Abstrakt: The integral encounter theory (IET) has been extended to the reactions limited by diffusion along the reaction coordinate to the level crossing points where either thermal or hot electron transfer occurs. IET describes the bimolecular ionization of the instantaneously excited electron donor D* followed by the hot geminate backward transfer which precedes the ion pair equilibration and its subsequent thermal recombination. We demonstrate that the fraction of ion pairs which avoids the hot recombination is much smaller than their initial number when the electron tunneling is strong. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
