Imaging the mode-selected predissociation of OCS+[(nu(1)nu(2)nu(3))(B)over-tilde(2)Sigma(+)]
A new experimental approach to explore the mode-selected chemistry is proposed and demonstrated here. In this approach a double-resonance excitation scheme is exploited to prepare a well-defined mode or state of a parent ion. A time-sliced velocity imaging technique interrogates the fragment ion from the subsequent predissociation. Application to the title process reveals remarkable mode-specific behaviors despite the long dissociation time associated with the indirect bond-breaking process. A qualitative interpretation of the major findings is surmised.
