FLUORIMETRY
It is measurement of fluorescence
intensity at a particular wavelength with
the help of a filter fluorimeter or a
spectrofluorimeter.
Phosphorimetry
A form of fluorimetry in which
phosphorescence of a sample is measured
in a conjunction with a pulsed sourse of
radiation.
Photoluminesence
“Photoluminescence (PL) is the spontaneous
emission of light from a material under optical
excitation.”
It is futher subdivided into two types
a. Flourescence
b. Phosphorescence
Fluorescence
When a beam of light is incident on certain substances they
emit visible light or radiation .This phenomenon is called
fluorescence.
Substances showing this phenomenon are fluorescent
substances.
This phenomenon is Fluorescence instantaneous i.e start
emitting radiation immediately after the absorption and stops
when incident light is cut off.
Fluorescent substances emit maximum radiation with in 10-
10 to 10-8sec of absorption. This is also called delayed
fluorescence
Phosphorescence
When light is incident on certain substances ,they
emit light continuously even after the light is cut off .
This is called phosphorescence and such substances
are called as phosphorescent substances.
In the fluorescence process, the electron did not
change its spin direction But under the appropriate
conditions, a spin-flip can occur
The light emission process must wait until electron
undergoes a spin-flip to revert back to it original state
Phosphorescent substances emit maximum radiation
within 10-4 to 20 sec or longer.
Difference between Phosphorescence and fluorescence
Phosphorescence Fluorescence
The emission could proceed
either from a singlet or triplet
state.
The emission could proceed
only from a singlet state.
short-live electrons (<10-5 s) in
the excited state of
fluorescence
longer lifetime of the excited
state (second to minutes)

•Conclusion
PRINCIPLE
•Molecule contains electrons, electrons and non
bonding (n) electron.
•The electrons may be present in bonding molecular
orbital.
•It is called as highest occupied molecular orbital
(HOMO).
•It has lest energy and more stable.
•When the molecules absorbs radiant energy from a
light source, the bonding electrons may be promoted
to anti bonding molecular orbital. It has more energy
and hence less stable.
The process of promotion of electrons from
HOMO to LOMO with absorption of energy is
called as excitation.
Singlet state:- a state in which all the electrons in a
molecule are paired  
Doublet state:- a state in which un paired electrons is
present  or 
Triplet state:- a state in which unpaired electrons of
same spin present  
Singlet excited state:- a state in which electrons are
unpaired but of opposite spin like   (un paired
and opposite spin)
When light of appropriate wavelength is absorbed by
a molecule the electrons are promoted from singlet
ground state to singlet excited state. Once he
molecule is in this excited state relaxation can occur
via several process like emission of radiation.
The process can be the following:-
1) Collision deactivation
2)Fluorescence
3)Phosphorescence.
Collisional de activation :-
In which entire energy lost due to collision de activation and
no radiation emitted.
Fluorescence:-
Excited singlet state is highly unstable. Relaxation of electrons
from excited singlet to singlet ground state with emission of
light.
Phosphorescence:-
At favorable condition like low temperature and absence of
oxygen there is transition from excited singlet state to triplet
state which is called as intersystem crossing . The emission of
radiation when electrons undergo transition from triplet state
to singlet ground state.
1. Concentration
2. Quantum yield of fluorescence
3. Intensity of incident light
4. Oxygen
5. Ph
6. Temperature& viscosity
7. Photodecomposition
8. Quenchers
9. Scatter
10. Solvent
Concentration:-
•Fluorescence intensity is proportional to concentration of
substance only when the absorbance is less than 0.02
Beer-Lambert Law
A = log(I /I 0) = €.c.l
I = transmitted light intensity
Io = incident light intensity
c = concentration (M)
l = path length of cell (cm)
€= molar extinction coefficient (usually in the range 0-105 ,
with <103 considered to be a week absorption
NUMBER OF PHOTONS EMITTED
() = ———————————
NUMBER OF PHOTONS ABSORBEDS
It Is Always Less Than 1.0 Since Some Energy Is Lost By
Radiation less Pathways (Collisions, Intersystem Crossing,
Vibrational Relaxation)
Increase In The Intensity Of Incident Light On The
Sample Fluorescence Intensity Also Increases effect.
