Separation of kinetic rate orders in extreme ultraviolet transient grating spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Serhii Polishchuk, Oliviero Cannelli, Michele Puppin, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

We present an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) transient grating (TG) experiment of the spinel Co3O4 compound using tuneable incident energies across the Co M-2,M-3-edge and a 395 nm probe pulse, detecting both the first and the second diffraction orders (SDOs). ...

Jahn-Teller effects in initial and final states: high-resolution X-ray absorption, photoelectron and Auger spectroscopy of allene

Majed Chergui, Luca Longetti, Thomas Roland Barillot, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Daniel Hollas, Ludmila Maria Diniz Leroy

Carbon K-edge resonant Auger spectra of gas-phase allene following excitation of the pre-edge 1s -> pi* transitions are presented and analysed with the support of EOM-CCSD/cc-pVTZ calculations. X-Ray absorption (XAS), X-ray photoelectron (XPS), valence ban ...

Ultrafast Energy Transfer from Photoexcited Tryptophan to the Haem in Cytochrome c

Majed Chergui, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Dominik Kinschel, Oliviero Cannelli, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Jérémy Raymond Jean Maurice Rouxel, Yang Zhao

: We report femtosecond Fe K-edge absorption (XAS) and nonresonant X-ray emission (XES) spectra of ferric cytochrome C (Cyt c) upon excitation of the haem (>300 nm) or mixed excitation of the haem and tryptophan (

Carbon K-edge x-ray emission spectroscopy of gas phase ethylenic molecules

Majed Chergui, Luca Longetti, Thomas Roland Barillot, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle

We report on the C K-edge x-ray absorption spectra and the resonant (RXES) and non-resonant (NXES) x-ray emission spectra of ethylene, allene and butadiene in the gas phase. The RXES and NXES show clear differences for the different molecules. Overall both ...

Broadband visible two-dimensional spectroscopy of molecular dyes

Majed Chergui, Andre Al Haddad, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Two-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopy is a promising technique to study ultrafast molecular dynamics. Similar to transient absorption spectroscopy, a more complete picture of the dynamics requires broadband laser pulses to observe transient change ...

Spin cascade and doming in ferric hemes: Femtosecond X-ray absorption and X-ray emission studies

Majed Chergui, Wojciech Gawelda, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Frederico Alves Lima, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Dominik Kinschel, Oliviero Cannelli, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Jérémy Raymond Jean Maurice Rouxel, Samuel Menzi

The structure-function relationship is at the heart of biology, and major protein deformations are correlated to specific functions. For ferrous heme proteins, doming is associated with the respiratory function in hemoglobin and myoglobins. Cytochrome c (C ...

Energy relaxation pathways between light-matter states revealed by coherent two-dimensional spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Coupling matter excitations to electromagnetic modes inside nano-scale optical resonators leads to the formation of hybrid light-matter states, so-called polaritons, allowing the controlled manipulation of material properties. Here, we investigate the phot ...

Ultrafast Intersystem Crossing and Structural Dynamics of [Pt(ppy)(mu-(t)Bu(2)pz)](2)

Majed Chergui, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Intersystem crossing (ISC) rates of transition-metal complexes are determined by the complex interplay of a molecule's electronic and structural dynamics. To broaden our understanding of these key factors, we investigate the case of the prototypical d(8)-d ...

Electronic Relaxation Dynamics of UV-Photoexcited 2-Aminopurine-Thymine Base Pairs in Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen Conformations

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The fluorescent analogue 2-aminopurine (2AP) of the canonical nucleobase adenine (6-aminopurine) base-pairs with thymine (T) without disrupting the helical structure of DNA. It therefore finds frequent use in molecular biology for probing DNA and RNA struc ...

Toward time-resolved laser T-jump/X-ray probe spectroscopy in aqueous solutions

Majed Chergui, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Dominik Kinschel, Benjamin Bauer, Oliviero Cannelli, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Most chemical and biochemical reactions in nature and in industrial processes are driven by thermal effects that bring the reactants above the energy barrier for reaction. In aqueous solutions, this process can also be triggered by the laser driven tempera ...

Efficient intersystem crossing in 2-aminopurine riboside probed by femtosecond time-resolved transient vibrational absorption spectroscopy

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The photophysical dynamics of 2-aminopurine riboside (2APr) in CHCl3 have been studied following excitation at (pump) = 310 nm by means of femtosecond transient vibrational absorption spectroscopy (TVAS) aided by quantum chemical density functional theory ...
