Monitoring the effect of ultrafast deactivation of the electronic excited states of DNA bases and polynucleotides following 267 nm laser excitation using picosecond time-resolved infrared spectroscopy

Abstract

In this paper we demonstrate the use of picosecond time-resolved infrared spectroscopy (ps-TRIR) to monitor the early structural dynamics of DNA bases and polydeoxynucleotides following UV excitation in solution.
