Molecular frame photoelectron emission in the presence of autoionizing resonances

We have measured the angular distribution of valence-shell photoelectrons excited by circularly polarized light from fixed-in-space N2O molecules, near to and on top of resonances due to Rydberg states embedded in the ionization continuum. The sign of the circular dichroism for ionization into the N2O+ (B2Pi, (1pi)-1) state is reversed on top of the lowest dominant resonances. Measured angular distributions are well predicted by state-of-the-art multichannel configuration interaction calculations. The change in sign of the circular dichroism at the peak of the resonance is the result of a rapid change in the phases of resonant dipole matrix elements by a factor of 2pi as the energy is scanned across the resonance.     

钠分子B^1∏u与2^1∑g^＋间的碰撞激发转移

The B 1pi(u) electronic state of Na2 was excited by the 441.6 nm He-Cd laser line. The Na atomic transitions and the A 1sigma(u)+ --> X 1sigma(g)+ band of Na2 were recorded. From the intensities and spectra of the Na and Na2 fluorescence several collisional processes in the excited sodium atom-dimer system were identified. The Na atomic lines are the result of collisional energy transfer from Na2 (B 1pi(u)) to Na(3P). Predissociation process may also contribute to atomic fluorescence. The A 1sigma(u)+ --> X 1sigma(g)+ band is interpreted through a populating mechanism involving collisional transfer from B 1pi(u) to 2 1sigma(g)+ followed by a radiative transfer to the A 1sigma(u)+ state. From the decay constants and fluorescence intensities, the rate coefficient at 360 degrees C for collisional energy transfer from Na2 (B 1pi(u)) to Na2 (2 1sigma(g)+) was found to be 5.7 x 10(-10) cm3 x s(-1). The predissociation rate of the B 1pi(u) is 2.7 x 10(6) s(-1).     

激光烧蚀Al热原子与CF4,CCl4,CH2Br2反应中激发态C2的形成

脉冲激光烧蚀平面铝靶产生的热原子与气相CF4,CCl4,CH2Br2的碰撞反应中,在430～600nm之间观测到激发态C2分子的发光光谱,它们可归属为Swan带的d^3Ⅱg=a^3Ⅱu跃迁中△v=2,1,0,-1,-2五个振动序列(v′≤6)。谱强度分析表明,C2激发态可很好的用热平衡描述,其振动温度达6000K左右。同时在△v=0和-1的振动带间观测到振荡的谱峰,它们是转动谱线叠加的结果。激光烧蚀Al产生的等离子体在膨胀中产生的激波及其本身的动能与反应气体碰撞使其解离产生C,然后复合形成C2。C2激发态d可能是通过激发态的Al(^2S)经近共振传能产生,也不排除在有足够碰撞能下优先形成C2激发态b,再通过与d态的v′=6能级交叉无辐射跃迁而进入d态。     

Measurement of the cascade transition via the first excited state of 16O in the 12C(alpha,gamma)16O reaction, and its S factor in stellar helium burning

Radiative alpha-particle capture into the first excited, J(pi)=0+ state of 16O at 6.049 MeV excitation energy has rarely been discussed as contributing to the 12C(alpha,gamma)16O reaction cross section due to experimental difficulties in observing this transition. We report here measurements of this radiative capture in 12C(alpha,gamma)16O for center-of-mass energies of E=2.22 MeV to 5.42 MeV at the DRAGON recoil separator. To determine cross sections, the acceptance of the recoil separator has been simulated in GEANT as well as measured directly. The transition strength between resonances has been identified in R-matrix fits as resulting both from E2 contributions as well as E1 radiative capture. Details of the extrapolation of the total cross section to low energies are then discussed [S6.0(300)=25(-15)(+16) keV b] showing that this transition is likely the most important cascade contribution for 12C(alpha,gamma)16O.     

