Abstract

The kinetics and energetics of photoinduced reactions may be determined using picosecond optical calorimetry (POC). The technique is a hybrid of thermal lensing and transient grating spectroscopies. The methods for acquisition of diffraction waveforms and their analysis are described herein. Application of POC in three chemical systems and a detailed examination of the results from one system are also presented.
