The dependence of the population dynamics on intensity, time, wavelength and polarisation of the illuminating light and on the temperature of both metastable states in Na 2 [Fe(CN)sNO]. 2H20 single crystals is investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. The population and depopulation behaviour can be described by exponential functions. The wavelength dependence shows the spectral range in which both states can be excited and the existence of a transfer process from state II into state I. Further, light of the near infrared region, transfers state I into state II.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
