Light-driven reactions constitute an important class of processes in physics, chemistry, and biology. The development of accurate and efficient computational tools for the study of excited states dynamics has thus become of primary importance. Recently, we ...
Due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, various classical systems differing only on the scale smaller than Planck's cell correspond to the same quantum system. We use this fact to find a unique semiclassical representation without the Van Vleck determ ...
We explore three specific approaches for speeding up the calculation of quantum time correlation functions needed for time-resolved electronic spectra. The first relies on finding a minimum set of sufficiently accurate electronic surfaces. The second incre ...
The non-relativistic quantum dynamics of nuclei and electrons is solved within the framework of quantum hydrodynamics using the adiabatic representation of the electronic states. An on-the-fly trajectory-based nonadiabatic molecular dynamics algorithm is d ...
We present a fully Hamiltonian and computationally efficient scheme to include the electrostatic effects due to the classical environment in a Car-Parrinello mixed quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics (QM/MM) method. The polarization due to the MM atoms close ...
Ab initio methods for the electronic structure of molecules have reached a satisfactory accuracy for calculations of static properties but remain too expensive for quantum dynamics calculations. We propose an efficient semiclassical method for evaluating t ...
Dephasing representation of fidelity, also known as the phase averaging method, can be considered as a special case of Miller's linearized semiclassical initial value representation and belongs among the most efficient approximate semiclassical approaches ...
A general semiclassical expression for quantum fidelity (Loschmidt echo) of arbitrary pure and mixed states is derived. It expresses fidelity as an interference sum of dephasing trajectories weighed by the Wigner function of the initial state, and does not ...
A method is developed to compute the nonadiabatic coupling vectors (NACVs) between electronic ground and excited states as well as between any possible pair of excited states within the framework of linear response time-dependent density functional theory ...
The authors present a hybrid Car-Parrinello quantum mech./mol. mech. (QM/MM) approach that is capable of treating the dynamics of mol. systems in electronically excited states in complex environments. The potential energy surface in the excited state is de ...
