Tóm tắt

It is observed that the photoexcitation efficiency of neutral long-lived states in a trans-polyacetylene chain increases with increasing photon energy of the excitation. The observed effect is given an interpretation according to which the energy of a photon above the optical absorption edge is added to the excitation of the vibrational subsystem, increasing sharply the probability that the chain relaxes into a long-lived deformed neutral state.
