Preferred Label : excitation-emission spectrum;
IUPAC acronym : EES;
IUPAC definition : The three-dimensional spectrum generated by scanning the emission spectrum at incremental
steps of excitation wavelength (x axis emission wavelength, y axis excitation
wavelength, z axis emission flux) is called a (fluorescence, phosphorescence) excitation-emission
spectrum (or EES). The spectra are particularly useful for investigating samples containing
more than one emitting species. Corrected EES are obtained if (a) the emission is
corrected for instrumental response with wavelength, and (b) the exciting radiation
flux in photons s-1 is held constant for all excitation wavelengths.;
