Laser photofragmentation and ultrafast time-resolved dynamics of mass-selected ionic species — •Christoph Riehn, Yevgeniy Nosenko, Dimitri Imanbaew, and Sebastian Kruppa — Fachbereich Chemie,TU Kaiserslautern, D-67663 Kaiserslautern, Erwin-Schroedinger-Str. 52

The influence of metal-metal or metal-ligand interaction on elementary processes (electronic coupling; energy, charge transfer and fragmentation dynamics) of mass-selected, isolated metal-ligand species is studied at a 50 fs-100 ps time scale. The newly designed experimental setup consists of a kHz 50 fs-amplified Ti:Sa-laser system equipped with two optical parametrical generator units and an electrospray ion trap mass spectrometer. The time-resolved measurements are based on pump-probe transient photofragmentation.[1] Our first results for the transient photofragmentation of protonated tryptophan at various pump-probe wavelengths will be discussed [2] and compared to the tryptophan-Ag+ complex, where charge transfer plays an important role. Finally, we present time-resolved measurements on a dianionic Diplatinum-complex [Pt2(P2O5H2)4H2]2- and its silver-containing derivative [Pt2(P2O5H2)4AgH]2-. It shows ultrafast electronic dynamics in the gas phase detected via the parallel channels of electron detachment and photofragmentation.
