Non-Born-Oppenheimer wavepacket dynamics in polyatomic molecules: vibrations at conical intersections in DABCO.
The role of vibrational dynamics in the vicinity of conical intersections is investigated using the first two electronically excited states of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane (DABCO) by combining time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy with ab initio computation. Upon resonant excitation of the origin band of the short-lived S2 (1E') state, oscillations in the electronic population between the S...
متن کاملThe Born-Oppenheimer Approximation
where R is the set of nuclear coordinates and r is the set of electronic coordinates. If spin-orbit effects are important, they can be added through a spin-orbit operator Ĥso. Unfortunately, the V̂eN(r,R) term prevents us from separating Ĥ into nuclear and electronic parts, which would allow us to write the molecular wavefunction as a product of nuclear and electronic terms, Ψ(r,R) = Ψ(r)χ(R). W...
متن کاملIs the breakdown of the born-oppenheimer approximation responsible for internal conversion in large molecules?
Vibronic radiationless transitions in large polyatomic molecules can be thought of as a process whereby the molecule, initially prepared in a discrete quasistationary state, makes a transition to an adjoining vibronic continuum belonging to a lower electronic state of the same multiplicity. In many instances the transition is analogous to penetration through a barrier between two "nested" poten...
متن کاملNon-Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics.
Electronically nonadiabatic or non-Born-Oppenheimer (non-BO) chemical processes (photodissociation, charge-transfer, etc.) involve a nonradiative change in the electronic state of the system. Molecular dynamics simulations typically treat nuclei as moving classically on a single adiabatic potential energy surface, and these techniques are not immediately generalizable to non-BO systems due to t...
متن کاملNorth - Holland BORN - OPPENHEIMER REVISITED
The Born-Oppenheimer approximation [1] can be used whenever the hamilto..ian of a fast system depends on the coordinates of a slow system . In some textbooks, the problem is solved by freezing the coordinates of the slow system and solving the hamiltonian of the fast system; then the energy of the fast system enters the effective hamiltonian for the slow system as a potential energy term. This ...
