Kinetic and mechanistic applications of fluorescence measurements

Photo-association formation of complexes with excited molecules [22] 

The intensity of the longer-wavelength band (/ ) shows an inverse dependence on the concentration  

The next step is to relate the empirical parameter (A) 1/2 to the rate constants in the scheme. The treatment begins similarly to that of the simplest system (above, Sec- 

Hence the quantum yield of fluorescence from the monomer A, relative to the limiting 

This has the same form as the Stem-Volmer equation (6.18) or (6.22) the term in square brackets replaces k3ro in Equation (6.18), or l/[Q]i/2 in Equation (6.22). It maybe written in the same form as Equation (6.22)
