This thesis presents a comparative study of the ultrafast solvation dynamics of liquids in bulk conditions, and at the interfaces of metal-IV oxides (specifically TiO2 and ZrO2), using ultrafast spectroscopy techniques. In the first part of the thesis we r ...
We propose a new scheme to systematically design optimized connection atoms for arbitrary quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics (QM/MM) boundaries: the pseudopotential of the boundary atom is optimized such that it minimizes the errors in the electronic structu ...
The authors report a femtosecond pump-probe study of photochem. of concd. aq. solns. of [Ru(bpy)3]2+, as a function of pump power (up to 2 TW/cm2) at 400 nm excitation. The transient absorption spectra in the 345-660 nm range up to 1 ns time delay enable t ...
In plane wave based electronic structure calcns. the interaction of core and valence electrons is usually represented by at. effective core potentials. They are constructed in such a way that the shape of the at. valence orbitals outside a certain core rad ...
Ultrafast infrared transient absorption spectroscopy is used to study the photoinduced bimolecular electron transfer reaction between perylene in the first singlet excited state and 1,4-dicyanobenzene in acetonitrile and dichloromethane. Following vibratio ...
In this work time resolved luminescence measurements on the red phase of 3BCMU are presented. These polydiacetylenes form an ordered and isolated one dimensional model system. This work is divided in two parts. First we present an excitation spectrum in ch ...
Non-polar solvation dynamics has been investigated using steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopy of the NO A(2)Sigma(+)(3ssigma) Rydberg state in fluid Ar over a wide range of densities spanning the supercritical regime. Equilibrium molecular dyn ...
The environment is important for the exact course of a chemical reaction. As an example of the strong influence of the environment on the reaction, this work studies the isomerization reaction of the chromophore retinal in the binding pocket of the protein ...
The authors describe two different implementations of time-dependent d. functional theory (TDDFT) for use in excited state mol. dynamics simulations. One is based on the linear response formulation (LR-TDDFT), whereas the other uses a time propagation sche ...
A review. Ultrafast x-ray techniques using diffraction and absorption are discussed with an emphasis on the absorption techniques. Ultrafast x-ray sources and detectors for use in x-ray absorption spectroscopy are also reviewed. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
