The central idea will be "from fragments to molecule" (FF2M). That is, the fragmental information will be employed to synthesize the molecular wave function, such that the locality (transferability) of the fragments (functional groups) is directly built into the algorithms. Both relativistic and spin-adapted open-shell TD-DFT will be considered. Use of the renormalized exciton method will also be made to further enhance the efficiency and accuracy of TD-DFT. Solvent effects are to be targeted with the fragment-based solvent model. It is expected that the integrated TD-DFT and program will be of great value in rational design of luminescent molecular materials.展开更多

The potential energy has been calculated over a wide range of internuclear separation for the 21 low-lying electronic states of the LiCl molecule dissociating into Li (^2S, ^2p, ^3S)+Cl (^2p). The (4)^1∑^+, (3)∏, 1-3^3∑^+, 1-3^3∏, 1,3Δ, ^1,3∑^-, (5)^1∑^+,(4)^3∑^+, (4)^3∏, (4)^3∏ excited states are studied for the first time in theory. Molecular spectroscopic constants .(Re, De,ωe, ωeΧe,Be and αe) have been derived for the 9 bound states (X^1∑^+, (3)^1∑^+, (2)^3∑^+, ^1,3Δ, ^1,3∑^-, (4)^∏, (4)^3∏) with a regular shape, and the spectroscopic constants of ground states X^1 ∑^+ are in good agreement with available experimental and theoretical values. The relative differences between experimental values and our values for Re, De, ωe, ωeΧe, Be and α3 are 1.02%, 0.60%, 1.72%, 9.46%, 2.0%, and 0.75%, respectively. Moreover, vibrational levels of 9 bound states, which have not been investigated experimentally, are computed.展开更多

The project focuses on theoretical investigation of the electronic structures and dynamic processes upon photo-and electric-excitation for molecules and aggregates. We aim to develop reliable methodology to predict the optoelectronic properties of molecular materials related to the electronic excitations and to apply in the experiments. We identify two essential scientific challenges: (i) nature of intramolecular and intermolecular electronic excited states; (ii) theoretical description of the dynamic processes of the coupled motion of electronic excitations and nucleus. We propose the following four subjects of research: (i) linear scaling time-dependent density-functional theory and its application to open shell system; (ii) computational method development of electronic excited state for molecular aggregates; (iii) theoretical investigation of the time evolution of the excited state dynamics; (iv) methods to predict the optoelectronic properties starting from electronic excited state investigation for organic materials and experimental verifications.展开更多

The corresponding dissociation limits for all states are derived based on atomic and molecular reaction statics. The analytical potential energy functions of these states are fitted with Murrell-Sorbie potential energy function from our calculation results. The spectroscopic constants Be, αe, ωe, and ωeχe of these states are calculated through the relationship between spectroscopic data and analytical energy function, which are in well agreement with the experimental data. In addition, the origin of the energy barrier in the ground state X^I∑9^+ of He2^++ energy curve are explained using the avoided crossing rules of valence bond model.展开更多

The calculations have been performed at 108 nuclear separations from 0.7 to 4.0 A by the aug-cc-PVSZ basis set. Spectroscopic constants for the six low-lying electronic states are found in good agreement with experimental data. The vibrational states of the X1∑+ and A1П states are also calculated, which are reliable and accurate by comparison with the experimental data and the other theoretical values. The transition dipole moment (TDM) shows that the TDM of the two states (X1∑+→A1П)are reduced strongly with increase of bond length.展开更多

A theoretical investigation of the interaction between two perpendicular π-systems of various oligothiophene substituted spirofluorenes is conducted. The results demonstrate that the interaction be- tween two perpendicular branches is reduced by oligothiophene substitutions. Photoexcitation induced relaxation is mainly located on one of the equivalent branches or the branch with longer conjugation length. In addition to these benefits brought by 9,9-spirobifluorene center, the specific oligothiophene moieties linked to the spirt center also have properties of significant merit, such as the ability to tune energy levels and emission colors by controlling the conjugation length.展开更多