Dissolved oxygen
•Oxygen with unpaired electrons dramatically decrease
fluorescence and cause interference in fluorimetric
determinations.
•The paramagnetic nature of molecular oxygen promotes
intersystem crossing from singlet to triplet states in other
molecules.
•The longer lifetimes of the triplet states increases the
opportunity for radiation less deactivation to occur.
PH
•Relatively small changes in pH can sometimes cause
substantial changes in the fluorescence intensity and spectral
characteristics of fluorescence.
Temperature
•A rise in temperature is almost always accompanied
by a decrease in fluorescence.
•The change in temperature causes the viscosity of
the medium to change which in turn changes the
number of collisions of the molecules of the
fluorophore with solvent molecules.
•The increase in the number of collisions between
molecules in turn increases the probability for
deactivation by internal conversion and vibrational
relaxation.
Photochemical decomposition:-
Absorption of intense radiation leads to
photochemical decomposition of a fluorescent
substance to less fluorescent or non fluorescent
substance.
Quenchers:-
Quenching is the reduction of fluorescence
intensity by the presence of substance in the
sample other than the fluorescent analyte.
•Scatter is mainly due to colloidal particles in solution
•Scattering of incident light after passing through the
sample leads to decrease in fluorescence intensity.
•A higher fluorescence is observed when the solvents
do not contain heavy atoms while phosphorescence
increases due to the presence of heavy atoms in the
solvent.
Solvent
•The changes in the “polarity” or hydrogen bonding
ability of the solvent may also significantly affect the
fluorescent behaviour of the analyte.
•The difference in the effect of solvent on the
fluorescence is attributed to the difference in their
ability to stabilise the ground and excited states of the
fluorescent molecule.
•Increased viscosity increases fluorescence as the
deactivation due to collisions is lowered.
INSTRUMENTATION
INSTRUMENTATION
•SOURCE OF LIGHT
•FILTERS AND MONOCHROMATORS
•SAMPLE CELLS
•DETECTORS
1)SOURCE OF LIGHT:-
Mercury vapour lamp: Mercury vapour at high pressure give
intense lines on continuous background above 350nm.low
pressure mercury vapour gives an additional line at 254nm.it
is used in filter fluorimeter.
Xenon arc lamp: It give more intense radiation than mercury
vapour lamp. it is used in spectrofluorimeter.
Tungsten lamp:- If excitation has to be done in visible region
this can be used. It is used in low cost instruments.

xenon arc lamp
tungsten lamp
2) FILTERS ANDMONOCHROMATORS:-
Filters:
These are nothing but optical filters works on the
principle of absorption of unwanted light and
transmitting the required wavelength of light. In
inexpensive instruments fluorimeter primary filter
and secondary filter are present.
•Primary filter:- Absorbs visible radiation and transmit
UV radiation.
•Secondary filter:-Absorbs UV radiation and transmit
visible radiation.
Monochromators:
They convert polychromatic light into monochromatic light.
They can isolate a specific range of wavelength or a particular
wavelength of radiation from a source.
•Excitation monochromators:-provides suitable radiation for
excitation of molecule.
•Emission monochromators:- isolate only the radiation
emitted by the fluorescent molecules.
3) Sample cells
These are ment for holding liquid samples. These are
made up of quartz and can have various shapes ex:
cylindrical or rectangular etc.
4) Detectors
Photometric detectors are used they are
•Barrier layer cell/Photo voltaic cells
•Photomultiplier cells
INSTRUMENTS
The most common types are:-
•Single beam (filter) fluorimeter
•Double beam (filter )fluorimeter
•Spectrofluorimeter(double beam
•It contains tungsten lamp as a source of light and has an
optical system consists of primary filter.
•The emitted radiations is measured at 900 by using a
secondary filter and detector. Primary filter absorbs visible
radiation and transmit uv radiation which excites the
molecule present in sample cell.
Cont.
•In stead of 900 if we use 1800 geometry as in colorimetry
secondary filter has to be highly efficient other wise both
the unabsorbed uv radiation and fluorescent radiation will
produce detector response and give false result.
