Abstract

The initial (?200 nsec) spectra of the trapped electron are similar in C2H5OH, C2H5OD, C2D5OH, and C2D5OD glasses at 76 K with λmax ∼1300 nm. The kinetics of the spectral shifts to the stable values of λmax near 540 nm are similar for C2H5OH and C2H5OD and resemble the kinetics of a series of first order processes or of tunneling reactions. Structure seems to be present in the partially relaxed spectra and may result from specific geoemetrical orientations of first solvation shell molecules.
