Popis: | Through coherent excitation of a pair of vibronically coupled eigenlevels, an oscillation of 130 kcal/mol in energy excitation between electronic and vibrational motions (on a time scale of 10-8 s) is created for the triatomic molecule, sulfur dioxide (SO2). The reactivity of the molecule can be influenced depending upon whether the molecule is vibrationally or electronically excited with this substantial amount of energy. The effect of excitation on reactivity is demonstrated through SO2 photodissociation as a function of time following coherent excitation, monitored by multiphoton ionization of the SO product. |
