A time dependent fluorescence depolarization experiment is reported and fully analysed for the first time for a probe dissolved in an aligned nematic liquid crystal. We have investigated the popular dye all trans 1,6 diphenyl hexatriene in the transparent mesophase mixture ZLI-1167 at a series of temperatures within the nematic and isotropic range. The probe order parameter and perpendicular rotational diffusion coefficient have been determined, together with the fluorescence lifetime τF in the liquid crystal and isotropic phase. This information is extracted applying a previously proposed theory for rotational fluorescence depolarization in a mesophase (Zannoni, C., 1979, Molec. Phys., 38, 1813) and introducing a global variant of the target analysis deconvolution procedure presented earlier (Arcioni, A., and Zannoni, C., 1984, Chem. Phys., 88, 113). Our results demonstrate the possibility of employing fluorescence depolarization as a useful technique for investigating aligned mesophases.
