JABLONSKI DIAGRAM TRANSITIONS Electronic excita-on- promo-on of an electron to an excited state (electronic, vibra-onal, rota-onal). S 0 à S 1 Nonradia-ve decay (vibra-onal relaxa-on)- vibra-onal energy transferred to other molecules through collisions. Very fast. Excited state à S 1 ground vibra-onal state Fluorescence- emission of photon to return to S 0. S 1 às 0 +hν Internal conversion- radia-onless transi-on to an extremely vibra-onally excited state of S 0 without a change in energy. S 1 às 0 Intersystem crossing- radia-onless transi-on from S 1 to T 1 with no change in energy. Change of electron spin. S 1 àt 1 Phosphorescence- emission of photon to return to S 0.
