Photoinduced Molecular Dynamics in Solution by Gianluca Levi Pdf

This book explores novel computational strategies for simulating excess energy dissipation alongside transient structural changes in photoexcited molecules, and accompanying solvent rearrangements. It also demonstrates in detail the synergy between theoretical modelling and ultrafast experiments in unravelling various aspects of the reaction dynamics of solvated photocatalytic metal complexes. Transition metal complexes play an important role as photocatalysts in solar energy conversion, and the rational design of metal-based photocatalytic systems with improved efficiency hinges on the fundamental understanding of the mechanisms behind light-induced chemical reactions in solution. Theory and atomistic modelling hold the key to uncovering these ultrafast processes. Linking atomistic simulations and modern X-ray scattering experiments with femtosecond time resolution, the book highlights previously unexplored dynamical changes in molecules, and discusses the development of theoretical and computational frameworks capable of interpreting the underlying ultrafast phenomena.

Quantum Dynamics of Complex Molecular Systems by David A. Micha,Irene Burghardt Pdf

Quantum phenomena are ubiquitous in complex molecular systems - as revealed by many experimental observations based upon ultrafast spectroscopic techniques - and yet remain a challenge for theoretical analysis. The present volume, based on a May 2005 workshop, examines and reviews the state-of-the-art in the development of new theoretical and computational methods to interpret the observed phenomena. Emphasis is on complex molecular processes involving surfaces, clusters, solute-solvent systems, materials, and biological systems. The research summarized in this book shows that much can be done to explain phenomena in systems excited by light or through atomic interactions. It demonstrates how to tackle the multidimensional dynamics arising from the atomic structure of a complex system, and addresses phenomena in condensed phases as well as phenomena at surfaces. The chapters on new methodological developments cover both phenomena in isolated systems, and phenomena which involve the statistical effects of an environment, such as fluctuations and dissipation. The methodology part explores new rigorous ways to formulate mixed quantum-classical dynamics in many dimensions, along with new ways to solve a many-atom Schroedinger equation, or the Liouville-von Neumann equation for the density operator, using trajectories and ideas related to hydrodynamics. Part I treats applications to complex molecular systems, and Part II covers new theoretical and computational methods

Coherent dynamics of small molecules in rare gas crystals by Anonim Pdf

The book presents a systematic study of coherent phenomena in molecule doped rare gas crystals, examplified on bromine and iodine molecules in solid argon and krypton. Ultrashort laser pulses are applied to prepare vibrational wave packets on the molecules. Their dynamics is investigated via the pump-probe method. The priniples of classical and quantum mechanical coherence are introduced in the first chapters together with the concepts of wave packet focusing and fractional revivals. Those are used to deduce the vibrational and electronic decoherence of molecular wave packets in the rare gas host. A novel coherent control scheme based on chirped laser pulse excitation is worked out to manipulate the wave packets. Furthermore, the molecular energy relaxation and the rotational behaviour in the rare gas host are discussed. Apart from the molecular wave packets, coherent phonons of the rare gas crystal are investigated via the pump-probe spectroscopy on the molecule. Those phonons are excited impulsively in a molecular electronic transition and modulate the host density close to the molecule. Due to the special probe situation, only coherent zone boundary phonons show up in the transients.

Femtochemistry and Femtobiology by Abderrazzak Douhal,Jesus Santamaria Pdf

This book contains important contributions from top international scientists on the-state-of-the-art of femtochemistry and femtobiology at the beginning of the new millennium. It consists of reviews and papers on ultrafast dynamics in molecular science.The coverage of topics highlights several important features of molecular science from the viewpoint of structure (space domain) and dynamics (time domain). First of all, the book presents the latest developments, such as experimental techniques for understanding ultrafast processes in gas, condensed and complex systems, including biological molecules, surfaces and nanostructures. At the same time it stresses the different ways to control the rates and pathways of reactive events in chemistry and biology. Particular emphasis is given to biological processes as an area where femtodynamics is becoming very useful for resolving the structural dynamics from techniques such as electron diffraction, and X-ray and IR spectroscopy. Finally, the latest developments in quantum control (in both theory and experiment) and the experimental pulse-shaping techniques are described.
