Abstract
Time-resolved x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy with pico-second temporal resolution is a new method to observe electronic and geometric structures of short-lived reaction intermediates. It combines an intense femto-second laser source synchronized to the x-ray pulses delivered into the microXAS beamline of the Swiss Light Source (SLS). We present key experiments on charge transfer reactions as well as spin-crossover processes in coordination chemistry compounds next to solvation dynamics studies of photogenerated atomic radicals.