利用发射光谱研究脉冲电晕放电中的自由基

利用发射光谱技术在大气压下测量了以氮气为载气的不饱和水蒸气体系针-板式正脉冲电晕放电产生的OH(A^2∑→X^2Ⅱ0—O)自由基和O(3p^5P→3s^5S^02777．4nm),Ha(3P→2S 656．3nm)活性原子的发射光谱,并由N2(C^3Ⅱu→B^3Ⅱg)的△v=-3和△v=-4振动带序发射光谱强度计算得出N2(C,v)的相对振动布居及其振动温度,进而采用高斯分布拟合准确地求出了N2(C^3Ⅱu→B^3Ⅱg)的△v= 1振动带序发射光谱强度,从而可以由N2(C^3Ⅱu→B^3Ⅱg)的△v= 1振动带序与OH(A^2∑→X^2Ⅱ0—0)的重叠发射光谱中准确求出OH(A^2∑→X^2Ⅱ0—0)自由基的发射光谱强度。由发射光谱强度得到了激发态OH(A^3∑)自由基和O(3p^5P),Ha(3P)活性原子的布居。还研究了激发态OH(A^2∑)自由基和O(3p^5P),Ha(3P)活性原子的布居随放电电压和放电频率的变化以及氧气对激发态OH(A^2∑)自由基和O(3p^5P),Ha(3P)活性原子布居的影响。     

Observation of orbitally excited B(s) mesons

We report the observation of two narrow resonances consistent with states of orbitally excited (L=1) B_(s) mesons using 1 fb;(-1) of pp[over ] collisions at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. We use two-body decays into K- and B+ mesons reconstructed as B(+)-->J/psiK(+), J/psi-->mu(+)mu(-) or B(+)-->D[over ](0)pi(+), D[over ](0)-->K(+)pi(-). We deduce the masses of the two states to be m(B_(s1))=5829.4+/-0.7 MeV/c(2) and m(B_(s2);(*))=5839.6+/-0.7 MeV/c;(2).     

CS2中对苯醌n-π*单-三态跃迁的可见吸收光谱及其共振拉曼光谱

测量了对苯醌(p-benzoquinone,PBQ)在CS2中的可见吸收光谱,论证了该实验中发现的507 nm带来源于PBQ的n-π*单-三态跃迁.基于液芯光纤内共振拉曼散射可以提高拉曼光谱强度109倍这一技术,在10-3～10-6 mol·L-1的浓度范围首次探测到514.5 nm激光激发该跃迁而产生的共振拉曼光谱(1 439cm-1).分析认为该谱线来源于PBQ的n-π*单-三态跃迁的羰基伸缩振动(v c-o).实验发现,随着PBQ溶液浓度的降低,该谱线的拉曼频移发生蓝移.文章的研究结果将有助于理解PBQ电子结构与其光物理特性的相互关系,便于获得更丰富的分子结构信息.     

Observation of high-order quantum resonances in the kicked rotor

Quantum resonances in the kicked rotor are characterized by a dramatically increased energy absorption rate, in stark contrast to the momentum localization generally observed. These resonances occur when the scaled Planck's constant Planck's [over ]=r/s 4pi, for any integers r and s. However, only the variant Planck's [over ]=r2pi resonances are easily observable. We have observed high-order quantum resonances (s>2) utilizing a sample of low energy, noncondensed atoms and a pulsed optical standing wave. Resonances are observed for variant Planck's [over ]=r/16 4pi for integers r=2-6. Quantum numerical simulations suggest that our observation of high-order resonances indicate a larger coherence length (i.e., coherence between different wells) than expected from an initially thermal atomic sample.     

Dynamic stabilization in 1sigma(u)-->1pi(g) excited nitrogen clusters

High-resolution 1s near-edge spectra of molecular nitrogen and variable size nitrogen clusters obtained using monochromatic synchrotron radiation from the high brilliance BESSY-II storage ring facility are reported. The vibrationally resolved 1sigma(u)-->1pi(g) core-to-valence excitation band of clusters shows a distinct redshift of 6+/-1 meV relative to the isolated molecule, but the vibrational structure and linewidths are essentially unchanged. This shift is assigned to dynamic stabilization of 1sigma(u)-->1pi(g) excited molecules in clusters, arising from the dynamic dipole moment generated by core-hole localization in the low-symmetry cluster field. This leads to changes in intermolecular interactions compared to the ground-state cluster. Such spectral shifts are expected to occur generally in molecular clusters and in the corresponding condensed phase.     

