Abstract

Two IR lasers are used in a pump–probe configuration to observe photo-induced isomerization between the linear and bent isomers of HCN–HF, formed in helium nanodroplets. Vibrational excitation of the C–H and H–F stretching modes of these complexes provides sufficient energy to surmount the barriers between them. The extent of population transfer is found to be different for pumping the two isomers. In the case of linear HCN–HF, the results suggest that the complex undergoes vibrational predissociation, followed by geminate recombination. Excitation of the higher energy bent HF–HCN isomer results in complete population transfer to the linear complex. This isomer specific population transfer provides important clues regarding the associated vibrational dynamics.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
