Understanding Luminescence Spectra and Efficiency Using Wp and Related Functions (Inorganic Chemistry Concepts)

By William H Fonger, Charles W. Struck, K. Niedenzu, et al.

Book Overview

This book gives a semiquantitative understanding of the properties observed in luminescence, i.e., where energy absorption and emission occur, and with what efficiency these conversion processes take place. The authors give a correct treatment of the offset dependence and the temperature dependence of nonradiative rates. The Wp function is defined as the sum of thermally weighted Franck-Condon factors. It is obtained in one dimension in several forms, and a useful recursion relation is derived between Wp's with nearby p indices. This description may be from another edition of this product.
