Abstract
This paper presents a method that allows a conventional circular dichroism spectrometer to be used in a scanning mode to obtain information about electric dichroic properties. A method is outlined for evaluating the excited state properties of molecules embedded in rigid polymer matrices. A dipole moment change of about 1 D for the carbon disulfide molecule in the 1Σ g + → B 2 transition is verified. Unexpected changes of the dipole moment are found in the benzene 260 nm band system. This is evidence for antisymmetric vibrations involved in this transition. Changes of the polarizability upon excitation are presented for benzene and carbon disulfide.
