Abstract
Ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to investigate the excited- state dynamics of the basic eumelanin building block 5, 6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA), its acetylated, methylated, and carboxylic ester derivatives, and two oligomers, a dimer and a trimer in the O-acetylated forms. The results show that (1) excited-state decays are faster for the trimer relative to the monomer;(2) for parent DHICA, excited-state ...
