The nonperturbative approach is based on explicit electron dynamics using short laser pulses of low intensities. To include environmental effects on the property calculation, we use the time- dependent configuration-interaction method in its reduced density matrix formulation. Both energy dissipation and nonlocal pure dephasing are included. The explicit treatment of time-resolved electron dynamics gives access to the phase shift between the electric field and the induced dipole moment, which can be used to define a useful uncertainty measure for the dynamic polarizability. The nonperturbative treatment is compared to perturbation theory expressions, as applied to a simple model system, the rigid H-2 molecule. It is shown that both approaches are equivalent for low field intensities, but the time-dependent treatment provides complementary information on the phase of the induced dipole moment, which allows for the definition of an uncertainty associated with the computation of the dynamic polarizability in the linear response regime.}, language = {en} } @article{SchwarzeDoscheFlehretal.2010, author = {Schwarze, Thomas and Dosche, Carsten and Flehr, Roman and Klamroth, Tillmann and L{\"o}hmannsr{\"o}ben, Hans-Gerd and Saalfrank, Peter and Cleve, Ernst and Buschmann, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Combination of a CT modulated PET and an intramolecular excimer formation to quantify PdCl2 by large fluorescence enhancement}, issn = {1359-7345}, doi = {10.1039/B919973j}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The [6.6](9,10)anthracenophane 1 (Scheme 1) is a selective fluoroionophore for the detection of PdCl2 with a large fluorescence enhancement factor (I/I-0 > 250).}, language = {en} } @article{SchwarzeDoscheFlehretal.2010, author = {Schwarze, Thomas and Dosche, Carsten and Flehr, Roman and Klamroth, Tillmann and L{\"o}hmannsr{\"o}ben, Hans-Gerd and Saalfrank, Peter and Cleve, Ernst and Buschmann, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Combination of a CT modulated PET and an intramolecular excimer formation to quantify PdCl2 by large fluorescence enhancement}, issn = {1359-7345}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{FuechselKlamrothTremblayetal.2010, author = {F{\"u}chsel, Gernot and Klamroth, Tillmann and Tremblay, Jean Christophe and Saalfrank, Peter}, title = {Stochastic approach to laser-induced ultrafast dynamics : the desorption of H-2/D-2 from Ru(0001)}, issn = {1463-9076}, doi = {10.1039/C0cp00895h}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The desorption of molecular hydrogen and deuterium induced by femtosecond-laser pulses is studied theoretically for the so-called DIMET (Desorption Induced by Multiple Electronic Transitions) process. These investigations are based on nonadiabatic classical Monte Carlo trajectory (CMCT) simulations on a ground and an excited state potential energy surface, including up to all six adsorbate degrees of freedom. The focus is on the hot-electron mediated energy transfer from the surface to the molecule and back, and the energy partitioning between the different degrees of freedom of the desorbing molecules. We first validate for a two-mode model comprising the desorption mode and the internal vibrational coordinate, the classical Monte Carlo trajectory method by comparing with Monte Carlo wavepacket (MCWP) calculations arising from a fully quantum mechanical open-system density matrix treatment. We then proceed by extending the CMCT calculations to include all six nuclear degrees of freedom of the desorbing molecule. This allows for a detailed comparison between theory and experiment concerning isotope effects, energy partitioning (translational, vibrational, and rotational energies and their distributions), and the dependence of these properties on the laser fluence. The most important findings are as follows. (i) CMCT agrees qualitative with the MCWP scheme. (ii) The basic experimental features such as the large isotope effect, the non-linear increase of yield with laser fluence, translationally hot products (in the order of several 1000 K) and non-equipartitioning of translational and internal energies (E-trans > E- vib > E-rot) are well reproduced. (iii) Predictions concerning a strong angular dependence of translational energies at large observation angles are also made.}, language = {en} }
