Time-Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Dissociating 1,2-Butadiene Molecules by High Harmonic Pulses.
JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY LETTERS(2015)
摘要
Using 42 nm high harmonic pulses, the dissociation dynamics of 1,2-butadiene was investigated by time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (TRPES), enabling us to observe dynamical changes of multiple molecular orbitals (MOs) with higher temporal resolution than conventional light sources. Because each lower-lying occupied MO has particular spatial electron distribution, the structural dynamics of photochemical reaction can be revealed. On the femtosecond time scale, a short-lived excited state with a lifetime of 37 +/- 15 Is and the coherent oscillation of the photoelectron yield stimulated by Hertzberg-Teller coupling were observed. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations in the electronically excited state find three relaxation pathways from the vertically excited structure in S-1 to the ground state, and one of them is the dominant relaxation pathway, observed as the short-lived excited state. On the picosecond time scale, the photoelectron yields related to the C-C bond decreased upon photoexcitation, indicating C-C bond cleavage.
