The solutions were diluted to 1 × 10−5 mol·L−1 to ensure the monodispersion of the molecular. All the solutions were put into the quartz cell and solid samples were put into a quartz plate in order to ensure accuracy. The UV-3100 spectrophotometer was applied to record the UV-vis absorption spectra. The fluorescence measurements were carried out with an RF-5301PC.

An Edinburgh FLS-980 with an EPL-375 optical laser was the main instrument to estimate lifetime. The samples were put into the quartz plate to estimate lifetime. The total lifetimes of multi-sectioned PL-decay spectra were calculated using the following equation:
τ=i=1nτi2Aii=1nτiAi
where τ is lifetime; i represents for the number of the lifetime components; and Ai is the proportion of each lifetime components.

UV/vis absorption spectra
were recorded using Unicam 340 and Varian 4000 spectrometers. The
steady-state fluorescence spectra were monitored using an FLS 980
(Edinburgh Instruments, UK) spectrofluorimeter. For time-resolved
measurements, the samples were excited with a Lambda Physik FL3002
laser (λexc = 664 nm and pulse length ∼28
ns) that matched the Qy band of Chls51 (link) in the extract and both Chl a and zinc
phthalocyanine (ZnPc) standards. Time-resolved near-infrared luminescence
of O2(1Δg) at 1270 nm was observed
using a homemade detector unit (interference filters, Ge diode). Temporal
profiles of O2(1Δg) luminescence
were averaged and calculated as the difference between signals in
oxygen- and argon-saturated H2O. They were fitted to a
single exponential function: I = I0 exp(−tΔ), in which τΔ is the lifetime of singlet
oxygen. The fitting procedure excluded the initial part of the plot
influenced by light scattering and fluorescence (usually 1–2
μs after excitation). The details can be found in our previous
paper.26 (link) Transient absorption spectra of
photosensitizers (corresponding to triplet–triplet transitions)
and decay kinetics of the photosensitizer triplet states were measured
on an LKS 20 laser kinetic spectrometer (Applied Photophysics, United
Kingdom) in oxygen-, air-, and argon-saturated solvents/dispersions.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
