It is found that the intensity of the HHG increases significantly from a certain harmonic order below the ionization threshold, and the initial position of the enhancement does not depend on the intensity or the wavelength of the driving laser field. Further analysis shows that excited states play an important role on this enhancement,consistent with the excited-state tunneling mechanism [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116 123901(2016)]. Our results unambiguously show that excited-state tunneling is essential for understanding the enhancement of HHG. Accordingly, a four-step model is herein proposed to illustrate the multiphoton excitation effect in helium-like ions, which enriches the physics of HHG enhancement.展开更多

However, with the advent of computational chemistry methods such as TD-DFT, many useful insights about the electronic excitation energy and excited-state nature of biomolecules can be explored. Accordingly, in our study, we have incorporated the TD-DFT/wB97XD/cc-pVTZ method to study the excited state properties of N-acetyl phenylalanine amide (NAPA-A(H<sub>2</sub>O) <sub>n</sub>) (n = 1 to 4) clusters from ground to the tenth lowest gaseous singlet excited state. We found that the C=O bond length gradually increases both in N-terminal amide and C-terminal amide after the sequential addition of water molecules because of intermolecular H-bonding and this intermolecular H-bonding becomes weaker after the sequential addition of H<sub>2</sub>O molecules. The UV absorption maxima of NAPA-A (H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>n</sub> (n = 1 - 4) clusters consisted of two peaks that are S<sub>5</sub>←S<sub>0</sub> (1<sup>st</sup> absorption) and S<sub>6</sub>←S<sub>0</sub> (2<sup>nd</sup> absorption) excitations. The first absorption maxima were blue-shifted with the increase in oscillator strength. This means that strong H-bonds reduce the charge transfer and make clusters more rigid. On the other hand, the second absorption maxima were red-shifted with the decrease in oscillator strength. In the ECD spectra, the negative bands indicate the presence of an amide bond and L-configuration of micro hydrated NAPA-A clusters. Finally, our calculated absorption and fluorescence energy confirm that all the NAPA-A (H<sub>2</sub>O) <sub>n</sub> (n = 0 - 4) clusters revert to the ground state from the fluorescent state by emitting around 5.490 eV of light.展开更多

A detailed analysis for one of the trajectories is made, and finally we present the space and energy distribution of 2000 Bohmian particles at several typical instants and analyze their dynamical process at these moments.展开更多

The structure and uncommon photoluminescence of Sr2CeO4∶Eu3+ phosphors were investigated in detail by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum, and photoluminescence spectrum, respectively. The XRD results demonstrate that the as-prepared Sr2CeO4 phosphor is single phase and well crystallized. For Sr2CeO4∶Eu3+ phosphor, its excitation spectrum consists of a broad intense band from host and Eu3+-O2-charge transfer and a number of small peaks from Eu3+ ion. The broad emission band originated from Sr2CeO4 host and Eu3+ emission lines in the blue, green, and red regions coexist. Not only the characteristic transition lines from the lowest excited 5D0 level of Eu3+ but also those from higher energy levels 5DJ (J=1, 2) of Eu3+ ions are observed. These unusual luminescence properties result from the low vibration energy of Sr2CeO4 host-lattice and different energy transfer process from host to activator.展开更多

The nonsymmetrical transition from RSA to SA is ascribed neither to saturation of excited state absorption nor to thermal induced mass transport, the so-called Sorer effect. In our consideration, strong nonlinear absorption causes the rapid accumulation of the non-uniform kinetic energy of the solute molecules. The non-uniform kinetic field in turn causes the migration of the solute molecules. Additionally, an energy-gradient-induced mass transport theory is presented to interpret the experimental results, and the theoretical calculations are also taken to fit our experimental results.展开更多

The geometric structures of the S0 and S1 states are denoted as the Enol, Enol*, and Keto*. In addition, the absorption and fluorescence peaks are also calculated. It is noted that the calculated large Stokes shift is in good agreement with the experimental result. Furthermore, our results confirm that the ESIPT process happens upon photoexcitation, which is distinctly monitored by the formation and disappearance of the characteristic peaks of infrared(IR) spectra involved in the proton transfer and in the potential energy curves. Besides, the calculations of highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) reveal that the electronegativity change of proton acceptor due to the intramolecular charge redistribution in the S1 state induces the ESIPT. Moreover, the thermodynamic calculation for the MNF shows that the Enol*/Keto*emission ratio decreasing with temperature increasing arises from the barrier lowering of ESIPT.展开更多

