Abstract

Vibrational resolved constant-ionic-state spectroscopy is used to study photoionization of N₂O We determine the ratio of partial photoionization cross sections for alternative vibrational levels of the N₂O⁺ (A ²σ+) state and these vibrational branching ratios are dependent on excitation energy, implying that there is a breakdown of the Franck-Condon approximation. These results may be sampling the wings of a shape resonance.
