Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around finding recommended references for luminescence spectroscopy, specifically focusing on different aspects such as photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy (PLE) and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. Participants explore various resources and their applicability to different fields within luminescence spectroscopy.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests recommendations for references on luminescence spectroscopy.
  • Another participant suggests a review article on laser excited atomic fluorescence spectrometry, but acknowledges it may not directly address the specific needs for PLE and time-resolved spectroscopy.
  • A participant proposes splitting the topic into two areas: luminescence spectroscopy of organic molecules and solid-state physics, providing specific references for each: "Principles of Fluorescence Spectroscopy" by Joseph R. Lakowicz and "Optical Processes in Semiconductors" by Jacques I. Pankove.
  • Concerns about the cost of references are mentioned, highlighting the difference in accessibility between the suggested texts.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express varying needs for references based on specific applications within luminescence spectroscopy, indicating that there is no consensus on a single comprehensive reference suitable for all aspects discussed.

Contextual Notes

Participants note the limitations of the suggested references in addressing specific methodologies like PLE and time-resolved spectroscopy, as well as the cost implications of accessing certain texts.

I've been looking for a good reference for luminescence spectroscopy but I haven't found anything. Could anyone please help me?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Had a quick look and found this.

Laser excited atomic fluorescence spectrometry — a review
Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy
Volume 56, Issue 9, 30 September 2001, Pages 1565–1592

Look useful?

Thank you very much for that. It is very helpful but this article is about Laser excited atomic fluorescence spectrometry while I am looking for a useful reference for Photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy (PLE) and time resolved Photoluminescence spectroscopy and that how can we analyse the data obtained by these methods.

To broad a topic. Let me split it into two.

1) Luminescence spectroscopy of organic molecules.
I use a reference:
"Principles of Fluorescence Spectroscopy" 3rd edition by Joseph R. Lakowicz (Springer, 2006).

2) For solid state physics, especially semiconductors.
I use for a reference:
"Optical Processes in Semiconductors" by Jacques I. Pankove (Dover, 1971).

I know about the enormous cost differential. Lakowicz is very expensive but very comprehensive. Pankove is inexpensive but a bit narrow. However, that is what I have been using.
