Enhancement of photodesorption by vibrational excitation — •Tijo Vazhappilly1, Stephanie Beyvers1, Tillmann Klamroth1, Rigoberto Hernandez2, and Peter Saalfrank11Institut für Chemie, Universität Potsdam, D-14476 Potsdam, Germany — 2School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Georgia Institute of Technology,Atlanta, GA 30332-0400

The effect of selective excitation of adsorbate vibrations by tailored IR laser pulses, on the photodesorption of H2 and D2 from a Ru(0001) surface has been investigated theoretically. A two-dimensional model is used for the Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions (DIET) limit. A jumping wavepacket algorithm is employed with different initial states, starting from ground vibrational state to vibrationally excited states and vibrational wavepackets[1]. This model is extended to Desorption Induced by Multiple Electronic Transitions (DIMET) by incorporating electronic temperatures from femtosecond UV/vis laser excitation of metal electrons. In this regime, the IR+UV/vis strategy to control the photodesorption is realized by the Monte Carlo Wave Packet (MCWP) method [2], and Molecular Dynamics (MD) with electronic friction. Vibrational preexcitation appears to be successful in both DIET and DIMET.
