Intramolecular nuclear dynamics in intermolecular Coulombic electron capture

Elena M. Jahr, Elke Fasshauer

We present an analytical model for intermolecular Coulombic electron capture (ICEC) which includes the internal nuclear dynamics of the molecules involved. In ICEC, an electron attaches to an atom or molecule by transferring excess energy to a neighbor, ionizing said neighbor. While previous theoretical investigations assumed fixed nuclei, recent studies indicate that relative motion between the two ICEC partners significantly influences the process. Here, we incorporate the internal nuclear motion of the molecules involved into an analytical equation of the ICEC cross section. We employ two approaches: 1. utilizing theoretical vibrationally resolved photoionization cross sections and 2. applying the Franck-Condon principle. Our theory yields electron spectra, ICEC cross sections for individual vibronic transitions, and temperature dependent cross sections. Nuclear dynamics lead to a distribution of the electronic cross section over several vibrational states and, in our model system H+ LiH, triggers dissociation of LiH during ICEC.

Study of the nonlinear optical responses in the Four-wave mixing signal in saturation regimen of a two-level system with intramolecular coupling

José Luis Paz, Eleana Ruiz-Hinojosa, Ysaías J. Alvarado +5 more

We consider the Four-Wave mixing (FWM) signal and the effects of the pump beam on the nonlinear optical responses of a two-level system where intramolecular coupling is modelled by two coupled harmonic electronic potentials, displaced both in their equilibrium minimum position and energy. We investigate the modifications introduced in the FWM signal, considering a simple representation for the vibrational structure and including molecular electronic states with nonzero permanent dipole moments. The critical quantities for this analysis are the transition and permanent dipole moments, which depend strongly on the intramolecular coupling. Our results show how both absorption and dispersion are affected by the vibronic coupling.

Designing of Persistent Hole-burning Materials: Spectral Widths and Electronic Structures in Proton Transfer Molecular Systems

Toshiro Tani

Persistent spectral hole burning (PSHB) has attracted much attention due not only to its usefulness in site-selective spectroscopy but also to its applicability to wavelength multiplexed optical memory in the future.1) Though the application is still far from realization, potentially 103 times higher storage density would be attainable. Technological breakthrough is largely concerned with the issue of optimizing the storage materials. For the formation of persistent holes, the existence of both photoreactive centers and a solid matrix is essential, hence the comprehension of intramolecular and intermolecular electron-phonon interaction is of great importance. We have already proposed one working hypothesis, which, derived mainly from the experiments related to the intermolecular interactions, emphasizes the possibility of controlling the mesoscopic structure of the materials.2-4)
