Transient absorption changes of pSRII after excitation with 480-nm
(multichannel detection, a–c) and 530-nm
pulses (single-channel detection, c Inset and
d) displaying the femtosecond and picosecond reaction
dynamics. The solid lines represent the results from a multiexponential
global fitting procedure with time constants of τ1
< 150 fs, τ2 = 300–400 fs, τ3 =
5 ps, and τ4 = ∞. Note the linear time scale for
delay times < 1 ps and the logarithmic scale at later delay
times.
