9 Rotational averaging Dynamic mean (Both dipoles rotate fast compared to all relaxation rates): <κ 2 >=2/3 One dipole is rotating fast, the other one slowly: κ 2 2/3 Static ensemble average, slow rotation: κ 2 =0,476 Teil I SM Fluo, Kap. 4 FRET, 4.1 Orientierung

15 Donor in triplet state No absorption, therefore no emission: donor and acceptor become dark Teil I SM Fluo, Kap. 4 FRET, 4.2 Photophysik/-chemie

16 Acceptor in triplet state Everything can happen: If no FRET is occuring: donor fluorescence is increasing Energy transfer to T1 - TN transition of acceptor: Depending on efficiency of this transfer compared to standard FRET S0 - S1 fluorescence of donor can increase, decrease, or remain constant Teil I SM Fluo, Kap. 4 FRET, 4.2 Photophysik/-chemie
