INTRODUCTION TO FLUORESCENCE (two-photon, three steps, phase incoherent process) • Einstein’s coefficients, dipole transitions. • Experimental setup • T-configuration • Jablonsky diagram • Franck-Condon principle, reflection rule and Stokes shift • Lifetime and quantum yield • Fluorescence quenching (collisional) • London’s theory of molecular forces • RET resonant Energy Transfer • FRAP (Fluorescence Recovery after Photo Bleaching
Kasha’s rule: emission spectra are independent of the excitation wavelength.
Quantum yield Q and lifetime τ Γ=spectral emissivity, knr rate of non radiative transitions teoricamente
Fluorescence Quenching Collisional quenching Stern-Volmer equation
