Dielectric friction and the transition from adiabatic to nonadiabatic electron transfer. I. Solvation dynamics in Liouville space

Sparpaglione, Massimo, Mukamel, Shaul·1988·The Journal of Chemical Physics

Abstract

A microscopic theory for electron transfer rates in a polar medium, which interpolates continuously from the adiabatic to the nonadiabatic limits, is developed. Both static (polarity) interactions, which affect the reaction energetics and dynamic (friction) effects, are incorporated using a macroscopic solvation coordinate, whose dynamics and statistical properties are related to the entire frequency and wave vector dependent dielectric function of the solvent ε(k,ω). The present approach is based on using an expansion of the density matrix in Liouville space and utilizing the analogy with the calculation of nonlinear optical line shapes. A new criterion for adiabaticity is derived, and the role of the solvent longitudinal dielectric relaxation in inducing the crossover from the nonadiabatic to the adiabatic regimes is clarified. The applicability of a Landau–Zener-type resumation for the rate is critically analyzed. The origin of the fractional power dependence of the rate on the solvent time scale, observed in several electron transfer and isomerization reactions, is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
