Photochromism Experiment

ESRs involved: ESR 1: Piotr Kabaciński, ESR 5: Zhengyue Zhang, ESR 8: Mark Stitch, ESR 10: Davide Avagliano
Appropriate for students
over 12
Subject of the experiment
Photochromism, light absorption, fluorescence
Length
60 minutes
Hypothesis: Photochromism shows different absorption spectra because of different materials.

Objectives:
  • Understanding the theory of light absorption
  • Understanding the theory of fluorescence
  • Understanding the theory of photochromism
  • Validating light absorption, photochromism from the spiropyran molecules
  • Understanding the application of photochromism

Introduction: This experiment is set to promote understanding on concepts of light absorption, fluorescence, and photochromism. By implementing the photochemistry experiments in this plan, students can build a bridge between the application and theory of photochromism.
