A new sensitive detection system is developed to directly measure the temporal and spectral resolved ^1O2 luminescence spectra. The triplet state and ^1O2 lifetimes of Rose Bengal as a model photosensitizer in different solvents are determined, and the obtained results agree well with the published data. Our detection system has the potential application in ^1O2 luminescence-based PDT dosimetry.展开更多
