An accurate and convenient method for measuring photofluorescence decay times in the nanosecond region is described. Results are given for a number of organic compounds and reasons for differences with previous results are discussed. For anthracene, a value of 24.2 nsec has been measured for a 1 cm cube crystal. Some previous results for quantum efficiencies are corrected on the basis of these measurements and apparent inconsistences examined with regard to the mean free path of excitons in very thin crystals.
