This subject is focused on applying the theoretical and practical knowledge of photochemistry in practice. Students will familiarize with Introduction to photochemistry (nature of photochemistry, Jabloński diagram, excited states, basic laws and rules), with photophysical processes (radiative processes - absorption and emission, nonradiative processes), with mechanistic and experimental photochemistry (rate constants, quantum yield, technique of preparative photochemistry), with bimolecular deactivating processes (excimers, exciplexes, energy transfer, sensitization) and with the selected photochemical reactions (cycloaddition, isomerization, rearrangement, fragmentation, addition, substitution, oxidation) and with photocatalysis (basic aspects). The practical demonstrations of photochemical equipment, both in batch and flow mode, are a part of this course.