The calculated results indicate that both the reagent rotational angular momentum and the mass factor have a significant influence on the scalar properties and vector correlations of the title reactions.
文摘The excited-state double-proton transfer (ESDPT) mechanism of 2-amino-3-methoxypyridine and acetic acid com- plex is studied by the density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT with CAM-B3LYP functional. The complex is connected through two different types of inter-molecular hydrogen bonds. After photo-excitation, both hydrogen bonds get strengthened, which can facilitate the ESDPT reaction. The scanned potential energy curve along the proton transfer coordinate indicates that the ESDPT reaction proceeds in a stepwise pattern.

文摘The convergent iterative procedure for solving the groundstate Schrodinger equation is extended to derive the excitation energy and the wavefunction of the low-lying excited states. The method is applied to the one-dimensional quartic potential problem. The results show that the iterative solution converges rapidly when the coupling g is not too small.

文摘Undoped and Eu3+-doped Sr2CeO4 luminescent materials were prepared by sol-gel method. The structure and uncommon photoluminescence of Sr2CeO4∶Eu3+ phosphors were investigated in detail by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum, and photoluminescence spectrum, respectively. The XRD results demonstrate that the as-prepared Sr2CeO4 phosphor is single phase and well crystallized. For Sr2CeO4∶Eu3+ phosphor, its excitation spectrum consists of a broad intense band from host and Eu3+-O2-charge transfer and a number of small peaks from Eu3+ ion. The broad emission band originated from Sr2CeO4 host and Eu3+ emission lines in the blue, green, and red regions coexist. Not only the characteristic transition lines from the lowest excited 5D0 level of Eu3+ but also those from higher energy levels 5DJ (J=1, 2) of Eu3+ ions are observed. These unusual luminescence properties result from the low vibration energy of Sr2CeO4 host-lattice and different energy transfer process from host to activator.

文摘Nonsymmetrical transition from reverse-saturable absorption (RSA) to saturable absorption (SA) caused by excited state absorption induced mass transport of the CuPcTs dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide is observed in an open aperture Z-scan experiment with a 21-ps laser pulse. The nonsymmetrical transition from RSA to SA is ascribed neither to saturation of excited state absorption nor to thermal induced mass transport, the so-called Sorer effect. In our consideration, strong nonlinear absorption causes the rapid accumulation of the non-uniform kinetic energy of the solute molecules. The non-uniform kinetic field in turn causes the migration of the solute molecules. Additionally, an energy-gradient-induced mass transport theory is presented to interpret the experimental results, and the theoretical calculations are also taken to fit our experimental results.

文摘A variational-integral perturbation method(VIPM) is established by combining the variational perturbation with the integral perturbation.The first-order corrected wave functions are constructed,and the second-order energy corrections for the ground state and several lower excited states are calculated by applying the VIPM to the hydrogen atom in a strong uniform magnetic field.Our calculations demonstrated that the energy calculated by the VIPM only shows a negative value,which indicates that the VIPM method is more accurate than the other methods.Our study indicated that the VIPM can not only increase the accuracy of the results but also keep the convergence of the wave functions.

文摘Time-dependent density functional theory(TDDFT) method is used to investigate the details of the excited state intramolecular proton transfer(ESIPT) process and the mechanism for temperature effect on the Enol*/Keto*emission ratio for the Me2N-substited flavonoid(MNF) compound. The geometric structures of the S0 and S1 states are denoted as the Enol, Enol*, and Keto*. In addition, the absorption and fluorescence peaks are also calculated. It is noted that the calculated large Stokes shift is in good agreement with the experimental result. Furthermore, our results confirm that the ESIPT process happens upon photoexcitation, which is distinctly monitored by the formation and disappearance of the characteristic peaks of infrared(IR) spectra involved in the proton transfer and in the potential energy curves. Besides, the calculations of highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) reveal that the electronegativity change of proton acceptor due to the intramolecular charge redistribution in the S1 state induces the ESIPT. Moreover, the thermodynamic calculation for the MNF shows that the Enol*/Keto*emission ratio decreasing with temperature increasing arises from the barrier lowering of ESIPT.
