Different intramolecular dynamics of HNO 3 at different levels of internal excitation can be used to represent connected logic gates. An ultrafast IR–UV double‐resonance experiment, where the time delay between the two pulses can be operationally set to a positive or negative value, is used to present an equivalent logic circuit and its Boolean structure.
