Stark Control of a Chiral Fluoroethylene Derivative
Hydrogen dissociation is an unwanted competing pathway if a torsional motion around the C=C double bond in a chiral fluoroethylene derivative, namely (4-methylcyclohexylidene) fluoromethane (4MCF), is to be achieved. We show that the excited state H-dissociation can be drastically diminished on time scales long enough to initiate a torsion around the C=C double bond using the nonresonant dynamic Stark effect. Potential energy curves, dipoles, and polarizabilities for the regarded one-dimensional reaction coordinate are calculated within the CASSCF method. The influence of the excitation and the laser control field is then simulated using wave packet dynamics.
