The Keldysh Formalism Applied to Time-dependent Current-density- Functional Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
In this work we demonstrate how to derive the Kohn-Sham equations of time-dependent current-density functional theory from a generating action functional defined on a Keldysh time contour. These Kohn-Sham equations contain an exchange-correlation contribution to the vector potential. For this quantity we derive an integral equation. We further derive an integral equation for its functional derivative, the exchangecorrelation kernel, which plays an essential role in response theory. The exchange-only limits of the latter equation is studied in detail for the electron gas and future applications are discussed.

Quantum Transport and Current-triggered Dynamics in Molecular Tunnel Junctions
The modelling of nanoelectronic systems has been the topic of ever increasing activity for nearly two decades. Yet, new questions, challenges and opportunities continue to emerge. In this article we review theoretical and numerical work on two new developments in the theory of molecular-scale electronics. First we review a density functional theory analysis within the Keldysh non-equilibrium Gr...
متن کاملPhotosensitizing properties for porphyrazine and some derivatives
We have investigated photosensitizing properties for porphrazine and eleven of its related derivatives based on time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The modles have been divided into two categories based on the existence of CN functional group in one category but not in the other one. The other functional groups include H, CH3, F, CF3, C6H5, and C6F5 counterparts. The...

The complexes between C20 and C2 X4 , C2 X2 (X = H, F, Cl, Br) have been studied theoretically at the B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) level. The calculations include the optimized geometries, the interaction energies, aromaticity and thermodynamic. The interaction energies ranging from -60 to -101 kcal/mol and being ordered as: X = F> Cl > Br. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis has been performed on all ge...
متن کاملAttosecond dynamical Franz-Keldysh effect in polycrystalline diamond.
Short, intense laser pulses can be used to access the transition regime between classical and quantum optical responses in dielectrics. In this regime, the relative roles of inter- and intraband light-driven electronic transitions remain uncertain. We applied attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy to investigate the interaction between polycrystalline diamond and a few-femtosecond infrare...

Experimental and theoretical absorption spectra of [2-[2-[4-(dimethylamino) phenyl]ethenyl]-6-methyl-4H- pyran-4-ylidene]-propanedinitrile (DCM) have been studied. UV-Visible (UV-Vis.) absorption spectrum of DCM has been reported after its synthesis. Two relatively intense peaks appeared at 473 and 362 nm respectively. A theoretical investigation on the electronic structure of DCM is presented ...
