A review of heavy-atom-induced room-temperature phosphorescence: A straightforward phosphorimetric method

摘要

This review discusses the development of heavy-atom-induced, room-temperature phosphorescence (HAI-RTP), a new technique based on the use of RTP emitted directly from the analyte in a fluid solution with no protective medium except the presence of high concentrations of a heavy-atom perturber. These experimental conditions permit sufficient interaction between the perturber and the analytes to produce an effective population of their triplet states and thus emit intense phosphorescence.
