22. The wavelength-dependent behavior of the ∼1.4 ps component has only a small effect on the shape of the time-dependent fluorescence spectra, reconstructed after normalization of the isotropic kinetics to the steady-state fluorescence spectrum (Figure 3). There is no shift in the emission maximum between 0.3 and 4.3 ps and only a small (∼1 nm) decrease in the bandwidth. We assign the 1.4 ps time constant to cooling of the vibrationally hot purpurin molecules, which are produced following ultrafast (< 100 fs) relaxation from higher vibronic or electronic levels.
