Research Abstract |
Fullerenes, nano-capsules, are widely regarded as media to transport energy and materials. In order to elucidate capsule opening and closing reactions, the photodissociation initiated by one-photon excitation was investigated. An experimental apparatus which enables us to observe images of spatial scattering distributions of photofragments was developed. Although imaging of neutral fragments has not been achieved yet, accurate images of ionic fragments were obtained. Knowledge on the reaction dynamics such as flow of excess energy was obtained from the images.
