Gas-Phase Fluorescence Excitation and Emission Spectroscopy of Three Xanthene Dyes (Rhodamine 575, Rhodamine 590 and Rhodamine 6G) in a Quadrupole Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The gas-phase fluorescence excitation, emission and photodissociation characteristics of three xanthene dyes (rhodamine 575, rhodamine 590, and rhodamine 6G) have been investigated in a quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer. Measured gas-phase excitation and dispersed emission spectra are compared with solution-phase spectra and computations. The excitation and emission maxima for all three protonated dyes lie at higher energy in the gas phase than in solution. The measured Stokes shifts are significantly smaller for the isolated gaseous ions than the solvated ions. Laser power-dependence measurements indicate that absorption of multiple photons is required for photodissociation. Redshifts and broadening of the dispersed fluorescence spectra at high excitation laser power provide evidence of gradual heating of the ion population, pointing to a mechanism of sequential multiple-photon activation through absorption/emission cycling. The relative brightness in the gas phase follows the order R575(1.00) < R590(1.15) < R6G(1.29). Fluorescence emission from several mass-selected product ions has been measured.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
