Time resolved phosphorescence of Dibromobenzophenone (DBBP) choleic acid crystal was observed at 4.2 K as functions of excitation energy and delay time. The experimental results reveal that the energy transfer efficiency is dependent on the excitation energy, i.e. the density of acceptors sites. As the excitation energy or delay time increases, the resonance phosphorescence does not broaden and shift gradually, rather a broad luminescence band develops about 290 cm?1 to lower energy of the resonance phosphorescence. The observation implies that energy transfer from high to low energy sites in this system is controlled by emission of phonons or vibrons. The data of time resolved experiments were analyzed in terms of a mechanism involving direct donor-acceptor excitation transport by exchange coupling. It was concluded that an isotropic twodimensional exchange interaction topology is consistent with energy transfer in this system.

The cluster distributions for different concentrations of 1,4-dibromonaphthalene (DBN) in 4,4'-dibromobenzophenone (DBBP)/1,4-dibromonaphthalene (DBN) choleic acid were determined by a computer simulation in order to model the energy transfer dynamics. The results of the simulation indicate that long range interaction between molecules further apart than nearest does not occur and energy transfer efficiency is restricted by single range interaction. The results also demonstrate that the trapping is diffusion limited. The energy transfer rate is reduced by a factor of 15 in DBBP/DBN choleic acid realtive to that in DBBP/DBN doped into polystyrene due to the larger distance between molecules.
