Abstract :
Time resolved pump-probe spectroscopy has experienced considerable improvements in the past two decades, especially with the advent of tunable femtosecond lasers such as noncollinear optical parametric amplifiers (NOPA). Electron transfer show that technical advancements in generating ultrabroad continua greatly simplify the unraveling of complex photoreactions ubiquitous in large molecules.
