CBS models typically include a Hartree-Fock calculation with a very large basis set, an MP2 calculation with a medium-sized basis set (and this is also the level where the CBS extrapolation is performed), and one or more higher-level calculations with a medium-to-modest basis set. The following table outlines the components of the CBS-4 and CBS-Q model chemistries ... 

There are several different CBS methods, each having its own set of prescriptions and resulting computational cost and accuracy, they are known under the acronyms CBS-4, CBS-q, CBS-Q and CBS-APNO. As an explicit example, we will take the CBS-Q model, " which is computationally similar to the G2(MP2) method. 

It is instructive to first of all consider the case when Pj = p for all sites fc andtimes j (he. a quantum model which retains the dynamical form of equations 8.66 and 8.73 but in which p i) are externally chosen and fixed in time and space). In this crude approximation to the fully range-dependent q-model, it is easy to calculate t] = the probability of finding the color at time t . Choosing...

The electronic components for the measurements consisted of EG Q Model 173 Potentiostat equipped with slow sweep option (0.1 mv/sec) and EG G Model 376 Logarithmic Current Converter. An EG G Model 175 Universal Programmer supplied the waveform for running the polarization experiment. The output from the electrometer of the 173 and the log output of the 376 were connected to a Hewlett-Packard Model 7036B X-Y Recorder and the potential plotted versus log current. 

The linear terms in x[n - i i] have not been included since they are represented by the linear terms in the AR model. This model will be referred to as Autoregressive Nonlinear Autoregressive (AR-NAR) model in general and as AR(P)-NAR(Q) model in which the AR section has order P and only Q of the non-linear terms from equation 4.29 are included. Note that the undistorted signal s[ ] can be recovered from the distorted signal x n by use of equation 4.29 provided that the parameter values can be identified.

This index is a measure of the width of the decay rate distribution /(F) and thus the range of diffusion constants (and hence sizes) present in the sample. When 0 = 0, the sample is monodisperse. A nonzero value of Q will, however, not tell one whether the distribution is a broad symmetric distribution, a skewed distribution, or possibly a bimodal distribution since Q models only the width and not the shape of the distribution. 

Eq. [33] according to the assumption of the classical character of this collective mode. Depending on the form of the coupling of the electron donor-acceptor subsystem to the solvent field, one may consider linear or nonlinear solvation models. The coupling term - Si -V in Eq. [32] represents the linear coupling model (L model) that results in a widely used linear response approximation. Some general properties of the bilinear coupling (Q model) are discussed below. 

Clearly, the MFI description does not capture all possible complicated mechanisms of ET activation in condensed phases. The general question that arises in this connection is whether we are able to formulate an extension of the mathematical MH framework that would (1) exactly derive from the system Hamiltonian, (2) comply with the fundamental linear constraint in Eq. [24], (3) give nonparabolic free energy surfaces and more flexibility to include nonlinear electronic or solvation effects, and (4) provide an unambiguous connection between the model parameters and spectroscopic observables. In the next section, we present the bilinear coupling model (Q model), which satisfies the above requirements and provides a generalization of the MH model.

The inequalities in Eq. [75] also define the condition for the generating function (Eq. [23]) to be analytic in the integration contour in Eq. [25]. This condition is equivalent to the linear connection between the diabatic free energy surfaces, Eq. [24]. The Q model solution thus explicitly indicates that the linear relation between the diabatic free energy surfaces is equivalent to the condition of thermodynamic stability of the collective nuclear mode driving ET. 

Equations [73] and [74] reduce the number of independent parameters of the Q model to three AEq, i, and ai. Elere, AFq (Eq. [21]) is the free energy gap between equilibrium configurations of the system (Figure 2). The fluctuation boundary Xq is connected to AEq by the relation... 

Compared to the two-parameter MH theory (X and AEq), the Q model introduces an additional flexibility in terms of the relative variation of the fluctuation force constant through oti. The MH theory is recovered in the limit... 

To complete the Q model, one needs to relate the model parameters to spectral observables. Already, the reorganization energies X, are directly related to the solvent-induced inhomogeneous widths of absorption i= 1)... 

As is easy to see from Eq. [80] and Figure 7, the Q model predicts the breaking of the symmetry between the absorption and emission widths (Eq. [11]) generated by a statistical distribution of solvent configurations around a donor-acceptor complex (inhomogeneous broadening). This fact may have a significant application to the band shape analysis of optical transitions since unequal absorption and emission width are often observed experimently. " ...
