1. Introduction Coumarin 1 and Sodium fluorescein are two dyes which absorb and emit light in the visible region. By using a spectrophotometer we are recording an absorption spectrum and then determining the molar decadic absorption coefficients, which will be used later to interpret and analyse the fluorescence spectra. F ....

.... this process is enhanced trough energy transfer. We will distinguish between collisional energy transfer and dipole-dipole transfer. From here we will try to determine the quenching constant and the distance at which decay and energy transfer are equally probable, as well as prove that Stern-Volmer's law and Förster's theory are obeyed. 2. Results 2.1. Electronic Absorption Spectra We made up stock solutions for both salts and diluted them down to use in the UV/vis spectrometer. Coumarin 1 C = ....
