Ultrafast Photophysics and Photochemistry of Radical Precursors in Solution

Download or read book Ultrafast Photophysics and Photochemistry of Radical Precursors in Solution written by Thomas Wolf and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The photoinduced dynamics of radical precursors in solution were investigated by means of femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy assisted by quantum chemical calculations. The investigated systems show a wide range of excited state lifetimes ranging from tens of femtoseconds to nanoseconds. Thus, in the first case, on the investigated time scale the dynamics of the generated radicals can be additionally investigated. In the latter case only the excited singlet lifetime is observable.