基于密度泛函理论的肾上腺素分子的光谱分析

肾上腺素是一种神经和激素的传送体,研究肾上腺素分子的光谱和能级有助于了解其化学稳定性和药理作用。基于密度泛函理论（DFT）,利用Gaussian 09软件在B3LYP/6-311G（d,p）基组水平上对肾上腺素分子进行结构优化,采用含时密度泛函理论（TD-DFT）的PBE方法在def2tzvp基组水平上计算肾上腺素分子在气相中的前20个激发态,利用Multiwfn3.7（dev）软件绘制出其紫外光谱图并对激发性质进行分析。肾上腺素分子紫外光谱对应的主要跃迁是从基态分别到第1,2,4,8,15和16激发态的跃迁,其他的激发态的振子强度低于阈值0.03。理论计算得出肾上腺素的紫外光谱有两个吸收峰,分别位于206.23和273.92 nm,206.23 nm峰主要由基态跃迁到第16激发态形成,273.92 nm峰主要是基态跃迁到第2、4激发态形成,主要是由苯环上π→π*跃迁所产生,并与实验光谱吻合较好。对肾上腺素分子的激发态性质分析可知,上述吸收峰都是在最高占据轨道和最低空轨道的临近轨道跃迁产生的。利用密度泛函的PBE方法在6-311G（d, p）的基组水平上计算肾上腺素分子频率并绘制红外光谱,由振动分析可知,3 738和3 662 cm-1峰是由酚羟基O-H伸缩振动产生的特征吸收峰,3 715 cm-1峰是由醇羟基O-H伸缩振动产生的特征吸收峰,2 854 cm-1峰是由甲基的C18-H20键的伸缩振动产生的特征吸收峰,1 516和1 439 cm-1峰是苯环骨架的伸缩振动的特征吸收峰,1 279与1 057 cm-1峰分别是由C6-O10和C12-O23键伸缩振动产生的特征吸收峰,620 cm-1峰是N22-H17键摇摆振动的特征吸收峰。对比肾上腺素的实验红外光谱,发现理论光谱与实验光谱中各基团的特征吸收峰都较为明显且总体吻合较好。由于肾上腺素分子二聚体和多聚体之间形成氢键,分子间氢键的形成削弱了O-H键的强度,降低了能形成分子间氢键的羟基O-H的伸缩振动频率,从而导致实验光谱在3 500～2 500 cm-1之间呈现出一个宽峰。     

聚合物O-PPV的链间相互作用的研究

近年来,聚对苯乙炔(PPV)及其衍生物作为一类性能优良的电致发光材料而受到人们的广泛关注[1].这是因为聚合物发光材料能通过化学裁剪方法来改善发光效率、颜色、成膜性等特性.载流子形成激子以及激子的辐射和非辐射衰减过程向来是聚合物发光二极管(LEDs)发光的重要环节,因此研究聚合物的光物理过程对提高器件的发光特性是非常重要的.     

Selective suppression and excitation of solid-state NMR resonances based on quadrupole coupling constants

The dependence of the (Rotor Assisted Population Transfer) RAPT enhancement on offset frequency for nuclei experiencing different quadrupolar couplings has been exploited to design two new spectral editing schemes, pi/2-RAPT and RAPT-pi-RAPT, for the selective excitation or suppression, respectively, of nuclei with large quadrupolar couplings. Both approaches are demonstrated on the 87 Rb spectrum of Rb(2)SO(4), which contains two resonances with C(q) values of 2.6 and 5.3 MHz. The conditions for optimal selectivity are discussed. Combining pi/2-RAPT with the RIACT MQ-MAS experiment it is also demonstrated how a pure absorption mode triple quantum MQ-MAS spectrum devoid of narrow resonances can be obtained.     

