Laser two-photon ionization spectrometry of perylene and naphthacene in hexane

Abstract: The two-photon Ionization spectra of perylene and naphthacene In hexane have been measured with tunable dye lasers. They have shown structure, which can be correlated with the onephoton absorption spectra. The signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio has been evaluated as functlons of the excitatlon wavelength and the laser pulse energy, and the detection limit depended on the excitation wavelength, the laser pulse energy, and the molar absorptivity. The lowest detection limits ( S I N = 3) of perylene and naphthacene were… Show more

“…Sir: Laser two-photon ionization spectrometry in solution is relatively new and is a sensitive and versatile technique for the detection of organic molecules that absorb photons (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). The photocurrent signal correlates with the one-photon absorption spectrum, but the blank signal substantially increases with decreasing excitation wavelength below about 400 nm (7, 8).…”

“…The photocurrent signal correlates with the one-photon absorption spectrum, but the blank signal substantially increases with decreasing excitation wavelength below about 400 nm (7, 8). The detection sensitivity of this technique depends on laser power (8), excitation wavelength (7,8), molar absorptivity of a molecule (4, [6][7][8], and some other experimental conditions (9). The use of an intense laser at a longer wavelength with a larger molar absorptivity will improve the detection sensitivity (8), but the improvement will be limited by saturation effects (10).…”

“…13,14 It is clear that there is a good correspondence between the positions of the absorption peaks and those of the ionization peaks. Furthermore, in the case of ionization spectra, there is a tendency of an increase in the signal intensity toward shorter wavelengths (vide infra).…”

“…This form of excited-state up-pumping is common in high-power, pulsed-laser excitation of molecules. It can lead to significant upper excited-state populations and photoionization in solution (the latter process has been used for sensitive detection [25][26][27]). Despite its potential value for ionization detection and its fundamental role in pulsed-laser photochemistry, excited-state up-pumping is very difficult to study because intermediate upper states are generally very short-lived and nonfluorescent.…”
