✦ Synopsis


Fast magnetic field sweeps ( ~ 5 X 10 s G s-t ) are used for passage through an avoided crossing in the photoexcited triplet state of pentacene in p-terphenyl crystals. When Bollx (molecular long axis), there is a level crossing calculated to be near 143 G. Our experiments reveal that the crossing is an avoided one, and the passage through the crossing is adiabatic. Our findings are consistent with the Landau-Zener-Stueckelberg theory of passage through an avoided crossing. By applying radio frequency pulses in the neighborhood of the avoided crossing we estimate the magnitude of the energy gap: 25 + 8 MHz.

We have recently demonstrated that polarization transfer using an adiabatic passage through the Hartmann-Hahn condition (APHH-CP) by a variation of the radio-frequency amplitude can substantially improve the transfer efficiency over Hartmann-Hahn cross polarization. Here we show that APHH-CF' can be

We present quantum mechanical calculations of the nonadiabatic time-evolution of molecular states in a model system. The simultaneous coherent excitation of two different electronic states is simulated. The repulsive potential energy curves representing the excited states undergo an avoided crossing
