The degradation of J-aggregates of thiacarbocy~nlne dye (THIATS) exposed to visible radiation is experimentally investigated. A model that allows s consistent description of photodegradation of J-aggregates in s solution is proposed. L-mlnescence quencher molecules are formed with the participation of monomer dye molecules in s solution under action of the light. These molecules, when diffusing to the aggregates for a time of nearly 10 s, are adsorbed on their surface and participate in quenching of exciton luminescence of the J-aggregates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