The v(1)+v(3) Bands of the (16)O(17)O(16)O and (16)O(16)O(17)O Isotopomers of Ozone

Using 0.002 cm(-1) resolution Fourier transform absorption spectra of an (17)O enriched ozone sample, an extensive analysis of the v(1)+v(3) bands of the (16)O(17)O(16)O and (16)O(16)O(17)O isotopomers of ozone has been performed for the first time. The experimental rotational levels of the (101) vibrational states were satisfactorily reproduced using a Hamiltonian matrix that takes into account the observed rovibrational resonances. More precisely, for (16)O(17)O(16)O, as for the other C(2v)-type ozone isotopomers, it was necessary to account for the Coriolis type resonances linking the (101) rotational levels with the levels of the (200) and (002) vibrational states and the Darling-Dennison interaction coupling the levels of (200) with those of (002). For the C(s)-type isotopomer, namely (16)O(16)O(17)O, as for (16)O(16)O(18)O and (16)O(18)O(18)O, it proved necessary to also account for an additional DeltaK(a)&equals+/-2 resonance involving the rotational levels from (101) and (002) (J.-M. Flaud and R. Bacis, Spectrochimica Acta Part A 54, 3-16 (1998)). Using a Hamiltonian matrix which takes these resonances explicitly into account, precise vibrational energies and rotational and coupling constants were deduced, leading to the following band centers: v(0)(v(1)+v(3))=2078.3496 cm(-1) for (16)O(17)O(16)O and v(0)(v(1)+v(3))=2098.8631 cm(-1) for (16)O(16)O(17)O.

橙皮素电场作用的分子结构和红外光谱理论研究

橙皮素(HES)是一种二氢黄酮药物, 为研究在外电场(EEF)作用下, HES的分子结构和光谱的变化,利用密度泛函理论(DFT)以及6-311G(d,p)基组,在C2-C1方向施加EEF(-0.005～0.010 a.u.)并优化HES分子的基态几何构型, 研究了分子总能量、键长、红外光谱(IR)、偶极矩(DM)和HOMO-LUMO能隙。在优化结构的基础上,采用含时密度泛函理论(TDDFT),探究不同EEF对紫外可见吸收光谱(UV-Vis)、激发态(ES)的影响。结果显示,无EEF时,HES分子中C1-O18和C2-C26间的单键都优化成了双键,转变为烯醇式结构,这样分子中更多的基团构成一个共轭体系,形成最稳定的结构。随着EEF的增强,分子总能量先升后降,DM则先降后增,键长的变化复杂。当正向负向EEF都增强时,由于HES分子中不同化学键的振动产生的IR吸收峰(AP),相应地出现了不同的频谱移动,各个AP的强度也有不同的变化。无EEF时, UV-Vis在223.6和262 nm处有2个AP,分别处于E₂带、K带。223.6 nm处的AP随着EEF的增大出现了蓝移(BS),当EEF大于0.002 5 a.u.谱峰消失;262 nm处的AP在正向EEF下出现红移(RS),吸收强度随EEF的增强呈现衰弱趋势,当EEF为0.01 a.u.时, 谱峰RS至283 nm,强度达到最小值5 889.64 L·mol-1·cm-1;在负向EEF下出现BS,且吸收强度均增强,在EEF为-0.002 5 a.u.时, 谱峰BS至261 nm,强度增至最大值为12 500.36 L·mol-1·cm-1。当正向负向EEF都增强时,分子的能隙和激发态能量(EE)均呈现减小趋势,说明HES分子易被激发而处于活跃状态。在无EEF时, OS均大于零, 表明能够被激发。当不断加强正向EEF时, ES的OS均先升高再降低; 在负向EEF下OS有复杂的变化。分析EEF下物质的分子结构和光谱, 将为探究橙皮素的药效对其进行电场解离提供理论参考。     

Saturation spectroscopy of CO2 and frequency stabilization of an optical parametric oscillator at 2.77 μm

We report the frequency stabilization of a CW single-frequency, singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) to the saturation absorption center of the (12)C(16)O2[10°1,02°1](II)>←00°0 P(14) line at 2.77 μm. The CO2 molecules were excited by the OPO idler wave, and the absorption signal was monitored through the fluorescence at 4.3 μm using a gold-coated longitudinal cell. The idler frequency was stabilized onto the line center by wavelength modulation method. The linewidth of the saturation dip was estimated to be 4.7 MHz, and the achieved frequency stability was 3.9 kHz (3.6×10(-11)).     

