Ultrafast internal conversion in highly excited toluene monomers and dimers — •Parviz Farmanara, Volker Stert, and Wolfgang Radloff — Max-Born-Institut für Nichtlineare Optik und Kurzzeitspektroskopie, Max-Born-Str. 2A, D-12489 Berlin

The dynamics of the internal conversion in toluene molecules and dimers excited to the electronic S2 state by 150fs laser pulses at 202nm has been studied in pump-probe experiments by detection of the ions and the coincident photoelectrons. The time-dependent ion signals reflect an ultrafast ≈50fs internal conversion from the excited S2 state down to the lower electronic S1 and S0 states for the monomer as well as the dimer. The decay of the secondarily populated S1 state proceeds within 4.3ps for the toluene molecule and more than 100ps for the dimer. The energy distribution of the photoelectron spectra for the monomer and the dimer ion demonstrates the significant geometry differences between the corresponding electronic states included in the processes of excitation, ionization and relaxation. The comparison of the electron spectra before and after the internal conversion out of the S2 state directly reflects the growth of the vibrational energy in the secondarily populated S1 states of the toluene monomer and dimer.
