Many photoactive proteins contain chromophores based on para-substituted phenolate anions which are an essential component of their electronic structure. Here, we present a reductionist approach to gain fundamental insight into the evolution of elect...

Dynamics of π*-resonances in anionic clusters of para-toluquinone (2017)
Journal Article
Bull, J. N., & Verlet, J. R. (2017). Dynamics of π*-resonances in anionic clusters of para-toluquinone. Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 19(39), 26589-26595. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7cp03628k

Frequency-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy applied to mass-selected cluster anions is an insightful approach to characterise the dynamics of π*-resonances with microsolvation. Here, the technique is demonstrated with monomer, dimer and trimer radi... Read More about Dynamics of π*-resonances in anionic clusters of para-toluquinone.

Observation and ultrafast dynamics of a nonvalence correlation-bound state of an anion (2017)
Journal Article
Bull, J. N., & Verlet, J. R. (2017). Observation and ultrafast dynamics of a nonvalence correlation-bound state of an anion. Science Advances, 3(5), Article e1603106. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.1603106

Nonvalence states of molecular anions play key roles in processes, such as electron mobility, in rare-gas liquids, radiation-induced damage to DNA, and the formation of anions in the interstellar medium. Recently, a class of nonvalence bound anion st... Read More about Observation and ultrafast dynamics of a nonvalence correlation-bound state of an anion.

Sensitivity of Photoelectron Angular Distributions to Molecular Conformations of Anions (2017)
Journal Article
Anstöter, C. S., Dean, C. R., & Verlet, J. R. (2017). Sensitivity of Photoelectron Angular Distributions to Molecular Conformations of Anions. Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 8(10), 2268-2273. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.7b00726

An anion photoelectron imaging study probing the sensitivity of the photoelectron angular distribution (PAD) to conformational changes is presented. The PADs of a series of para-substituted phenolate anions is compared with those calculated using the...

Resonances in polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) anions are key intermediates in a number of processes such as electron transfer in organic electronics and electron attachment in the interstellar medium. Here we present a frequency- and angle-resolved ph...
