A velocity map imaging study

چکیده
A study of the photodissociation dynamics of NO2 in the 200–205 nm region using resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) in conjunction with the velocity map imaging technique is presented. We chose this region because it allowed the use of a single laser to photodissociate the NO2 molecule and probe both the O(D2) fragment using (2+1) REMPI via the 3p ′1P1 state at 2× 205.47 nm and the 3p′1F3 state at 2×203.5 nm, and the O(PJ ) fragments using (2+1) REMPI via the 4p PJ states around 2 × ∼200 nm. Translational energy and angular distributions are extracted from the O(D) and O(P) product images. A growth in the population of highly excited vibrational levels of the NO X(Π) co-fragment is found as the dissociation wavelength decreases. These are compared with similar trends observed previously for other triatomic O-atom containing molecules. Detailed information on the electronic angular momentum alignment of the D2 state is obtained from analysis of the polarization sensitivity of the O(D) images using the two resonant intermediate states. The angular dependence of the potential energy in the exit channels is examined using long-range quadrupole-dipole and quadrupole-quadrupole interaction terms, from which molecular-frame multipole moments of the total angular momentum of the recoiling O atoms have been calculated. Comparison with the experimentally derived multipole moments is used to help provide insight into the dissociation mechanism.

The average velocity of water flow has been simultaneously measured with fluorescent and speckle imaging methods. The measured velocities with two methods are in good agreement with each other and it confirms that the speckle imaging method can be used as a confident method to measure the velocity of water flow in a dry leaf. Also the velocity of water flow through thick and thin xylems of a le...
متن کاملThree-dimensional velocity map imaging of KBr surface photochemistry.
We have combined the velocity map imaging technique with time-of-flight measurements to study the surface photochemistry of KBr single crystals. This approach yields 3-dimensional velocity distributions of Br atoms resulting from 193 nm photodesorption. The velocity distributions indicate that at least two non-thermal mechanisms contribute to the photodesorption dynamics. Our experimental geome...

متن کاملWide-Band Chaotic Noise Signal for Velocity Estimation and Imaging of High-Speed Moving Targets
This paper proposes a burst model of chaotic noise signals with randomly stepped carrier frequencies for velocity estimation and high-resolution range imaging of high-speed moving targets. The random stepping of carrier frequencies is controlled by a combination chaotic map (CCM), which is generated by embedding a Logistic map into a Bernoulli map. The baseband noise signal adopts the CCM based...
