About this document
Intersystem Crossing in Negative Ions by Daniel Machado is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The article discusses the phenomenon of doublet-quartet intersystem crossing in negative molecular ions, particularly focusing on the abnormally long lifetimes of these ions. It presents a new hypothesis explaining this behavior through the transformation of doublet ions into quartet ions, which results in delayed electron autodetachment. The study utilizes computational methods to analyze potential energy surfaces and confirms the proposed concept through calculations for specific molecular ions.
