Abstract

Starting from a previously derived correlation function expression the rate for intersystem crossing has been evaluated. It is found that only 66% (55%) of the energy goes into the CH (CD) breathing mode. The other major energy sinks involve the totally symmetric skeletal breathing mode (990 cm-1), the e2g stretching mode (1584 cm-1) and, to a smaller extent, the out-of-plane vibrations.
