Laser-Excited Hot-Electron Induced Desorption
The quest for femtochemistry provided a guiding motivation for many researchers [1,2] far in advance of the award of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Ahmed Zewail “for his pioneering investigation of fundamental chemical reactions, using ultra short laser flashes, on the time scale on which the reactions actually occur” [3]. The rich array of possibilities that femtochemistry potentially of...
متن کاملElectron- and photon-stimulated desorption of atomic hydrogen from radiation-modified alkali halide surfaces
The desorption yields of excited hydrogen atoms from the surfaces of KCl, KBr, NaCl, NaF, and LiF have been measured as a function of incident photon and electron energy and flux, time of irradiation, dosing pressure of H2 and sample temperature. As these surfaces are exposed to H2 gas during electron or photon bombardment, the fluorescence from excited hydrogen atoms ejected from the surface i...
متن کاملMicroscopic Parameters in the Excited State of Toluene and Some of Its Haloderavatives
The Ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectra of toluene, ortho-bromo and para-bromo toluene in different solvents have been studied. The electric dipole moments and polarizabilities in the molecular excited electronic states were determined. It was found that the electric dipole moments for the excited states (µ*) and the ground states (µ) of these compounds are equal, and the change in dipole moment i...
متن کاملH2O photodissociation dynamics based on potential energy surfaces from density functional calculations
We investigate the usefulness of density functional theory ~DFT! for calculating excited state potential energy surfaces. In the DFT calculations, the generalized gradient approximation ~GGA! is used. As a test case, the photodissociation of H2O through the first excited à B1 state was considered. Two-dimensional potential energy surfaces were obtained for both the X̃ A1 ground state and the fir...
متن کاملFemtosecond photodesorption of small molecules from surfaces: a theoretical investigation from first principles.
A microscopic model for the excitation and relaxation processes in photochemistry at surfaces is developed. Our study is based on ab initio calculations and the surrogate Hamiltonian method treating surface electron-hole pairs as a bath of two-level systems. Desorption probabilities and velocities in the experimentally observed range are obtained. The excited state lifetime is calculated, and a...
