Abstract
The temperature dependent photoacoustic signal of a carbon black sample is investigated with a previously described low temperature photoacoustic cell. Examples are given to demonstrate the utility of variable temperature photoacoustic spectroscopy: The photocycle of bacteriorhodopsin which is contained in the purple membrane fragments of halobacterium halobium is studied. In this experiment some photointermediates are shown to be preferentially populated and frozen out at low temperatures. The temperature dependence of the electronic ground state of solid Fe-(III)-diethyl-dithiocarbamate is investigated for the first time spectroscopically in the visible and ultraviolet spectral range. Excitonic levels in semiconductors are for the first time inspected by the photoacoustic technique.
