Classical calculation of transient absorption spectra monitoring ultrafast electron transfer processes — •Igor Uspenskiy, Birgit Strodel, and Gerhard Stock — Institut für Physikalische und Theoretische Chemie, J.W. Goethe Universität Marie-Curie-Str. 11, 60439 Frankfurt am Main, Germany
The mapping approach [1] is applied to the classical description of the ultrafast electron transfer processes. Several classical approximations to calculate time- frequency- resolved pump-probe spectra are represented. We generalize various versions of semiclassical Frank-Condon approximation to the case of nonadiabatically coupled potential energy surfaces [2]. Moreover, we employed classical electron analog model to define the classical analog of electron dipole transition operator [3]. We studied foregoing methods for models, witch describe (i) the internal conversions in symmetric potential spin-boson model with external ground state, and (ii) electron-transfer model in mixed-valence system of the compound ( NH3 )5 RuIII NCRuII ( CN )5 − with reduced number of vibrational modes. Exact reference data are compared to approximate calculations of populations, wave-packet motions, as well as time-frequency resolved spectra for various durations of the pump and probe pulses.
