Abstract
Room-temperature fluorescence and phosphorescence quantum yield, triplet formation efficiency, and phosphorescence lifetime values were obtained for the anion of rho-aminobenzoic acid adsorbed on sodium acetate and several sodium acetate-sodium chloride mixtures. From these data, rate constants for phosphorescence and for radiationless transition from the triplet state were obtained. The results revealed that several factors are important for maximum room-temperature phosphorescence for the anion of rho-aminobenzoic acid. One of the most important conditions for strong room-temperature phosphorescence of the anion was how efficiently the matrix was packed with sodium acetate molecules. The same general conclusion was found for room-temperature fluorescence, but the phosphorescence quantum yield increased more dramatically than the fluorescence quantum yield.
