摘要
We report the results of theoretical studies of the time-resolved femtosecond photoelectron spectroscopy of quantum wavepackets through the conical intersection between the first two (2)A(') states of NO2. The Hamiltonian explicitly includes the pump-pulse interaction, the nonadiabatic coupling due to the conical intersection between the neutral states, and the probe interaction between the neutral states and discretized photoelectron continua. Geometry- and energy-dependent photoionization matrix elements are explicitly incorporated in these studies. Photoelectron angular distributions are seen to provide a clearer picture of the ionization channels and underlying wavepacket dynamics around the conical intersection than energy-resolved spectra. Time-resolved photoelectron velocity map images are also presented.
