Spectral properties of singlet-oxygen luminescence in the IR Region at the 1Δ g → 3Σ g transition in the presence of fullerene as a photosensitizer

The spectral properties of singlet-oxygen luminescence at the 1Δ g → 3Σ g transition observed using fullerene as a photosensitizer are analyzed. It is shown that the use of C60 and C70 fullerenes for singlet-oxygen generation exhibits all the main spectral regularities observed for other photosensitizers. The results of investigations in this field are summarized.
