We report a new variant of the femtosecond transition-state spectroscopy technique−transient stimulated emission pumping (TSEP). The initial application of TSEP to studies of ozone visible photodissociation indicates that the molecule is trapped in the Franck–Condon region for ∼90 fs. The wave packet then spreads along the reaction coordinate.
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.
