Resumo

Non-radiative energy transfer from singlet excited perylene to Co2+ ions has been studied in methanol, ethylene glycol and glycerol by time-correlated single-photon counting and steady state quenching experiments. In highly viscous glycerol the decay curves are represented by the expression given by Förster for long-range energy transfer. The experimental critical distance R0 = 13.2 Å is in good agreement with the theoretical value. In methanol and ethylene glycol the decay is modified owing to translational motion and can be described by the function exp(— at — bt12 with reasonable values for the reaction sphere and diffusion coefficients.
