"Magnetic field dependent picosecond intersystem crossing. The role of molecular symmetry" P. Gilch, C. Musewald, M.E. Michel-Beyerle
Chem. Phys. Lett. 325,39-45
Abstract: The magnetic field effects on the picosecond photo-dynamics of two different nickel(II) centered tetrapyrroles dissolved in coordinating solvents are compared. These compounds exhibit
fast intersystem crossing processes with multi-exponential kinetics which are altered by external magnetic fields of some teslas. The influence of molecular symmetry on the magnitude of
the field effect is investigated and treated semi-quantitatively using a stochastic Liouville approach. Modelling of the effect allows to estimate the zero-field splitting of very short-lived
triplet states.
