We calc. the effects of relatively strong elec. fields, corresponding to typical values for the fields inside glasses and proteins, on the spectroscopic properties of a simple two-level mol. Disorder in the elec. field strength is employed as a phys. sourc ...
Excitation of the A(3ss) Rydberg state of NO leads to an extensive rearrangement of the environment, which was studied by classical mol. dynamics simulations and normal mode anal., using pair potentials from the literature. The medium response is independe ...
The dynamics of non-polar electronic solvation has been studied on a model system consisting of NO-doped solid Ar. Excitation of the lowest Rydberg state A(3ss) of NO leads to formation of an electronic 'bubble', which has been studied by femtosecond pump- ...
The ion-pair state emission spectra of I2 isolated in Ne, Ar, and Kr matrixes at 300-700 nm and vacuum UV spectra at 50,000-60,000 cm-1 are presented. Spectroscopic anal. of the UV and visible emission bands of the lowest-lying ion-pair state D'(2g) in Ne ...
The photochem. of ICN isolated in Ar matrixes has been investigated using UV absorption and laser spectroscopy under a variety of exptl. conditions. Laser excitation of the repulsive ~A continuum gives rise to long-lived near-IR emission from stabilized I ...
Calcns. are presented of the optimum conditions for performing a laser-pump x-ray probe time-resolved x-ray absorption expt. The results concerning sensitivity and feasibility for implementing the method are illustrated for the case of the nascent I radica ...
Structural dynamics in semi-quantum and quantum solids (Ne, H2 and D2) is reported, and compared to results in classical solids such as Ar. The structural dynamics is driven by excitation of the lowest Rydberg state of the NO impurity. The resulting charge ...
The fluorescence resonance energy-transfer (FRET) process was studied between donor dye mols. deposited on the sample surface and acceptor dye mols. deposited on the tips of scanning near-field and at. force microscopes. The FRET process was obsd. only whe ...
Higher Rydberg states of NO trapped in rare gas matrixes were studied by inducing Rydberg-Rydberg transitions from the lowest A2S+ (3ss) Rydberg state and detecting its fluorescence depletion. This technique unravels Rydberg states, which cannot be accesse ...
The cage-induced stabilization of fragments in excited electronic states following the UV-dissocn. of ICN in cryogenic matrixes is discussed. Emission spectra recorded upon ~A-band excitation of ICN in solid Ne, Ar and Kr exhibit a long progression of broa ...
