Thermal motions in complex liquids: the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid
Alexander Z. Patashinski, Rafal Orlik, Mark A. Ratner
Thermal motions in the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid near solidification are studied at equilibrium and under shear flow conditions. At the temperatures of the study, the liquid is signi…
Conductive grain systems: relaxation under strong electric fields
Alexander Z. Patashinski, Mark A. Ratner
In an external electric field, a system of conductive grains embedded in a dielectric matrix becomes unstable and relaxes towards a conductive state. We describe and discuss the el…
Resonant Energy Transfer Under the Influence of the Evanescent Field from the Metal
Amrit Poudel, Xin Chen, Mark A. Ratner
We present a quantum framework based on a density matrix of a dimer system to investigate the quantum dynamics of excitation energy transfer (EET) in the presence of the evanescent…
Enhancement of Resonant Energy Transfer Due to Evanescent-wave from the Metal
Amrit Poudel, Xin Chen, Mark A. Ratner
The high density of evanescent modes in the vicinity of a metal leads to enhancement of the near-field Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET) rate. We present a classical approach…
A direct basis approach to nonorthogonality in second quantization. Theory and application
Zixuan Hu, Mark A. Ratner, Tamar Seideman
We present a direct basis formalism for using nonorthogonal basis sets in the second quantization framework. As an alternative to the dual basis formalism, a direct basis retains t…
On optical spectroscopy of molecular junctions
Michael Galperin, Mark A. Ratner, Abraham Nitzan
We compare theoretical techniques utilized for description of optical response in molecular junctions, and their application to simulate Raman spectroscopy in such systems. Strong…
