چکیده

where S(t) is the measurement, u f & is the final state, used as a ‘‘screen’’ onto which we project the dynamics, m(Q) is the coordinate dependent dipole coupling and uex(t)& is the evolving state that we wish to study. A range of techniques using different kinds of final states u f & have been implemented: time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy; ionization/mass spectroscopy; stimulated emission pumping; and direct absorption. In general, the choice of the final state must take into consideration several effects: ~1! In order to decompose the evolving wave packet in the basis of the final states, u f & must be well known. In general, however, higher excited states of polyatomic molecules are poorly known; ~2! variation of the dipole coupling between electronic states during the wavepacket evolution will have a strong effect on the measured signals. It is important to choose a technique that ‘‘follows’’ the reaction dynamics, even to ‘‘dark’’ states. ~3! Polyatomic reaction dynamics implies multidimensional wave packets with many frequency components. An integrated detection technique which simultaneously collects all components ~e.g., total fluorescence, total ion yield! may not resolve the complicated underlying dynamics. It is important to develop a differential detection technique that ‘‘disperses’’ or ‘‘isolates’’ the various components, if possible. This was demonstrated successfully using the dispersed fluorescence technique. Time-resolved ionization is a general approach to addresing these issues. Aside from technical advantages such as extreme sensitivity, ionization presents certain conceptual advantages: ~1! The ground state of the ion is often the best known excited state of a polyatomic molecule and can there-

Zero electron kinetic energy and photoelectron spectroscopy of the XeI anion

The XeI anion and the corresponding neutral X1/2, I3/2, and II1/2 electronic states have been studied by means of zero electron kinetic energy ~ZEKE! and photoelectron spectroscopy. The ZEKE spectra show rich and well-resolved progressions in the low-frequency vibrations of the anion and the neutral van der Waals complexes. From our spectroscopic data we construct model potentials for the anion...

Resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization and zero kinetic energy photoelectron spectroscopy of Benzo[e]pyrene

We report zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy via resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) for benzo[e]pyrene. Extensive vibronic coupling between the first electronically excited state and a nearby state allows b2 symmetric modes to be observed which would normally be Franck-Condon (FC) disallowed. These vibronic modes are comparable in intensity to the FC allowed a...
