We combine sub-20 fs transient absorption spectroscopy with state-of-the-art computations to study the ultrafast photoinduced dynamics of trans-azobenzene (AB). We are able to resolve the lifetime of the ππ* state, whose decay within ca. 50 fs is correlated to the buildup of the nπ* population and to the emergence of coherences in the dynamics, to date unobserved. Nonlinear spectroscopy simulations call for the CNN in-plane bendings as the active modes in the subps photoinduced coherent dynamics out of the ππ* state. Radiative to kinetic energy transfer into these modes drives the system to a high-energy planar nπ*/ground state conical intersection, inaccessible upon direct excitation of the nπ* state, that triggers an ultrafast (0.45 ps) nonproductive decay of the nπ* state and is thus responsible for the observed Kasha rule violation in UV excited trans-AB. On the other hand, cis-AB is built only after intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution and population of the NN torsional mode.

紫外光诱导的振动相干性:理解偶氮苯中违反Kasha规则的关键

我们将低于20 fs的瞬态吸收光谱技术与最新技术相结合,以研究反式超快光致动力学-偶氮苯(AB)。我们能够解析ππ*状态的寿命,该状态在ca内衰减。50 fs与nπ*种群的增加以及动力学中相干性的出现相关(迄今为止尚未发现)。非线性光谱模拟要求CNN平面内弯曲是子空间中ππ*状态以外的光子相干动力学中的激活模式。辐射到动能的辐射传递到这些模式,将系统驱动到高能平面nπ* /基态圆锥形交点,当直接激发nπ*状态时无法访问该圆锥形交点,从而触发nπ*状态的超快(0.45 ps)非生产性衰减因此造成了紫外线激发反光中观察到的Kasha规则违反-AB。另一方面,仅在分子内振动能重新分配并填充NN扭转模式后,才能建立cis-AB。
