摘要
Photochemical isomerization of cis-stilbene in Ar and Kr clusters is studied by selectively measuring the transstilbene product formation rate with less than 1-psec time resolution. The observed trans-stilbene rise times are biexponential: The fast component is 1.7 ± 0.4 psec in Ar and 3.0 ± 0.3 psec in Kr, and the slow component is 16 ± 1 psec independently of the rare-gas solvent. It is proposed that the biexponential rise time is due to different decay rates for the vibrationally hot and relaxed phantom intermediate state. © 1990 Optical Society of America.
