The butterfly vibration during the hydrogen tunneling process in electronically excited o-fluorophenol has been visualized in real time by femtosecond time-resolved ion yield spectroscopy coupled with time-resolved photoelectron imaging technique. A coherent superposition of out-of-plane C–F butterfly motions is prepared in the first excited electronic state (S1). As the C–F bond vibrates with respect to the aromatic ring, the nuclear geometry varies periodically, leading to the corresponding variation in the photoionization channel. By virtue of the more favorable ionization probability from the nonplanar minimum via resonance with the Rydberg states, the evolution of the vibrational wave packet is manifested as a superimposed beat in the parent-ion transient. Moreover, time-resolved photoelectron spectra offer a direct mapping of the oscillating butterfly vibration between the planar geometry and nonplanar minimum. The beats for the photoelectron peaks originating from the planar geometry are out of phase with those from the nonplanar minimum. Our results provide a physically intuitive and complete picture of the oscillatory flow of energy responsible for the coherent vibrational motion on the excited state surface.
