Absorption and Fluorescence spectra of Rhodamine 6G

These data are fluorescence and absorption spectra of Rhodamine 6G. The fluorescence data have some undesirable spikes due to room lights. The absorption data are taken at various concentrations, using a single-monochromator spectrophotometer. The best way to treat them is to stitch the data together depending on which concentration best uses the dynamic range of the detector. The included python script does exactly that. Note that there are slight systematic biases for the largest absorption (underestimate of cross-section due to unwanted multiply scattered fluorescence) and lowest (weak dimerisation of Rhodamine at high concentration).

This data is suitable for use in simulations of photon thermalisation, condensation and lasing. It was used by https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.93.013829 .
