The fluorescence quenching of xanthene dyes by TiO2 has been investigated using steady state technique. The dyes used are eosin, rhodamine B, rhodamine 6G. The quenching was found to obey Stern-Volmer equation and the corresponding Stern-Volmer plots were linear in the range of quencher concentration used [0-5 x 10(-5)] M. The quenching rate constant (k(q)) is in the range of 0.77-8.30 x 10(12) M-1 s(-1). This study reveals effective quenching of xanthene dyes with TiO2. The quenching of xanthene dyes followed electron transfer mechanism.
