Laser Temperature-Jump Apparatus for Relaxation Studies in Electrolytic Solutions

Abstract
Temperature‐jump apparatus for relaxation studies in electrolytic solutions has been developed with laser heating and conductivity readout. The apparatus is suitable for quantitative studies of relaxation times in the range 10−1 to 3×10−6 sec. With a ruby laser, an appropriate solute must be added to aqueous solutions lacking a colored solute to adjust the optical density of the solution to an appropriate value. With a neodymium laser, the intrinsic absorption of water in aqueous solutions is adequate.
