The simultaneous two-photon excitation energy transfer (SEET) was demonstrated for the first time using trichromophoric model compounds. Two identical donors (A–antenna) were covalently linked to an energy acceptor unit (T–target) with different energy levels preventing energy transfer of a single photon. At high intensity illumination (laser exposure) of a trichromophoric system A∼T∼A (A–fluorescein, erythrosin; T-Estilbene), sufficient to excite both of the appended donor subunits, population of the target excited state may occur via simultaneous energy transfer of two photons, one from each donor. In order to restrict reverse energy transfer from the higher energy target to the lower energy donor(s) it is necessary that the excited target unit undergoes an efficient photoreaction. In the investigated case this was achieved by photoisomerization of the stilbene unit used for monitoring of the SEET.

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-based fluorophores with two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) are rare. Our aim with this research was to develop ESITP-based fluorophores exhibiting TPEF. Herein, we used 4-hydroxyisoindoline-1,3-dione as...

Abstract Fluorescence emission anisotropies, r, and mean lifetimes of 4-dimethylamino-ω-diphenylphosphinyl-trans-styrene (DDPS) were measured in n-butanol at different temperatures from 20 to 80 °C for one-and two-photon excitation. When increasing the temperature, the lifetime decreased from 32 to 12 ps, the r values, however, remained constant (0.315 and 0.445 for one-and two-photon excitation, respectively) and were found to be temperature independent. For DDPS in glycerol at - 5°C, where rotational diffusion does not occur during the excited state lifetime, the limiting emission anisotropies were r0 = 0.382 and r0 = 0.545 for one-and two-photon excitation, respectively, very little differing from the fundamental emission anisotropies rf = 2/5 and rf = 4/7. The small differences rf - r0 can be due to vibrations performed after excitation by the DDPS molecule as a result of the initial shock.
