Infrared laser induced multiphoton dissociation of decafluorocyclopentane in a concerted pathway: time resolved evidence of :CF/sub 2/ formation

Journal Article Chowdhury, P K ; Rama Rao, K V.S. ; Mittal, J P - J. Phys. Chem.; (United States)

The infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) of decafluorocyclopentane (DFCP) generates tetrafluoroethylene and difluorocarbene as the primary products. The :CF/sub 2/ dimerizes to form C/sub 2/F/sub 4/; the kinetics of the reaction is followed by monitoring the disappearance of :CF/sub 2/ absorption at 249 nm in real time after the CO/sub 2/ laser pulse, with a rate constant k/sub 2/ = 4.35 x 10/sup 7/ M/sup -1/ s/sup -1/. The vibrational temperature associated with the nascent :CF/sub 2/ is found to be 1100 K. The MPD yield of DFCP shows a strong fluence dependence, with a threshold of approx. 0.5 J/cm/sup 2/more »« less

Charge Separation and Triplet Exciton Formation Pathways in Small-Molecule Solar Cells as Studied by Time-Resolved EPR Spectroscopy

Journal Article Thomson, Stuart A. J. ; Niklas, Jens ; Mardis, Kristy L. ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

Organic solar cells are a promising renewable energy technology, offering the advantages of mechanical flexibility and solution processability. An understanding of the electronic excited states and charge separation pathways in these systems is crucial if efficiencies are to be further improved. Here we use light induced electron paramagnetic resonance (LEPR) spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations (DFT) to study the electronic excited states, charge transfer (CT) dynamics and triplet exciton formation pathways in blends of the small molecule donors (DTS(FBTTh₂)₂, DTS(F2BTTh₂)₂, DTS(PTTh₂)₂, DTG(FBTTh₂)₂ and DTG(F2BTTh₂)₂) with the fullerene derivative PC₆₁BM. Using high frequency EPR the g-tensor of the positive polaronmore »« less

Dissociative multiphoton ionization of NO{sub 2} studied by time-resolved imaging

Journal Article Eppink, Andre T.J.B. ; Whitaker, Benjamin J ; Gloaguen, Eric ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

We have studied dissociative multiphoton ionization of NO{sub 2} by time-resolved velocity map imaging in a two-color pump-probe experiment using the 400 and 266 nm harmonics of a regeneratively amplified titanium-sapphire laser. We observe that most of the ion signal appears as NO{sup +} with {approx}0.28 eV peak kinetic energy. Approximately 600 fs period oscillations indicative of wave packet motion are also observed in the NO{sup +} decay. We attribute the signal to two competitive mechanisms. The first involving three-photon 400 nm absorption followed by dissociative ionization of the pumped state by a subsequent 266 nm photon. The second involvingmore »« less

Time-resolved imaging of bound and dissociating nuclear wave packets in strong-field ionized iodomethane

Journal Article Malakar, Y. ; Pearson, W. L. ; Zohrabi, M. ; ... - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics. PCCP

Here, we report the results of a time-resolved coincident ion momentum imaging experiment probing nuclear wave packet dynamics in the strong-field ionization and dissociation of iodomethane (CH₃I), a prototypical polyatomic system for photochemistry and ultrafast laser science. By measuring yields, kinetic energies, and angular distributions of CH₃⁺ + I⁺ and CH₃⁺ + I⁺⁺ ion pairs as a function of the delay between two 25 fs, 790 nm pump and probe pulses, we map both, bound and dissociating nuclear wave packets in intermediate cationic states, thereby tracking different ionization and dissociation pathways. In both channels, we find oscillatory features with amore »« less

Control of chemical reaction pathways by femtosecond ponderomotive forces: Time-resolved multiphoton ionization spectroscopic study of OCIO photodissociation

Journal Article Blackwell, M ; Ludowise, P ; Chen, Y - Journal of Chemical Physics

Femtosecond time-resolved multiphoton ionization spectroscopy is applied to the study of the photodissociation of OClO. The observed ratio of O{sub 2}{sup +}/ClO{sup +} signal increases 12-fold with a 3-fold increase of the pump laser intensity. They are attributed to the change in the branching ratio between the two independent reaction channels leading to Cl+O{sub 2} and ClO+O, respectively. We believe this is the first experimental demonstration of laser controlled chemical reactions by femtosecond ponderomotive forces. At low pump power, the photodissociation dynamics at 386 nm is shown to be a two-step process, with the OClO slowly approaching (time constant 4.6more »« less
