Relaxation of Electronic Angular Momentum in Kramers Systems with Strong Spin-Orbit Coupling. 1. Atomic Radicals in Solution*

Abstract: A theoretical treatment of electron angular momentum relaxation in atoms induced by electric field fluctuations in a liquid solvent cage is presented. It is shown that in the case of weak interaction between solvent shell and a "target" atom the rate of transitions between the components of a Kramers doublet decreases sharply with the increase of adiabatic splitting between the terms of atomic fine-structure. An analytical expression for the rate of solvent induced angular momentum relaxation in the ground sta… Show more
