Abstract

The kinetics of photo-induced charge separation resulting from reversible outer-sphere electron transfer processes in symmetrical one-dimensional dimeric systems, such as bianthryl, perturbed by an external electric field, in liquid solutions are investigated. The theoretical approach is based on Zusman-type kinetic equations, and applies to adiabatic electron transfer processes. Model calculations demonstrating the response of the steady state decay of the three-surface system to the external electric field perturbation as a function of the dielectric relaxation rate of the solvent, reorganization energy and the free energy are presented.
