Abstract
This paper presents the technique and results of the investigation of the structural relaxation in disordered solid media (polyisobutylene, toluene, ortho-dichlorobenzene) at temperatures below the glass transition point via the spectra and fluorescence images of single impurity fluorescent molecules (terrylene, tetra-tert-butylterrylene). Application of the thermal-cycling method has made it possible to significantly extend the temperature range of investigation (from 4.5 K to the glass transition temperature). The changes observed in individual parameters of low-energy elementary excitations of the tunneling and vibrational types due to structural relaxation processes have been studied. It has been found that there is a spatial inhomogeneity in the distribution of the activation temperatures of local relaxation processes.
