Abstract

Prompt fluorescence in anthracene is shown to be modified by the application of a magnetic field: characteristic variations of the relative fluorescence quantum yield with field intensity and orientation together with their dependence on the excitation wavelength are reported. The results indicate that the radiationless transitions from the initially excited upper molecular states to the fluorescing levels involve an intermediate singlet state which can dissociate into a triplet pair.
