Vibrationally mediated photodissociation of NH3 and ND3 in the A band allows the exploration of the excited-state potential energy surface in regions that are not accessible from the ground vibrational state of these polyatomic systems. Using our recently developed coupled ab initio potential energy surfaces in a quasi-diabatic representation, we report here a full-dimensional quantum characterization of the à ← X̃ absorption spectra for vibrationally excited NH3 and ND3 and the corresponding nonadiabatic dissociation dynamics into the NH2(Ã(2)A1) + H and NH2(X̃(2)B1) + H channels. The predissociative resonances in the absorption spectra have been assigned with appropriate quantum numbers. The NH2(Ã(2)A1)/NH2(X̃(2)B1) branching ratio was found to be mildly sensitive to the initial vibrational excitation prior to photolysis. Implications for interpreting experimental data are discussed.
