The considered approximate methods are the so-called complete second-order quantum dissipation theories, in either the chronological ordering prescription or the correlated driving-dissipation form. Analytical results can be derived for the linear absorption of two-state systems. Assessments on their applicability are then made by comparison to the exact results.展开更多

The theoretical results show that there are a few charge-transfer states for each compound in the lower energy region. The one-photon absorption properties of the five investigated compounds are highly consistent with those given by experimental measurements. The two-photon absorption intensities of the compounds are greatly enhanced with the increments of the molecular sizes, in which the two-photon absorption cross section of the four-branched compound is about 5.6 times of that of the mono-branched molecule. Fhrthermore, it is shown that the two-photon absorption properties are sensitive to the geometrical arrangements.展开更多

The results are compared with our previous work based on the film theory. The 2,4-dichlorophenol destruction rate by ozonation is predicted using the enhancement factor model in this paper.展开更多

The geometry optimiza-tion and the calculation of vibrational frequencies in the gas phase were performed at the B3LYP/6-311＋ G（d,p） level of theory. Moreover, the standard solvation free energies of the studied species were computed upon the solution phase optimized geometries through the latest continuum solvation model （SMD/IEF-PCM） at the HF/6-31G（d） level of theory. With this approach, two important properties of the CO2 absorption into the aqueous so-lutions of the studied amines were evaluated： the acid dissociation constant （pKa） of the parent amines and the standard enthalpy change （ΔH^φabs） related to the CO2 absorption process. A roughly linear relationship was observed between pKa and ΔH^φabs. This finding suggests that a raise in the basicity of an amine leads to an increase in the heat released in CO2 absorption and consequently in the required energy for the regeneration of amine.展开更多
