Abstract

AbstractEnergy surfaces are constructed for the ammoniated and hydrated electron within the cavity model, to illustrate the range of validity of the model as it is currently deployed. From the observed excitation energies the cavity in water is guaged to have a radius of 1.22 Å as compared with 2.12 Å in ammonia.Molecular orbital studies upon some dimer models are discussed. It is seen that though the electron may be localised in a cavity in the ground state the charge may be dispersed by excitation.
