Abstract
In this paper, we present a complete study of the influence of the molecular rotational diffusion movement in the fluorescence signal when a sample is excited by two short pulses. The study includes the calculations of this effect for ellipsoidal molecules. Experimental results are presented that show a fluorescence behavior influenced by the molecular rotational diffusion movement with temporal characteristics that agree with our calculations.
