Investigating core-excited states of nitrosyl chloride (ClNO) and their break-up dynamics following Auger decay
摘要: The fragmentation of ClNO upon resonant core-electron excitation to the LUMO and LUMO+1 orbitals at the N and O K-edges is investigated. The produced fragment ions were detected in coincidence with a position sensitive ion time-of-flight detector which enables deduction of the angular distribution of the ions. This facilitates a comparison between the two resonances and the two K-edges with respect to fragmentation time, transition dipole moment orientation, fragment yield of single-ion and ion-pair channels, and fragmentation mechanisms. We observe significant correlations between the core-excited site and the location of the bonds that are broken, as well as the dissociation time. Moreover, we observe preferential cleavage of specific bonds upon excitation to the LUMO and LUMO+1 states which can be attributed to their orbital character.

Let Digons be Bygones: The Fate of Excitons in Curved π-Systems
摘要: We explore the diverse origins of unpolarized absorption and emission of molecular polygons, consisting of π-conjugated oligomer chains held in a bent geometry by strain controlled at the vertex units. For this purpose, we make use of atomistic nonadiabatic excited-state molecular dynamics simulations of a bichromophore molecular polygon (digon) with bent chromophore chains. Both structural and photoexcited dynamics were found to affect polarization features. Bending strain induces exciton localization on individual chromophore units of the conjugated chains. The latter display different transition dipole moment orientations, a feature not present in the linear oligomer counterparts. In addition, bending makes exciton localization very sensitive to molecular distortions induced by thermal fluctuations. The excited-state dynamics reveals an ultrafast intramolecular energy redistribution that spreads the exciton equally among spatially separated chromophore fragments within the molecular system. As a result, digons become virtually unpolarized absorbers and emitters, in agreement with recent experimental studies on the single-molecule level.
