title: Persistent infrared hole-burning spectroscopy of matrix-isolated CN(-) molecules.
abstract: The union of persistent IR hole burning and Fourier-transform IR techniques is used to identify a new type of photophysical vibrational hole-burning center. The persistent signature for matrix-isolated CN(-) complexes in alkali-halide crystals is similar to that found for photochemical hole burning in solids.
