Anisotropy of Fluorescence of Some Organic Crystals

Abstract
A mathematical relationship between the intensities of polarized fluorescence in different perpendicular directions and the molecular orientations with respect to the crystal axes has been established, and particular reference is made to the plane aromatic molecules. It is emphasized that the knowledge of intensities of polarized fluorescence in different directions of a crystal may, in favorable cases, give direct information regarding the orientation of the molecule and the nature of oscillators responsible for giving fluorescent light.
