Abstract
The twisting motion of trans-4-[4-(dimethylamino)-styryl]-1-methylpyridinium iodide (4-DASPI) in the excited state was investigated in solutions and various polymers in order to understand dependence of molecular rotor dynamics on viscoelasticity. It was observed that the internal motion of electronically excited 4-DASPI correlates strongly with dynamic viscosity and elastic modulus. Our results also showed that condensed phase dynamics of 4-DASPI are governed by the explicit mode coupling between the rotamerizing coordinate and mechanical properties of viscoelastic media.
