title: Room-temperature phosphorimetry of polyaromatic hydrocarbons with organized media and paper substrate: A comparative study.
abstract: Room-temperature phosphorescence of some polyaromatic hydrocarbons as model compounds with stabilization by use of a microemulsion of a non-polar solvent, has been examined. Some advantage in the preparation of the solutions is achieved. A comparative study of room-temperature phosphorimetry in microemulsion and micellar media, on paper substrates and at low temperature has also been made. The spectral characteristics and analytical figures of merit are given.
