delay of the start of the gate after the start the flash Timing is performed by a crystal clock and is highly accurate. a quantum-corrected reference photomultiplier is used to
monitor the flash intensity and the signals from th sample and reference

THE PERKIN ELMER LS 55 LUMINESCENCE SPECTROMETER
It is a very versatile instrument that allows measurement of fluorescence, phosphorescence , chemiluminescence and bioluminescence of a liquid, solid, powder, or thin film sample
Fluorescence data are collected at the instant of the flash while phosphorescence data are collected in the dark period between each flash.