•Single beam instruments are simple in construction
cheaper and easy to operate.
It is similar to single beam except that the two incident
beams from a single light source pass through primary filters
separately and fall on the another reference solution. Then
the emitted radiations from the sample or reference sample
pass separately through secondary filter and produce
response combinly on a detector.
Spectrofluorimeter:
•In this primary filter in double beam
fluorimeter is replaced by excitation
monochromator and the secondary filter is
replaced by emission monochromator.
•Incident beam is split into sample and
reference beam by using beam splitter.

Phosphorimetry
•Instrumentation
•Instrument
•Applications
Instrumentation
• Excitation Source
• Filters/Monochromators for excitation
radiations
• Phosphorscope(sample Cell)
Excitation Source
High intensity source of UV light are used
Lasers – A laser makes it possible to have narrow
wavelength intervals that offer very high energy
irradiation. This is useful when a large amount of
energy is needed to produce the Phosphorescence
in the sample.
Photodiodes – Photodiodes are specialized diodes
that can be configured in a manner that allows
electrons to flow towards the sample so that the
excess energy excites the phosphorescent particles.
Xenon Arcs – Arcs of Xenon can produce the right
amount of radiation for Phosphorescent materials.
Mercury Vapor – Since mercury vapor can create
ultraviolet radiation when electrical current is
passed through it, it is good for use with materials
that shows Phosphorescence under the ultraviolet
radiation.
note: Care should be taken as Intense UV light is
hazardous for health
Filters and monochromators used in a phosphorimeter device.
• Filters
– Absorption
– Interfernce
• Monochromators
It allow wavelength adjustment.
Monochromators make it possible to do so with a
diffraction grating.
 Diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic structure, which splits
and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.
Cont.
-The primary filters that excite the sample
provide the appropriate wavelength
-While the secondary filters monochromate the
emitted light when sent to the detector.
Phosphoresence spectroscopy detectors may
have a
single channel (single wavelength from sample)
multiple channels (multiple wavelengths detection)
Instrument
phosphoroscope
A phosphoroscope is piece of experimental
equipment devised to measure how long it takes
a phosphorescent material to stop glowing after it
has been excited.
Phosphoroscope
1.The Becquerel or rotating disc
phosphoroscope
• A rotating disk excitation optical chopper, with
three open and three larger opaque areas, is
used to alternately excite the sample and
allow phosphorescence to be measured.
• By measuring the phosphorescence intensity
at several time intervals along the emission
decay curve, a recorder trace of the decay
with respect to time can be produced.
Cont.
The analytical precision and accuracy for quantitative
measurements is improved by rotating the sample
tube. This minimizes variation in the signal due to
sample in homogeniety resulting from imperfect
glass formation at low-temperatures .
2.The Rotating-Can Phosphoroscope:
• It consists of hollow cylinder having one or more
slit which are equally spaced in the circumference.
• This is rotated by a variable-speed
motor(>1000rpm)
• when the rotating-can is rotated by a motor the
sample is excited show fluorescence and
phosphorescence
For Fluorescence the emission monochromator is
blocked by the can so that fluorescence and scattered
radiation cannot be detected.
Cont.
• As the can rotates, the excitation beam is blocked
and the fluorescence and scattered radiation decay
to a negligible amount.
• Further rotation of the can will bring the window
into alignment with the emission monochromator
entrance slit and phosphorescence radiation will
pass into the emission monochromator and onto
the sample photomultiplier
Applications of Phosphorescence Spectroscopy
• Pharmaceutical Applications
• Clinical Applications
• Environmental Applications
• Entertainment Applications
Pharmaceutical Applications
• The majority of phosphorescence applications
have been applied in the drug and
pharmaceutical field and in the analysis of
pesticides
• A number of the sulphonamide class of drugs
exhibit phosphorescence as do cocaine,
procaine, chlorpromazin and salicylic acid.
