Clocking transient chemical changes by ultrafast electron diffraction
Article Abstract:
Transient chemical changes during molecular dissociation could be detected by the use of ultrafast electron diffraction. These chemical and photobiochemical reactions are clocked by an initial femtosecond laser pulse and the second femtosecond pulse probed the dynamics. Photoelectron spectroscopy and mass spectroscopy are detection methods that have been used. The ability to clock changes is important in the study of the molecular structures dynamics.
