Multiphoton dissociation dynamics of BrCl and the BrCl+ cation

Ion imaging methods have enabled identification of three mechanisms by which (79)Br(+) and (35)Cl(+) fragment ions are formed following one-color multiphoton excitation of BrCl molecules in the wavelength range 324.6 > lambda > 311.7 nm. Two-photon excitation within this range populates select...

Zusammenfassung:Ion imaging methods have enabled identification of three mechanisms by which (79)Br(+) and (35)Cl(+) fragment ions are formed following one-color multiphoton excitation of BrCl molecules in the wavelength range 324.6 > lambda > 311.7 nm. Two-photon excitation within this range populates selected vibrational levels (v'= 0-5) of the [X (2)Pi(1/2)]5ssigma Rydberg state. Absorption of a third photon results in branching between (i) photoionization (i.e. removal of the Rydberg electron-a traditional 2 + 1 REMPI process) and (ii)pi*
