Introduction1. Principle of fluorescence and phosphorescenceFluorescence and phosphorescence are types of luminescence, which is the spontaneous emission of light. Fluorescence is a radiative process from the lowest excited state (S1) to the ground state (S0) in a fast (10-9 to 10-6s). However, in the phosphorescence, fast intersystem crossing from singlet excited state (S1) to the triplet excited state (T1) occurs and the following relaxation process happens, which is called phosphorescence. In fact, the decay of the T1 state back to the S0 is a forbidden transition since the states have different spin multiplicity, due to conservation of angular momentum. However, spin-orbit coupling relaxes this restriction and a radiative transition from the T1 to the S1 becomes possible. T1 to S0 transition occurs on a much slower timescale, microseconds to thousands of seconds.2. UV/Vis spectrometerFigure SEQ Figure * ARABIC 1 UV/Vis spectrometerUV/Vis spectrometer measures the absorption intensrometer is an instrument that measure the concentrations in solution that contain fluorescing molecules.Figure SEQ Figure * ARABIC 2 FluorometerA fluorometer is composed of light source, excitation monochromator, sample, emission monochromaterand detector. Flurometer has excitation and emission monochromator since the excitation and emission process occurs and each wavelength region is different each other. Also, the detector is located in to 90⁰ to the sample to measure the emitted radiation unlike the spectrometer.4. PhotodiodeIt is a PN junction device that creates current from external light as a photodetector. Photodiode performs as a reverse biased mode and converts light energy into electrical energy.5. Kinetic model for the photoluminescenceLuminescence is the transition process of an excited molecular state (A*) into the ground state (A). These process is a kind of the first rate reaction, of which the concentration of A* is exponentially decrease and its logarithm is negativorganic dyes or metal complexes, so a transition toward oxygen energy states is possible and even favorable. Therefore, in the presence of oxygen, the oxygen sensor like PtT975 loses its phosphorescence energy so that the lifetime is shorten.Experimental MethodProcedures1.

Aerated sampleFigure SEQ Figure * ARABIC 8 Aerated emission spectrum of 100um PtT975Data analysis:purged and aerated PtT975 well shows that both results have the highest peak near 650nm wavelength. The only difference is the y-axis counts scale. In other words, the peak intensity is reduced in the case of the aerated PtT975. Compared to the result of absorption process, emission spectrum is influenced by the air. Due to phosphorescence quenching, the oxygen takes the excited energy instead of the sample, so total energy that sample is t sensor, but not theabsolute concentration of the oxygen. What kind of additional research do you propose to addthe capability to this oxygen sensor?A: To know the absolute concentration of the oxygen, use collisional quenching process.I0/I=1+KSV [Q]I0: Fluorescence intensity observed in the absence of quencherI: Fluorescence intensity observed in the presence of quencherKSV: Stern-Volmer quenching constant[Q]: quencher concentrationThrough the Stern-Volmer equation, the concentration of quencher (i.e. O2) can be calculated.ConclusionAbsorption spectrum via UV/Vis spectrometer shows the most appropriate wavelength range to excite PtT975 sample. As PtT975 undergoes phosphorescence process, relatively longer wavelength compared to the absorption result is measured. After aeration, additionally different result is detected. In the presence of oxygen, the emission intensity life [Figure 8] is decreased rather than before [Figure 7]. Therefore, in the time-domain lifetime measurement, the l
