20 Water: vibrationally mediated photodissociation
OH( A ~ 2 S + ) ~ LIF A 1 B 1 ~ OH( X 2 P ) + H v OH = 4,0- v=0 ~ H2O (X A ) 1 1

21 The quantum beat approach:
Coherently detect excited molecules t P(t, E, ) J,K M Wait… Coherently prepare excited molecules

22 |4,0->; |5,0->; |4,0->|2>; |8,0+>
Water OH( A ~ 2 S + ) ~ A 1 B LIF 1 ~ OH( X 2 P ) + H v OH = 4,0- ma & mb for H2O & HDO in |4,0->; |5,0->; |4,0->|2>; |8,0+> v=0 ~ H2O (X A ) 1 1

23 Energy Level Diagram Double Resonance
1. Gain in excitation efficiency: 0.5 * 0.5 = vs n (double resonance) (direct transition) 2. Rotational pre-selection => simple assignment

24 Results for vOH=9: 111 211 Rotational selection rules: DJ = 0, ±1,
Dka = 0, Dkc = ±1 = 211

25 More results for vOH=9…

26 Results for vOH=10: x 50 More lines… S/N >3000

27 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS TOO MANY TO THANK INDIVIDUALLY BUT THANKS TO ALL!
