BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Fluorescence spectroscopy has been shown to provide information useful in the detection of cervical dysplasia. The goal of this study was to determine if substances found on the cervix such as acetic acid, mucus, and vaginal medications can influence the fluorescence in the spectral region useful for discriminating normal cervical tissue from abnormal tissue. STUDY DE...

A photosensitizer 5, 15-di (p-benzoato) spectra indicated that compound DBPP had a characteristic long wavelength absorption peak at 6 oxygen quantum yield of 0.39. Fluorescence spectra nm that can be used in fluorescence imaging esophageal cancer (Eca-109 cells) and human bladder ( light activation, DBPP was nontoxic to Eca significant photo-toxicity. These results suggested photodynamic thera...

Nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) has been used in many different fields of science and technology, due to its great structural characteristics. Solar selective surface is an important application of this type porous material. This paper investigates the effect of nanoporous AAO properties, including; film thickness, pore area percentage and pore diameter, on absorption spectra in the rang...

The possibility to exploit a bottom-up approach to design and synthesize multichromophoric structures from a single molecular unit is strategic for the targeted synthesis of molecular compounds with well defined linear and nonlinear absorption properties. In this view, it is important to be able to predict the properties of multichromophoric units, based on the knowledge of the properties of th...

The fluorescence and absorption properties of a series of reduced flavoproteins have been measured and compared with the properties of suitable model compounds. Contrary to common belief, a number of reduced flavoproteins have been found to exhibit appreciable fluorescence emission with maxima in the range 500-530 nm. In keeping with common observation, the reduced model flavines are devoid of ...

Abstract—In this paper, we have compared and analyzed the electroabsorption properties between with and without excitonic effect bulk in high purity GaAs spatial light modulator for optical fiber communication network. The eletroabsorption properties such as absorption spectra, change in absorption spectra, change in refractive index and extinction ration has been calculated. We have also compa...

The absorption and fluorescence spectra of a model diatomic molecule with a charge-transfer electronic transition are simulated. The effect of confining the solvent in which the diatomic molecule is dissolved is examined by comparing results for solutions contained within hydrophobic spherical cavities of varying size ~radii of 10–20 Å!. The effect of solvent polarity is also considered by comp...

The absorption, circular dichroism, and fluorescence spectra have been measured on oxidized and reduced reaction center preparations from Rhodopseudomonas spheroides strain R-26 at 295 and 77” K. The spectra indicate that the 4 bacteriochlorophyll a and 2 bacteriopheophytin a molecules in the reaction center are contained in a single pigment complex. The absorption bands at 893, 804, and ‘760 i...

[2]- and [3]-rotaxanes with a tetraphenoxy perylene diimide core were synthesized. Hydrogen bonding between the wheel and the imide changes the optical properties of the perylene chromophore: the absorption and fluorescence spectra are red-shifted. The decay times of the rotaxanes are shorter in comparison with that of the axle. Single molecule fluorescence measurements reveal relatively narrow...

A series of novel 1,4-dihydro-2,6- dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxamides were synthesized and characterized by infrared absorption spectrum (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), elemental analysis, ultraviolet spectrum (UV), and fluorescence techniques, together with X-ray single crystal diffraction. The results of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional ...
