K*Hen Exciplex Formation on the Surface of Helium Nanodroplets Studied in Real-time — •F. Stienkemeier1, D. Schumacher1, P. Claas1, and C.P.

Superfluid helium nanodroplets are doped with potassium atoms to form complexes with the alkali atom residing on the surface of the droplets. Dispersed laser-induced fluorescence spectra of such systems already revealed the formation of M*He (M=Na,K) exciplexes upon electronic excitation [1]. By means of femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy this formation process now is followed in real time. We find K*Hen=1 to be formed within 170 fs. Furthermore, the existence of exciplexes with n > 1 is quantified suggesting the first ring around the potassium atom consisting of 4 helium atoms.
