Time-resolved Auger-Meitner spectroscopy of the photodissociation dynamics of CS2

Time-resolved Auger-Meitner spectroscopy of the photodissociation dynamics of CS2
Time-resolved Auger-Meitner spectroscopy of the photodissociation dynamics of CS2
The photodissociation dynamics of UV excited CS2 are investigated using time-resolved Auger-Meitner spectroscopy. Auger-Meitner decay is initiated by inner-shell ionisation with a femtosecond duration X-ray (179.9 eV) probe generated by the FERMI free electron laser. The time-delayed X-ray probe removes an electron from the S(2p) orbital leading to secondary emission of a high energy electron through Auger-Meitner decay. We monitor the electron kinetic energy of the Auger-Meitner emission as a function of pump-probe delay and observe time-dependent changes in the spectrum that correlate with the formation of bound, excited-state CS2 molecules at early times, and CS + S fragments on the picosecond timescale. The results are analysed based on a simplified kinetic scheme that provides a time constant for dissociation of approximately 1.2 ps, in agreement with previous time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements (Gabalski, et al. J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2023, 14, 7126–7133).

Abstract

The photodissociation dynamics of UV excited CS2 are investigated using time-resolved Auger-Meitner spectroscopy. Auger-Meitner decay is initiated by inner-shell ionisation with a femtosecond duration X-ray (179.9 eV) probe generated by the FERMI free electron laser. The time-delayed X-ray probe removes an electron from the S(2p) orbital leading to secondary emission of a high energy electron through Auger-Meitner decay. We monitor the electron kinetic energy of the Auger-Meitner emission as a function of pump-probe delay and observe time-dependent changes in the spectrum that correlate with the formation of bound, excited-state CS2 molecules at early times, and CS + S fragments on the picosecond timescale. The results are analysed based on a simplified kinetic scheme that provides a time constant for dissociation of approximately 1.2 ps, in agreement with previous time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements (Gabalski, et al. J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2023, 14, 7126–7133).
