The temperature dependency of the phosphorescence properties of aromatic hydrocarbons in alcoholic glasses exhibits a number of phenomena that have not been described previously. Chief among these are the effects of added gases (O 2 , N 2 , C 2 H 6 , Ar), some of which produce major changes in the luminescence characteristics. These are discussed, and rationalized in terms of a model which presumes that O 2 and N 2 can disrupt the normal hydrogen bonding process between alcohol molecules.
