Abstract

The methods of selective laser spectroscopy applied at 1.8–10 K to a glass-forming tetrahydrofuran-toluene (3∶1) mixture have revealed that in the dimers of tetrapyrrole compounds (ethane-bis-octaethylporphyrins, ethane-bis-Zn-octaethylchlorins, heterodimers of Zn-cyclopentane porphyrins) the exciton interactions (V12≈118 cm−1) and S-S-transfer of energy (of probability F≈11 sec−1) are implemented under conditions of substantial inhomogeneous broadening (δF1/2≈50 cm−1). Upon excitation of a donor component in the dimers, one observes a strong quenching of its emission, the disappearance of the fine structure in the fluorescence spectra, a decrease in the efficiency of spectral hole burning by, approximately, an order of magnitude, and a 12-fold increase in their halfwidth.
