In the preceding article [Serpone and Salinaro, Pure Appl. Chem., 71(2), 303-320 (1999)] we examined two principal features of heterogeneous photocatalysis that demanded scrutiny: (i) description of photocatalysis and (ii) description of process efficiencies. For the latter we proposed a protocol relative photonic efficiency which could subsequently be converted to quantum yields. A difficulty in expressing a quantum yield in heterogeneous photochemistry is the very nature of the system, either solid/liquid or solid/gas, which places severe restrictions on measurement of the photon flow absorbed by the light harvesting component, herein the photocatalyst TiO2, owing to non-negligible scattering by the particulates. It was imperative therefore to examine the extent of this problem. Extinction and absorption spectra of TiO2 dispersions were determined at low titania loadings by normal absorption spectroscopy and by an integrated sphere method, respectively, to assess the extent of light scattering. The method is compared to the one reported by Grela et al. [J. Phys. Chem., 100, 16940 (1996)] who used a polynomial extrapolation of the light scattered in the visible region into the UV region where TiO2 absorbs significantly. This extrapolation underestimates the scattering component present in the extinction spectra, and will no doubt affect the accuracy of the quantum yield data. Further, we report additional details in assessing limiting photonic efficiencies and quantum yields in heterogeneous photocatalysis.

An equation that relates the ratio of fluorescence to phosphorescence quantum yields as function of temperature to basic photophysical parameters is considered. The quantum yields were obtained from three compounds on three different solid matrices. Fluorescence quantum yields did not change much with temperature, while phosphorescence quantum yields changed more substantially with temperature. For some of the systems considered, it was possible to show that, as the temperature was lowered, the quantum yield ratio was only a function of the phosphorescence lifetime of the phosphor. However, with other systems, the quantum yield ratio was dependent on both the rate constant of intersystem crossing from the singlet state to the triplet state and the phosphorescence lifetime. The equation discussed is important in defining the fundamental parameters that cause the luminescence quantum yield ratio to change as temperature is lowered.

Based on an approximate solution of the differential equations describing the rate of a reversible photoisomerization and the attenuation of the actinic light in a powdered adsorbent-adsorbate a method is presented permitting us to predict the irradiation time dependence of the sample reflectance and to determine both the quantum yields of the partial reactions and the absorption coefficients of the reactant and the product from the reflectance-time-curves measured at two different wavelengths. The present method, thus, is an improved version of the peviously reported procedure [1] which enables the quantum yield of a simple photoreaction to be calculated from the initial slope of the R(
