Determination of the Uncertainty Budgets of the Fluorescence Quantum Yield Values of Certified Standards as New Optical Reference Materials
- Luminescence techniques are amongst the most commonly used analytical methods in the life and material sciences due to their high sensitivity and their nondestructive and multiparametric character. Photoluminescence signals are, however, affected by wavelength-, polarization- and time-dependent instrument specific effects. This hampers the comparability of fluorescence measurements and calls for simple tools for instrument characterization and the quantification of measured fluorescence intensities. Well characterized fluorescence standards for instrument calibration and performance validation (IPV) can be used also to reference fluorescence signals. Of special importance is the reliable and accurate determination of photoluminescence quantum yields (Ф f), that equals the number of emitted per absorbed photons and presents the key performance parameter for emitter efficiency and the comparison of different luminophores. The determination of Ф f is typically done with the aid ofLuminescence techniques are amongst the most commonly used analytical methods in the life and material sciences due to their high sensitivity and their nondestructive and multiparametric character.

Of special importance is the reliable and accurate determination of photoluminescence quantum yields (Ф f), that equals the number of emitted per absorbed photons and presents the key performance parameter for emitter efficiency and the comparison of different luminophores. The determination of Ф f is typically done with the aid of so-called quantum yield standards with well-known Ф f values. These standards can also be applied to evaluate integrating sphere setups, which are increasingly being used for absolute measurements of Ф f values. In this respect, division biophotonics of BAM has certificated a set of Ф f standards, which absorb and fluorescence in the wavelength range from 350 to 1100 nm. In the following, the route to Ф f standards with reliable and traceable Ф f values with a complete uncertainty budget will be presented.…
