Modelling of potential energy surfaces for photochemistry: conical intersections and application to optical control

Conical Intersections (CI) are points in Potential Energy Surfaces (PES) of two or more states that have the same energy. They are fundamental to understand photo-chemical processes. These points are not isolated points, CI form seam between PES. One way to study they is to find the minimum energy C...

For this reason, in this thesis, a new algorithm for finding MECI has been proposed: Double Newton-Raphson (DNR).

Son essencials per entendre els processos fotoquímics. Aquest punts no estan aïllats, les CI formen interseccions entre les PES. Una manera d'estudiar-los és trobant els mínims d'energia (MECI). Per aquest motiu, en aquesta tesis, un nou algoritme ha estat proposat: Double Newton-Raphson (DNR). El DNR ha estat implementat en el programa Gaussian® per càlculs totalment quàntics i ONIOM. Aquest ha estat provat juntament amb altres algoritmes amb un test set amb correctes resultats. Utilitzant els estudis de la PES i els MECI és possible proposar noves estratègies per controlar foto-reaccions. En aquesta tesis, una nova estratègia de control ha estat proposada per tal de controlar la foto-rotació del fulvè, utilitzant dos làsers diferents, un ressonant i un altre no-ressonant per obtenir un efecte Stark. Aquesta estratega ha estat simulada amb dinàmiques moleculars quàntiques. Les simulacions mostres que s'aconsegueix el controlUniversitat de GironaBlancafort San José, LluísUniversitat de Girona.
