To improve the luminescence characteristics of high-efficiency alternating-current plasma display panels (AC-PDPs), we developed a new hoof-type electrode structure, and we studied the spatiotemporal behavior of the density of the excited Xenon atom in the $1s_5$ metastable state via laser absorption spectroscopy. Using this structure, the maximum density of the excited Xenon atom per cell was improved by 2.4 times that when the conventional electrode structure was used.

Mediumeffects have been explored on the competitive H-atom abstraction and SET-promoted, silyl-transfer reactions of excited states of silylalkyl-substituted phenyl ketones. The chemical selectivities of photochemical reactions of silylalkyl phenyl ketones appear to depend on medium polarity, medium silophilicity, added metal cation and alkyl length. Irradiations of silylalkylketones in aqueous solvent system and in presence of metal cation such as $Li^+$ and $Mg^{+2} $lead to formation of acetophenone predominantly by the sequential SET-silyl transfer route.

We investigated experimentally the influence of the generation efficiency for excited Xe atoms on ultra-fine horizontal cell pitch AC PDPs. In the case of a 0.1 mm cell pitch, the sustain voltage increased; however, the generation efficiency was equal to or higher than for the conventional 0.22 mm cell pitch.

When isolated phenol or a small phenol-solvent cluster is excited to the $S_1\;state\;of\;{\pi}{\pi}^*$ character, the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group dissociates via a ${\pi}{\sigma}^*$ state that is repulsive along the O-H bond. We computationally investigated the substitution effects of an amino group on the excited state hydrogen transfer reaction of phenol. The time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with B3LYP functional was employed to calculate the potential energy profiles of the ${\pi}{\pi}^*$ and the ${\pi}{\sigma}^*$ excited states along the O-H coordinate, together with the orbital shape at each point, as the position of the substituent was varied. It was found that the amino substitution has an effect of lowering the ${\pi}{\sigma}^*$ state and enhancing the excited state hydrogen transfer reaction.

In the three-level atom interacting with a single mode radiation field, two-photon excitation between the ground state and the upper most excited state is investigated. Using the resolvant theory, the effective resolvant, containing the ground state and the final excited state, is found and the coupling constant and the detuning being taken as parameters, the excitation mechanism is analyzed. In particular. by introducing an ensemble of effective two-level atoms, a consistent interpretation in terms of inteference phenomena is pursued. rsued.

In order to investigate the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process of dihydroxyanthraquinones (DHAQ; 1,5-DHAQ and 1,8-DHAQ) in organic-inorganic hybrid matrices, transparent SiO2, SiO2- Al2O3, and Al2O3 matrices chemically bonded with DHAQ were prepared using a sol-gel technique. The absorption maxima of 1,5- and 1,8-DHAQ in SiO2 matrices are observed at around 420 nm, whereas those of DHAQ in both SiO2-Al2O3 and Al2O3 matrices are markedly shifted to longer wavelength compared with those in SiO2 matrix. This indicates that DAHQ forms a chemical bond with an Al atom of Al2O3. The DHAQ in SiO2 matrix shows a markedly Stokes-shifted emission which is originated from the ESIPT in DHAQ. Based on the emission lifetimes of DHAQ, the ESIPT of DHAQ was found to be strongly affected by the chemical interaction with Al atom in the Al2O3-related matrices.

We have studied the dynamics of energy-rich hydrogen molecules produced on a graphite surface through H(g) + H(ad)/C(gr) → $H_2$ + C(gr) at thermal conditions mimicking the interstellar medium using a classical trajectory procedure. The recombination reaction of gaseous H atom at 100 K and the adsorbed H atom on the interstellar graphite grains at 10 K efficiently takes place on a subpicosecond time scale with most of the reaction exothermicity depositing in the product vibration, which leads to a strong vibrational population inversion. The molecules produced in nearly end-on geometry where H(g) is positioned below H(ad) rotate clockwise and are more highly rotationally excited. but in low-lying vibrational levels. The rotational axis of most of the molecule rotating clockwise is tilted from the surface normal by more than 30°, the intensity peaking at 35°. The molecules produced when H(ad) is close to the surface rotate counter-clockwise and are weakly rotationally excited, but highly vibrationally excited. These molecules tend to align their rotational axes parallel to the surface. The number of molecules rotating clockwise is eight times larger than that rotating counter-clockwise.

Aqueous 6-hydroxyquinoline in the first excited singlet state undergoes protonation to the imine group first in 15 ps, then in the time scale of 40 ps deprotonation from the enol group and finally, however, quickly as in 11 ps electron rearrangement to change into a resonance hybrid structure of quinoid-prevailing forms. Despite the fact that the decay time constant is smaller than the formation time constant, fluorescence from excited protropic zwitterion is observed to assign its maximum at 510 nm. The electron rearrangement is basically an intramolecular charge transfer from the deprotonated oxygen atom to the positively charged iminium ring without any notable change in nuclear geometry, producing a zwitterionic quinoid structure with much a smaller electric dipole moment than the zwitterionic protropic species. This photoproduct formed by consecutive excited state proton and electron transfers shows a smaller dipole moment in S1 than in S0 and a hypsochromic shift although its S1 state has (π, π*) character.

We have calculated the ${\pi}$-electron density, atom self-polarizability, and free valence on each atom of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium, N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, and N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium salts using a simple Huckel method in order to discuss their intramolecular photocyclization reaction in a qualitative method. Our calculation qualitatively predicts that photocyclization occurs through forming radicals as a reaction intermediate by breaking a C-Cl bond after photoexcitation into a triplet state via intersystem crossing from an initially excited singlet state. We noticed that this C-Cl bond breaking is aided by ${\pi}$-complex formation between a chlorine atom and the ${\pi}$ -electrons of the neighboring ring in the triplet state and a stronger ${\pi}$-complex bond makes C-Cl bond breaking, i.e., radical formation, much easier. A chlorine atom will form a stronger ${\pi}$ -complex bond to a benzyl ring of N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium than a pyridinium ring of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium because the former can donate its ${\pi}$-electron more easily than the latter. The chlorine at position 15 of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium salt in the excited state also provides its ${\pi}$-electron to the benzyl ring. So this ${\pi}$-electron can increase the bond strength of the $\pi-complex.$ Therefore, the strength of ${\pi}$-complex follows the order of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, and N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium salts and thus the radical formation rate. This provides us with an intramolecular photocyclization reaction rate of the same order as given above.
