A determination of the photochemical quantum yields from 2 excited triplet states of biacetyl using holography
Abstract
A holographic technique has been used to measure the quantum yield for photochemical product formation from two excited triplet states of biacetyl in a polymer host. The technique involves a simple measurement of the time taken for the hologram to reach its maximum diffraction efficiency. This measured time can be directly related to a photochemical quantum yield.
