Notes:
This paper reports results of an experiment involving two-laser resonance-enhanced photoionization of benzene. The excitation sources were two frequency-doubled dye lasers. The first laser pumped the molecule to a selected vibronic level of its first excited singlet state (1B2u), from where it was ionized by a time-delayed pulse of the second laser. The ion yield depends on the intermediate vibronic state as well as on the wavelength of the ionizing laser. From the structures and intensities of the measured ion spectra we derived vibrational frequencies and molecular parameters of the ground electronic state of the ion to a remarkable accuracy. The contributions of autoionizing Rydberg levels to the ionization cross section can clearly be distinguished from direct ionization. Several resonance peaks were assigned to transitions to vibrational modes within these Rydberg states.
