Ultrafast dynamics in the metal-to-ligand charge transfer excited-state evolution of [Ru(4,4'-diphenyl-2,2'-bipyridine) (sub)3] (super)2+

A study of the transition metal complexes has been conducted by means of the femtosecond visible electronic absorption spectroscopy. Results include identification of the optical marker for the thermalized excited state as a unique absorptive feature.
