Chemistry 324 - Spring 2008

Here are some links for Friday’s lecture. My computer was goofy and slow so you might want to look these materials over more carefully on your own.

Jablonski diagrams

• Lecture animation
• Another diagram. This one correctly represents internal conversion and intersystem crossing as processes that (more or less) conserve energy.
• Wikipedia also has a short and useful description of internal conversion that contains some material on biochemical systems that I was unaware of

(Hanovia) Photochemical reactor

• Lecture image
• Another version that allows magnetic stirring (power supply and stand also shown; Sigma-Aldrich). Click on image for larger image.