Clinical Applications
• The phosphorescence intensity of the rare
earths increases tremendously when they are
covalently bound to certain molecules and this
feature has been used in the analysis of
transferin in blood
• dual-wavelength phosphorimeter used to
measure microvascular PO2 (µPO2) in
different depths in tissue and demonstrates its
use in rat kidney.
Environmental Applications
•Phosphorescence has been used in the
detection
•In air and water-borne pollutantsfor the
analysis of impurities in polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons and in petroleum products.
Entertainment Applications
•Use of phosphor coated stamps and envelopes
has appeared which gives a fascinating insight
into the practical use of phosphorescence.
•They used phosphors in lamps
•TV tubes.

NUMBER OF PHOTONS EMITTED () = ——————————— NUMBER OF PHOTONS ABSORBEDS It Is Always Less Than 1.0 Since Some Energy Is Lost By Radiation less Pathways (Collisions, Intersystem Crossing, Vibrational Relaxation) Increase In The Intensity Of Incident Light On The Sample Fluorescence Intensity Also Increases effect.
  • 16. Dissolved oxygen •Oxygen with unpaired electrons dramatically decrease fluorescence and cause interference in fluorimetric determinations. •The paramagnetic nature of molecular oxygen promotes intersystem crossing from singlet to triplet states in other molecules. •The longer lifetimes of the triplet states increases the opportunity for radiation less deactivation to occur. PH •Relatively small changes in pH can sometimes cause substantial changes in the fluorescence intensity and spectral characteristics of fluorescence.
  • 17. Temperature •A rise in temperature is almost always accompanied by a decrease in fluorescence. •The change in temperature causes the viscosity of the medium to change which in turn changes the number of collisions of the molecules of the fluorophore with solvent molecules. •The increase in the number of collisions between molecules in turn increases the probability for deactivation by internal conversion and vibrational relaxation.
  • 18. Photochemical decomposition:- Absorption of intense radiation leads to photochemical decomposition of a fluorescent substance to less fluorescent or non fluorescent substance. Quenchers:- Quenching is the reduction of fluorescence intensity by the presence of substance in the sample other than the fluorescent analyte.
  • 19. •Scatter is mainly due to colloidal particles in solution •Scattering of incident light after passing through the sample leads to decrease in fluorescence intensity. •A higher fluorescence is observed when the solvents do not contain heavy atoms while phosphorescence increases due to the presence of heavy atoms in the solvent.
  • 20. Solvent •The changes in the “polarity” or hydrogen bonding ability of the solvent may also significantly affect the fluorescent behaviour of the analyte. •The difference in the effect of solvent on the fluorescence is attributed to the difference in their ability to stabilise the ground and excited states of the fluorescent molecule. •Increased viscosity increases fluorescence as the deactivation due to collisions is lowered.
  • 22. INSTRUMENTATION •SOURCE OF LIGHT •FILTERS AND MONOCHROMATORS •SAMPLE CELLS •DETECTORS
  • 23. 1)SOURCE OF LIGHT:- Mercury vapour lamp: Mercury vapour at high pressure give intense lines on continuous background above 350nm.low pressure mercury vapour gives an additional line at 254nm.it is used in filter fluorimeter. Xenon arc lamp: It give more intense radiation than mercury vapour lamp. it is used in spectrofluorimeter. Tungsten lamp:- If excitation has to be done in visible region this can be used. It is used in low cost instruments.
  • 24. mercury vapour lamp xenon arc lamp tungsten lamp
  • 25. 2) FILTERS ANDMONOCHROMATORS:- Filters: These are nothing but optical filters works on the principle of absorption of unwanted light and transmitting the required wavelength of light. In inexpensive instruments fluorimeter primary filter and secondary filter are present. •Primary filter:- Absorbs visible radiation and transmit UV radiation. •Secondary filter:-Absorbs UV radiation and transmit visible radiation.
  • 26. Monochromators: They convert polychromatic light into monochromatic light. They can isolate a specific range of wavelength or a particular wavelength of radiation from a source. •Excitation monochromators:-provides suitable radiation for excitation of molecule. •Emission monochromators:- isolate only the radiation emitted by the fluorescent molecules.
