Abstract:
The photovoltage developed in a photoelectrochemical cell consisting of riboflavin (RFN), a neutral dye and phospholipid (PL) liposome in aqueous solution has been found to correlate with the Stern-Volmer constant (KSV) or quenching-rate constant (Kq) of RFN-PL studied by fluorescence spectra. A possible mechanisms of photovoltage generation suggests the photo-induced electron transfer from PL to RFN in liposome through the excited state molecular interaction.
