Complex Energy Surface
Caption:
When light strikes an organometallic complex an electron can be excited into a higher energy state. In this particular complex a molecule of carbon monoxide leaves the organometallic complex because of this excitation.
This work was supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Chemistry.
