ELECTRONIC SPECTROSCOPY OF MIXED CRYSTALS OF DIPHENYLOCTATETRACENE

Abstract

A simple formulation of the degree of solid solubility will be presented with emphasis on cases in which a large guest molecule displaces two or more smaller host molecules. The solubility of diphenyloctatetracene in durene, diphenyl and bibenzyl will be discussed. The results of low-temperature spectroscopic studies of diphenyloctatracene in mixed crystals will be presented and compared with results for solutions.
