Abstract
The ESR spectra of optically excited triplet excitons in anthracene and naphthalene single crystals were measured at 35 GHz, 300 °K and 100 °K. A complete analysis of the fine structure tensor is given. The relaxation times T 1 and T 2 were investigated as a function of the orientation of the magnetic field B 0 in the crystal. It is shown that both relaxation times are determined by the modulation of the dipolar fine structure interaction due to the incoherent motion (“hopping”) of the excitons. The following values for the correlation times τc are determined: Anthracene 300 °K, τc = 3.6·10−12 sec, Naphthalene 300 °K, τc = 9.10−12 sec. At 100 °K, τc is approximately 30% shorter.

Principles of magnetic resonance

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of changing the precession frequency of the magnetic field has been studied using NMR to study rate properties. But the effect is limited to the case of double and double resonance.

Laser Generation of Excitons and Fluorescence in Anthracene Crystals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the time dependence of the fluorescence intensity as a function of laser intensity, crystal temperature and excitation wavelength, and concluded that the triplet state at 14 750 cm−1 can be populated (i) by direct absorption of laser photons involving an activation energy of 350 cm− 1; (ii) via two-photon absorption, presumably leading to a vibrationally excited state of the 1B2u exciton, followed by intersystem crossing; (iii) via one−photon (second-harmonic) excitation from levels�

Paramagnetic resonance absorption in naphthalene in its phosphorescent state

TL;DR: In this paper, the long principal magnetic axis in the plane of the phenanthrene molecule was taken as the x axis, the short axis was taken to be the y axis, and the normal to the plane was taken by the z axis.
