AbstractIn a novel modification of transient differential transmission spectroscopy, the first excited state S1 is reexcited via a second laser pulse towards a higher lying state Sn. The dynamics of the relaxation of this state Sn as well as the states created from Sn are revealed by a broad-band probe pulse.We find that the charge carrier generation efficiency from Sn is higher compared to S1. The push and probe durations below 20 fs enable the temporal resolution of the ultrafast relaxation of the Sn state and enables us to identify the two main contributions to enhanced charge generation from Sn, energy migration towards sites of high dissociation probability, and exciton dissociation during vibrational relaxation.

AbstractQuenching of vibrational excitations in resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of liquid acetic acid is observed. At the oxygen core resonance associated with localized excitations at the O–H bond, the spectra lack the typical progression of vibrational excitations observed in RIXS spectra of comparable systems. We interpret this phenomenon as due to strong rehybridization of the unoccupied molecular orbitals as a result of hydrogen bonding, which however cannot be observed in x-ray absorption but only by means of RIXS. This allows us to address the molecular structure of the liquid, and to determine a lower limit for the average molecular chain length.
