Abstract

This paper presents a critical discussion on the representation of UV-vis-NIR light absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of polyatomic molecules in liquid solution. A general overview how to handle the experimental spectra in order to extract physical data from them is presented together with some simulations to show the errors that can arise from unfortunate manipulation.
