Time-Dependent Response Theory

Poul Jorgensen [13] has been involved in developing such so-called response theories for perturbations that may be time dependent (e.g. as in the interaction of light s electromagnetic radiation). [Pg.2158]

In recent years, these methods have been greatly expanded and have reached a degree of reliability where they now offer some of the most accurate tools for studying excited and ionized states. In particular, the use of time-dependent variational principles have allowed the much more rigorous development of equations for energy differences and nonlinear response properties [81]. In addition, the extension of the EOM theory to include coupled-cluster reference fiuictioiis [ ] now allows one to compute excitation and ionization energies using some of the most accurate ab initio tools. [Pg.2188]

The perturbation theory presented in Chapter 2 implies that orientational relaxation is slower than rotational relaxation and considers the angular displacement during a free rotation to be a small parameter. Considering J(t) as a random time-dependent perturbation, it describes the orientational relaxation as a molecular response to it. Frequent and small chaotic turns constitute the rotational diffusion which is shown to be an equivalent representation of the process. The turns may proceed via free paths or via sudden jumps from one orientation to another. The phenomenological picture of rotational diffusion is compatible with both... [Pg.5]

The simplified theory allows the time-dependent wave function to be calculated rapidly for any specified laser field. However, controlling the dynamics of the charge carriers requires the answer to an inverse question [18-22]. That is, given a specific target or objective, what is the laser field that best drives the system to that objective Several methods have been developed to address this question. This section sketches one method, valid in the weak response (perturbative) regime in which most experiments on semiconductors are performed. [Pg.252]

The development of the theory of heat-flow calorimetry (Section VI) has demonstrated that the response of a calorimeter of this type is, because of the thermal inertia of the instrument, a distorted representation of the time-dependence of the evolution of heat produced, in the calorimeter cell, by the phenomenon under investigation. This is evidently the basic feature of heat-flow calorimetry. It is therefore particularly important to profit from this characteristic and to correct the calorimetric data in order to gain information on the thermokinetics of the process taking place in a heat-flow calorimeter. [Pg.218]

Using this factorizability of response into a time-dependent and a strain-dependent function. Landel et ai. (61,62) have proposed a theory that would express tensile stress relaxation in the nonlinear regime as the product of a time-dependent modulus and a function of the strain ... [Pg.83]

The linear response theory [50,51] provides us with an adequate framework in order to study the dynamics of the hydrogen bond because it allows us to account for relaxational mechanisms. If one assumes that the time-dependent electrical field is weak, such that its interaction with the stretching vibration X-H Y may be treated perturbatively to first order, linearly with respect to the electrical field, then the IR spectral density may be obtained by the Fourier transform of the autocorrelation function G(t) of the dipole moment operator of the X-H bond ... [Pg.247]

In this chapter we will focus on one particular, recently developed DFT-based approach, namely on first-principles (Car-Parri-nello) molecular dynamics (CP-MD) [9] and its latest advancements into a mixed quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) scheme [10-12] in combination with the calculation of various response properties [13-18] within DFT perturbation theory (DFTPT) and time-dependent DFT theory (TDDFT) [19]. [Pg.6]

The actual form of the Hamiltonian operator hp does not have to be defined at this moment. As in standard perturbation theory, it is assumed that the solution of the electronic structure problem of the combined Hamiltonian HKS +HP can be described as the solution y/(0) of HKS, corrected by a small additional linear-response wavefunction /b//(,). Only these response orbitals will explicitly depend on time - they will follow the oscillations of the external perturbation and adopt its time dependency. Thus, the following Ansatz is made for the solution of the perturbed Hamiltonian HKS +HP ... [Pg.34]

Time-dependent Density-functional Response Theory (TD-DFRT)... [Pg.120]

Time-dependent response theory concerns the response of a system initially in a stationary state, generally taken to be the ground state, to a perturbation turned on slowly, beginning some time in the distant past. The assumption that the perturbation is turned on slowly, i.e. the adiabatic approximation, enables us to consider the perturbation to be of first order. In TD-DFT the density response dp, i.e. the density change which results from the perturbation dveff, enables direct determination of the excitation energies as the poles of the response function dP (the linear response of the KS density matrix in the basis of the unperturbed molecular orbitals) without formally having to calculate a(co). [Pg.121]

The study of behavior of many-electron systems such as atoms, molecules, and solids under the action of time-dependent (TD) external fields, which includes interaction with radiation, has been an important area of research. In the linear response regime, where one considers the external held to cause a small perturbation to the initial ground state of the system, one can obtain many important physical quantities such as polarizabilities, dielectric functions, excitation energies, photoabsorption spectra, van der Waals coefficients, etc. In many situations, for example, in the case of interaction of many-electron systems with strong laser held, however, it is necessary to go beyond linear response for investigation of the properties. Since a full theoretical description based on accurate solution of TD Schrodinger equation is not yet within the reach of computational capabilities, new methods which can efficiently handle the TD many-electron correlations need to be explored, and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is one such valuable approach. [Pg.71]

An alternative theory is the popular time-dependent density functional theory [44], in which transition energies are obtained from the poles of dynamic linear response properties. There are several excellent reviews on time-dependent density functional theory. See, for instance, Ref. [45]. [Pg.122]

Figure 5 Typical velocity relationship of kinetic friction for a sliding contact in which friction is from adsorbed layers confined between two incommensurate walls. The kinetic friction F is normalized by the static friction Fs. At extremely small velocities v, the confined layer is close to thermal equilibrium and, consequently, F is linear in v, as to be expected from linear response theory. In an intermediate velocity regime, the velocity dependence of F is logarithmic. Instabilities or pops of the atoms can be thermally activated. At large velocities, the surface moves too quickly for thermal effects to play a role. Time-temperature superposition could be applied. All data were scaled to one reference temperature.

The last method used in this study is CCSD linear response theory [37]. The frequency-dependent polarizabilities are again identified from the time evolution of the corresponding moments. However, in CCSD response theory the moments are calculated as transition expectation values between the coupled cluster state l cc(O) and a dual state... [Pg.190]

We denote the fluctuations of the number density of the monomers of component j at a point r and at a time t as pj r,t). With this definition we have pj(r,t))=0. In linear response theory, the Fourier-Laplace transform of the time-dependent mean density response to an external time dependent potential U r,t) is expressed as ... [Pg.163]

As pointed out by Shatkay [152], there was no theory of the response time before 1975, except for the work of Markovic and Osborn [99], and the time dependence of ise on a change in the concentration was characterized by interpolation formulae, such as the exponential,... [Pg.85]
