Description

Energy transfer from 3nπ* pyrazine to GaAs(110) has been studied. Within experimental error, a classical dielectric model quantitatively reproduces measurements of the distance-dependent lifetime for emitter-surface separations from 430 to 20 A. Analysis of the energy transfer shows that the molecular electronic excitation is dissipated through the creation of electron-hole pairs in the solid by the high--wave-vector components of the dipole near field
