Description

The yield and reaction kinetics of trapped electrons, esub(ir)sup(-) and esub(vis)sup(-), in several ethylene glycol/D2O glasses have been studied from 6-72 K by pulse radiolysis. An increased D2O concentration is believed to increase the concentration of IR-traps thereby leading to a greater G(esub(ir)sup(-)) and to decrease the concentration of VIS-traps thereby increasing the stability of esub(ir)sup(-). The yield and stability of esub(ir)sup(-) are also increased by lowering the temperature. A redetermination of epsilon(esub(ir)sup(-)) (1.3 x 104 M-1 cm-1 at 1800 nm) confirms earlier values
