[19p-C303-9] Development of two-dimensional double resonance transient absorption spectrometer: Selective observation of multistep photoreaction by laser and white light excitation.
Keywords:two-dimensional transient absorption, white light excitation, photoisomerization
Observation of multistep reaction pathways is important to understand photoreaction mechanism. For the observation of multicolor multistep reaction pathways, we have developed a Fourier transform 2D transient absorption spectroscopy (FT-2DTAS) excited by white-light. In this report, the FT-2DTAS system was improved by introducing a laser pulse excitation in addition to the white light excitation, and we succeeded to observe the multistep reaction pathways of azobenzene derivatives by using the improved system.
