Linear and non-linear responses in pump-probe spectroscopy — •Tanja Dimitrov1, Heiko Appel1, and Angel Rubio1, 2 — 1Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Berlin, Germany — 2NanoBio Spectroscopy group and ETSF, Universidad del País Vasco, San Sebastián, Spain
In this work, we investigate the time-dependent dipole response of molecular systems for pump probe laser experiments. We compare the response of widely used approximate adiabatic functionals in time-dependent density functional theory to the exact solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for realistic model systems. In particular, we focus on the role of memory effects and the corresponding signature in the optical absorption spectra.
