摘要
Charge carrier dynamics in Co3O4 thin films are observed using high harmonic generation transient absorption spectroscopy at the Co M-2,M-3 edge. Results reveal that photoexcited Co3O4 decays to the ground state in 600 +/- 40 ps in liquid methanol compared to 1.9 +/- 0.3 ns in vacuum. Kinetic analysis suggests that surface-mediated relaxation of photoexcited Co3O4 may be the result of hole transfer from Co3O4 followed by carrier recombination at the Co(3)O(4)methanol interface.
