Analysis of phosphorescence decay in heterogeneous systems: consequences of finite excitation flash duration.

abstract：:Novel water-soluble polymeric photosensitizers (SPO) based on starch and containing porphyrin chromophores were synthesized and studied. The polymers were soluble in water and in dimethyl sulfoxide. Photophysical studies and solubilization of molecular probes proved the formation of hydrophobic, rigid microdomains in ...