  • 27. 3) Sample cells These are ment for holding liquid samples. These are made up of quartz and can have various shapes ex: cylindrical or rectangular etc. 4) Detectors Photometric detectors are used they are •Barrier layer cell/Photo voltaic cells •Photomultiplier cells
  • 28. INSTRUMENTS The most common types are:- •Single beam (filter) fluorimeter •Double beam (filter )fluorimeter •Spectrofluorimeter(double beam
  • 29. •It contains tungsten lamp as a source of light and has an optical system consists of primary filter. •The emitted radiations is measured at 900 by using a secondary filter and detector. Primary filter absorbs visible radiation and transmit uv radiation which excites the molecule present in sample cell.
  • 30. Cont. •In stead of 900 if we use 1800 geometry as in colorimetry secondary filter has to be highly efficient other wise both the unabsorbed uv radiation and fluorescent radiation will produce detector response and give false result. •Single beam instruments are simple in construction cheaper and easy to operate.
  • 31. It is similar to single beam except that the two incident beams from a single light source pass through primary filters separately and fall on the another reference solution. Then the emitted radiations from the sample or reference sample pass separately through secondary filter and produce response combinly on a detector.
  • 32. Spectrofluorimeter: •In this primary filter in double beam fluorimeter is replaced by excitation monochromator and the secondary filter is replaced by emission monochromator. •Incident beam is split into sample and reference beam by using beam splitter.

  • 37. Instrumentation • Excitation Source • Filters/Monochromators for excitation radiations • Phosphorscope(sample Cell)
  • 38. Excitation Source High intensity source of UV light are used Lasers – A laser makes it possible to have narrow wavelength intervals that offer very high energy irradiation. This is useful when a large amount of energy is needed to produce the Phosphorescence in the sample. Photodiodes – Photodiodes are specialized diodes that can be configured in a manner that allows electrons to flow towards the sample so that the excess energy excites the phosphorescent particles.
  • 39. Xenon Arcs – Arcs of Xenon can produce the right amount of radiation for Phosphorescent materials. Mercury Vapor – Since mercury vapor can create ultraviolet radiation when electrical current is passed through it, it is good for use with materials that shows Phosphorescence under the ultraviolet radiation. note: Care should be taken as Intense UV light is hazardous for health
  • 40. Filters and monochromators used in a phosphorimeter device. • Filters – Absorption – Interfernce • Monochromators It allow wavelength adjustment. Monochromators make it possible to do so with a diffraction grating.  Diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic structure, which splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.
  • 41. Cont. -The primary filters that excite the sample provide the appropriate wavelength -While the secondary filters monochromate the emitted light when sent to the detector. Phosphoresence spectroscopy detectors may have a single channel (single wavelength from sample) multiple channels (multiple wavelengths detection)
  • 42. Instrument phosphoroscope A phosphoroscope is piece of experimental equipment devised to measure how long it takes a phosphorescent material to stop glowing after it has been excited.
  • 43. Phosphoroscope 1.The Becquerel or rotating disc phosphoroscope • A rotating disk excitation optical chopper, with three open and three larger opaque areas, is used to alternately excite the sample and allow phosphorescence to be measured. • By measuring the phosphorescence intensity at several time intervals along the emission decay curve, a recorder trace of the decay with respect to time can be produced.
  • 44. Cont. The analytical precision and accuracy for quantitative measurements is improved by rotating the sample tube. This minimizes variation in the signal due to sample in homogeniety resulting from imperfect glass formation at low-temperatures .
  • 45. 2.The Rotating-Can Phosphoroscope: • It consists of hollow cylinder having one or more slit which are equally spaced in the circumference. • This is rotated by a variable-speed motor(>1000rpm) • when the rotating-can is rotated by a motor the sample is excited show fluorescence and phosphorescence For Fluorescence the emission monochromator is blocked by the can so that fluorescence and scattered radiation cannot be detected.
  • 46. Cont. • As the can rotates, the excitation beam is blocked and the fluorescence and scattered radiation decay to a negligible amount. • Further rotation of the can will bring the window into alignment with the emission monochromator entrance slit and phosphorescence radiation will pass into the emission monochromator and onto the sample photomultiplier
