The simulation find that the CNN bond angle bending vibrations also play a significant role in the vibronic coupling between the HOMO and LUMO, which essentially leads a nonadiabatic transition of the molecule to the electronic ground state.展开更多

This simulation investigation is focused on the effect of the formation of bonded excimer in stacked adenines on the mechanism of ultrafast decay. The simulation finds that the formation of the bond- ed excimer significantly lowers the energy gap between the LUMO and HOMO and consequently facilitates the deactivation of the electronically excited molecule. On the other hand, the formation of the chemical bond between two stacked adenines re- stricts the deformation vibration of the pyrimidine of the excited molecule due to the steric effect. This slows down the formation of the coupling between the HOMO and LUMO energy levels and therefore delays the deactivation process of the excited adenine molecule to the electronic ground state.展开更多
