Abstract

The effective homogeneous line width Γ′hom of the S1 ← S0 0-0 transitions of bacteriochlorophyll-a (BChl-a) in the glass triethylamine (TEA) and of free-base chlorin (H2Ch) in polystyrene (PS) have been studied, respectively, under the influence of high pressure (~30 kbar) and for a range of concentrations (~ 10-4-10-2 M). The aim was to get a better understanding of spectral diffusion and energy transfer processes in amorphous systems. The dependence of Γ′hom on temperature (1.2-4.2 K), excitation wavelength (within the 0-0 band) and delay time (10-6-105 s) was measured for both systems by means of spectral hole burning.
