Abstract

A crow-bar technique employing a light-activated silicon switch is described to overcome stray electron effects in streak cameras. The technique is applied in picosecond fluorescence studies of intramolecular charge tranfer processes in a compound of the type A-(CH2)3-D (A: anthracene, D: dimethylaniline) where the locally excited state and the exciplex state are shown to be formed sequentially.
