The effect of spectral diffusion on the phase coherence of phosphorescent triplet spins

Abstract: We have made a systematic study of the effect of spectral diffusion on the phase coherence of phosphorescent triplet spins. The effect is caused by time dependent hyperfine interactions with surrounding nuclear spins, which make the resonance frequencies of the spin-packets vary in time. From the behaviour of the spin echo signals we derive characteristic parameters for these frequency instabilities.

“…The general case for an arbitrary orientation of the external magnetic field does not lead to simple analytical expressions and is not considered further. Equation [9] clearly shows that »S… is a states. The dotted trace is calculated with the zero-field parameters D and E of the acridine triplet state (D Å 2.22 GHz, E Å 00.26 GHz), while the solid trace corresponds to a smaller E value (D Å 2.22 GHz, E Å 00.026 GHz).…”

“…Phase coherence of phosphorescent triplet spins depends strongly on the magnetic moments of the nuclei on the guest as well as on the host molecules (van't Hof and Schmidt, 1979). In photo-excited triplet states, the transfer of the electron spin polarization to the nuclear spin system takes place in the order of a few hundred ns (Schmidt et aI., 1992), and the spinspin relaxation is dominated by a fast spin-lattice relaxation induced by a thermally-activated exchange process (van Kooten and Schmidt, 1985).…”
