Solvation Dynamics and Ultrafast Electron Transfer

  • Conference paper
Perspectives in Photosynthesis

Abstract

Ultrafast fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to study two processes: (i) the transient solvation of electronically excited coumarin probes and (ii) the solvent mediated excited state intramolecular electron (charge) transfer of 9,9′—bianthryl and related compounds. The solvation measurements have been analyzed in terms of contemporary theory to gain insight on the molecular aspects of microscopic motion in polar liquids. The excited state electron transfer (et) examples are well modeled by an electronically adiabatic approach, employing an “outer sphere” generalized Langevin equation description of motion along the et reaction coordinate. The relationship between solvation and electron transfer dynamics is discussed.
