Molecular dynamics simulation of time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy decays from labeled polyelectrolyte chains

Abstract

Molecular dynamics Simulations aimed at better understanding of the relationship between reorientational dynamics of pendant fluorescent probes and time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy and the segmental dynamics and conformations of the polyelectrolyte.
