How to Find Molecules with Long-lasting Charge Migration?

Jiri Vanicek, Alan Scheidegger, Nikolay Golubev

Under certain conditions, the ionization of a molecule may create a superposition of electronic states, leading to ultrafast electron dynamics. If controlled, this motion could be used in attochemistry applications, but it has been shown that the decoheren ...
