Oxidation of trivalent americium in nitric acid induced by multiphoton excitation via an f-f transition

We have recently realized the oxidation of trivalent americium (Am$$^{III}$$) in nitric acid by multiphoton excitation via an f-f transition. In this study, an effect of nitrate ion (NO$$_{3}$$$$^{-}$$) on the Am$$^{III}$$ photooxidation have been investigated. Our results of NO$$_{3}$$$$^{-}$$ activity dependence of the Am$$^{III}$$ photooxidation and density functional theory calculation indicate that the complex of Am$$^{III}$$ with NO$$_{3}$$$$^{-}$$, in particular one-nitrate complex, contributes to it.
