Abstract:
Research of the mechanism for delayed fluorescence origin play an important role in the application of DF. Based onthe charge recombination theory, the mechanism for delayed fluorescence origin is theoretically analyzed in this paper. The decay kinetics of DF, depending on the backward transport electron and oxidized state P680+, can be well fitted by poly-exponent. The relative fast component of DF originates from the Z+ P680 Q(A)- states, generated during the previous period of the sample illumination. On the other hand, the slow component of DF is ascribed to the state Q(B)= --the next electron carrier of deoxidized side in PS II. Meanwhile, the experimental results confirmed the theoretical conclusion. Furthermore, the authors testified that the third component with lifetime much greater than the time of the registration period (which is presented as a constant), is corresponds to the recombination of P680+ and the backward transport electron from PSI.
