Abstract

The fluorescence spectra of the anthracene dye dissolved in polar and non-polar solvents (cyclohexane and methanol) were measured and studied at two concentrations [10-4M] and [10-5M]. For anthracene at excited wavelength) λex=375 nm). The results showed decreasing of fluorescence intensity of anthracene dye solution with increasing of solvent polarity. Also, a small shift was noticed in fluorescence spectra for the anthracene dye toward the longer wavelength (red shift) in non-polar solvent (cyclohexane). These measurements were done at room temperature (20°C).
