Conformational Dynamics of Photoexcited Conjugated Molecules

Tretiak, S., Saxena, A., Martin, R. L., Bishop, A. R.·2002·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

Time-dependent photoexcitation and optical spectroscopy of pi-conjugated molecules is described using a new method for the simulation of excited state molecular dynamics in extended molecular systems with sizes up to hundreds of atoms. Applications are made to poly(p-phenylene vinylene) oligomers. Our analysis shows self-trapping of excitations on about six repeat units in the course of photoexcitation relaxation, identifies specific slow (torsion) and fast (bond-stretch) nuclear motions strongly coupled to the electronic degrees of freedom, and predicts spectroscopic signatures of molecular conformations.

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.
