Laser Studies of Equilibrium and Time Dependent Processes inBulk Liquids and Liquid Interfaces

本提案是实验物理化学计划的一部分，使用快速激光技术研究液体和液体蒸气界面的物理和化学过程的动力学。超短脉冲激光研究将在液体及其蒸气的体和界面上进行。将研究液体界面的取向结构、组成和动态过程。存在于界面而非散装液体中的不对称力的影响会导致介电和输运性质的变化，从而改变分子运动、化学平衡、光异构化和其他物理和化学非辐射过程。

This proposal, part of the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program, uses fast laser techniques to study the dynamics of physical and chemical processes in liquids and at liquid vapor interfaces. Ultrashort pulse laser studies will be performed in the bulk and the interface of the liquid and its vapor. Orientational structure, composition, and dynamic processes at liquid interfaces will be studied. The effects of the asymmetry in forces present at an interface, but not in the bulk liquid, result in a change in dielectric and transport properties, thereby altering molecular motions, chemical equilibria, photoisomerization and other physical and chemical nonradiative processes.