Mirroring doubly excited resonances in argon

New features are revealed in the low-energy photoionization spectrum of Ar by critically combining high photon resolution and differential photoelectron spectroscopic techniques. Two LS-forbidden doubly excited resonances are seen in the 3p(-1)(3/2, 1/2) partial cross sections which exhibit mirroring profiles, resulting in complete cancellation in the total photoionization cross section, as was predicted by Liu and Starace [Phys. Rev. A 59, R1731 (1999)]. These results demonstrate that a new class of weakly spin-orbit induced, mirroring resonances should be observable in partial, but not in total, collisional cross sections involving atoms, molecules, and solids in general.     

C42〈Al〉C32〈Si〉等混合物吸收光谱特性

A NEXAFS and UPS study of the adsorption of tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, iso-, cis-and trans-dichloroethylene on platinum surfaces at 95 K: multilayers and monolayers

UPS spectra of multilayers and monolayers of chlorinated ethylene molecules condensed or adsorbed on Pt(111) and Pt(110)(1 × 2) surfaces at 95 K are in close agreement. It shows that adsorption of these molecules is not dissociative and that they are weakly bonded to the surfaces in the monolayer range. NEXAFS has also been used in the case of Pt(111) samples. The multilayer spectra compare well with the analogous spectra of the fluorinated molecules, and the spacings between the various C 1s levels agree with the corresponding values for the π^* transitions. This shows that these resonances involve C 1s core level transitions to unoccupied π^* levels, which are located at almost the same energy in the excited state. The polarization dependence of the synchrotron light indicates that for monolayers the C=C axis and molecular planes arc parallel to the surface. The π^* resonance widths confirm that the adsorption of all chlorinated molecules is not dissociative at low temperatures, as suggested from the catalytic destruction of unsaturated chlorinated C2 compounds which occurs only at high temperatures. Above 120–130 K and under vacuum, desorption depletes the surface without conversion to a more firmly bonded species, a process occurring under catalytic conditions.     

Charmonium Decays of Y(4260), psi(4160), and psi(4040)

Using data collected with the CLEO detector operating at the CESR e+e- collider at sqrt[s]=3.97-4.26 GeV, we investigate 15 charmonium decay modes of the psi(4040), psi(4160), and Y(4260) resonances. We confirm, at 11 sigma significance, the BABAR Y(4260)-->pi+pi- J/psi discovery, make the first observation of Y(4260)--> pi(0)pi(0) J/psi (5.1 sigma), and find the first evidence for Y(4260)-->K+K- J/psi(3.7 sigma). We measure e+e- cross sections at sqrt[s]=4.26 GeV as sigma(pi+pi- J/psi)=58(+12)(-10)+/-4 pb, sigma(pi(0)pi(0) J/psi)=23(+12)(-8)+/-1 pb, and sigma(K+K- J/psi)=9(+9)(-5)+/-1 pb, in which the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. Upper limits are placed on other decay rates from all three resonances.     

Observation of anomalous upsilon(1S)pi+pi(-) and upsilon(2S)pi+pi(-) production near the upsilon(5S) resonance

We report the first observation of e;{+}e;{-}-->Upsilon(1S)pi;{+}pi;{-}, Upsilon(2S)pi;{+}pi;{-}, and first evidence for e;{+}e;{-}-->Upsilon(3S)pi;{+}pi;{-}, Upsilon(1S)K+K-, near the peak of the Upsilon(5S) resonance at sqrt[s] approximately 10.87 GeV. The results are based on a data sample of 21.7 fb;{-1} collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e;{+}e;{-} collider. Attributing the signals to the Upsilon(5S) resonance, the partial widths Gamma(Upsilon(5S)-->Upsilon(1S)pi;{+}pi;{-})=0.59+/-0.04(stat)+/-0.09(syst) MeV and Gamma(Upsilon(5S)-->Upsilon(2S)pi;{+}pi;{-})=0.85+/-0.07(stat)+/-0.16(syst) MeV are obtained from the observed cross sections. These values exceed by more than 2 orders of magnitude the previously measured partial widths for dipion transitions between lower Upsilon resonances.
