The absorption spectrum of CO$_2$ in the wavelength range 120\,nm --- 160\,nm is analyzed by means of quantum mechanical calculations performed using vibronically coupled PESs of five singlet valence electronic states and the coordinate…
We derive an electron-vibration model Hamiltonian in a quantum chemical framework, and explore the extent to which such a Hamiltonian can capture key effects of nonadiabatic dynamics. The model Hamiltonian is a simple two-body operator, and…
The initial energy transfer in photosynthesis occurs between the light-harvesting pigments and on ultrafast timescales. We analyze the carotenoid to bacteriochlorophyll energy transfer in LH2 Marichromatium purpuratum as well as in an…
When a chromophore interacts with titrable molecular sites, the modeling of its photophysical properties requires to take into account all their possible protonation states. We have developed a multi-scale protocol, based on constant-pH…
We theoretically study the optical absorption property of twisted bilayer graphenes with various stacking geometries, and demonstrate that the spectroscopic characteristics serve as a fingerprint to identify the rotation angle between two…
In the construction of diabatic vibronic Hamiltonians for quantum dynamics in the excited-state manifold of molecules, the coupling constants are often extracted solely from information on the excited-state energies. Here, a new protocol is…
Molecular hydrogen normally has only weak, quadrupole transitions between its rovibrational states, but in a static electric field it acquires a dipole moment and a set of allowed transitions. Here we use published ab initio calculations of…
A new synchrotron study for CH$_2$F$_2$ from has been combined with earlier data. The onset of absorption, band I and also band IV, is resolved into broad vibrational peaks, which contrast with the continuous absorption previously claimed.…
The recently suggested possibility that weak vibronic transitions can be excitonically enhanced in light-harvesting complexes is studied in detail. A vibronic exciton dimer model which includes ground state vibrations is investigated using…
We present an extension of the Hamiltonian of the two dimensional limit of the vibron model encompassing all possible interactions up to four-body operators. We apply this Hamiltonian to the modeling of the experimental bending spectrum of…
Diketopyrrolopyrroles are a popular class of electron-withdrawing unit in optoelectronic materials. When combined with electron donating side-chain functional groups such as thiophenes, they form a very broad class of donor-acceptor…
We develop the theory of dynamical superradiance -- the collective exchange of energy between an ensemble of initially excited emitters and a single-mode cavity -- for organic materials where electronic states are coupled to vibrational…
We consider a fully quadratic vibronic model Hamiltonian for studying photoinduced electronic transitions through conical intersections. Using a second order perturbative approximation for diabatic couplings we derive an analytical…
Pump-probe photoionization has been used to map the relaxation processes taking place from highly vibrationally excited levels of the S2 state of azulene, populated directly or via internal conversion from the S4 state. Photoelectron…
A general theory of electronic excitations in aggregates of molecules coupled to intramolecular vibrations and the harmonic environment is developed for simulation of the third-order nonlinear spectroscopy signals. The model is applied in…
Singlet fission, the molecular process through which photons are effectively converted into pairs of lower energy triplet excitons, holds promise as a means of boosting photovoltaic device efficiencies. In the preceding article of this…
Infrared spectroscopy (IR) and quantum chemistry calculations that are based on the density functional theory (DFT) have been used to study the structure, molecular interactions of the nematic and twist-bend phases for thioether-linked…
The multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree method is employed to study vibrationally coupled charge transport in models of single molecule junctions. To increase the efficiency of the simulation method, a representation of the…
The UV photochemistry of small heteroaromatic molecules serves as a testbed for understanding fundamental photoinduced transformations in moderately complex compounds, including isomerization, ring-opening, and molecular dissociation. Here,…
Assuming a delta pulse excitation, quantum wavepackets are propagated on the excited state manifold in the energy range from 3.4-5.0 eV for coronene and 2.4-3.5 eV for circumcoronene to study the time evolution of the states as well as…
