Nonadiabatic Quantum Dynamics of Hexatriene via the Extended Hubbard-Peierls Model and Time-Dependent DMRG

Timothy N. Georges, Darren J. Valentine, William Barford

Propagating the electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom of a molecule simultaneously is a challenging task, because the number of vibronic states grows exponentially with system…

Triplet-Pair Character of the Dark State of Polyenes

Alexandru G. Ichert, William Barford

We define and calculate the triplet-pair population of the dark state in polyenes, as predicted by the -electron Pariser-Parr-Pople (PPP) model, for chains of 8 to 14 C…

Temperature Dependence of Charge and Exciton Transport in One-Dimensional Systems Subject to Static and Dynamic Disorder

William Barford

The temperature-dependence of dynamical properties (e.g., the asymptotic diffusion coefficient and the sub-diffusive exponent) are calculated for charges and excitons in one-dimens…

A Vibronic Coupling Model to Study the Nonadiabatic Dynamics of Polyenes

Timothy N. Georges, Louis Summerley, Johan E. Runeson +1

We develop a linear vibronic coupling (LVC) model for polyenes described by the extended Hubbard-Peierls Hamiltonian. This model is applied to trans-hexatriene to benchmark quantum…

Singlet Fission in Carotenoid Dimers -- The Role of the Exchange and Dipolar Interactions

Alexandru G. Ichert, William Barford

A theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers is presented which aims to explain the mechanism behind the creation of two uncorrelated triplets. Following the initial photoexcit…

Using the Haken-Strobl-Reineker Model to Determine the Temperature Dependence of the Diffusion Coefficient

William Barford

Stochastic quantum Liouville equations (SQLE) are widely used to model energy and charge dynamics in molecular systems. The Haken-Strobl-Reineker (HSR) SQLE is a particular paradig…
