Roadmap for Molecular Benchmarks in Nonadiabatic Dynamics

Léon E. Cigrang, Basile F. E. Curchod, Rebecca A. Ingle +42

Simulating the coupled electronic and nuclear response of a molecule to light excitation requires the application of nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. However, when faced with a spe…

Manipulating azobenzene photoisomerization through strong light-molecule coupling

Jacopo Fregoni, Giovanni Granucci, Emanuele Coccia +2

The formation of hybrid light-molecule states (polaritons) offers a new strategy to manipulate the photochemistry of molecules. To fully exploit its potential, one needs to build a…
