Abstract

A frequency-doubled, continuous tunable dye laser has been employed with a bandwidth of 0.5 cm-1 in the UV to yield high resolution dynamic information about vibronic excited states of naphthalene in the collisionless region. The results show strong variations of lifetimes in the various sequence modes identified in high resolution absorption spectra. The evidence points to a strong contribution from both Franck-Condon factors as well as symmetry considerations.
