Intersystem crossing spin orbit coupling mechanism

The introduction of the photochemically excited triplet mechanism leading to CIDEP of the resulting radicals has added a new dimension to the potentials of the CIDEP techniques in photochemistry. In liquid photochemical systems, very little is known experimentally about the exact nature of the intersystem crossing process, but the rate or efficiency of such ISC process can sometimes be estimated by chemical (86) and optical methods (51,105). The treatment of the phototriplet mechanism in CIDEP of radicals in liquid solution is consistent with the following conclusions (1) ISC occurs mainly by the spin-orbit coupling mechanism in carbonyl compounds, (2) spin polarization of the triplet sub-levels is obtained via the selective ISC processes, and (3) the chemical reaction rate of the triplet is at least comparable to its depolarization rate via spin-lattice relaxation. [Pg.320]

The phenomenon of electron spin polarization in photoexcited triplet molecules in solids has been known for quite some time (39,51,52). The mechanism is associated with the unequal populations of the triplet sublevels induced by the spin-selective nature of the spin-orbit coupling interactions which couple the excited singlet and triplet states during the intersystem crossing (ISC) process. In the presence of an external magnetic field the spin polarization in the molecular frame can be transferred to the laboratory frame for esr observation. Kim and Weissman (83,84) have recently demonstrated beautifully that the initial polarization following photoexcitation of the triplet molecules such as pentacene in dilute solid solution can be readily observed up to a temperature of 275°K. [Pg.297]

Bearpark et al. studied styrene (8) cis-trans photoisomerization in the CASSCF(8,8)/4-31G approximation with the one-electron approximation for and effective nuclear charges and concluded that it occurs on the Si surface. Experimentally, two mechanisms had been suggested, with a possible role for the triplet state. The intersystem crossing to the Tg state is expected to be inefficient because of a small calculated spin-orbit coupling (<1 cm i). [Pg.149]
