Abstract
The spectral characteristics of 1,2,3,8-tetrahydro-1,2,3,3,8-pentamethyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-7H-pyrrolo[3,2-g]quinolin-7-one (LD-473) were demonstrated in liquid and solid states. For the liquid state, the absorption and fluorescence spectra of the LD-473 in Methyl Methacrylate showed bands at 385 and 420 nm, respectively. LD-473 in the solid state showed one absorption band at 530 nm, while the fluorescence spectra, under low concentration, showed one band at 615 nm. For higher concentrations, the fluorescence bands are shifted to the red. LD-473 in the solid state under an impulse of Nd:YAG laser showed dual amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) peaks at 605 and 650 nm. The longer wavelength coincided with a fluorescence peak while the shorter wavelength is an abnormal peak.
