Triplet-singlet

These hold quite well for light atoms but become less dependable with greater nuclear charge. The tenu mtercombination bands is used for spectra where the spin quantum number S changes for example, singlet-triplet transitions. They are very weak in light atoms but quite easily observed in heavy ones.

One otlier common source of nonlinear response, singlet-triplet annihilation, is often tire reason for a discrepancy between fluorometric and absorjDtion kinetic measurements [27, 28 and 29].

The CNDO and CNDO/S methods apply the ZDO approximation to all integrals, regardless of whether the orbitals are loeated on the same atom or not. In the INDO method, whieh was designed to improve the treatment of spin densities at nuelear eenters and to handle singlet-triplet energy differenees for open-shell speeies, exehange integrals... 

Ah initio programs attempt to compute the lowest-energy state of a specified multiplicity. Thus, calculations for different spin states will give the lowest-energy state and a few of the excited states. This is most often done to determine singlet-triplet gaps in organic molecules. 

The consistent total energy makes it possible to compute singlet-triplet gaps using RHF for the singlet and the half-electron calculation for the triplet. Koopman s theorem is not followed for half-electron calculations. Also, no spin densities can be obtained. The Mulliken population analysis is usually fairly reasonable.

Data on duorescence, phosphorescence, excited-state lifetimes, transient absorption spectra, and dye lasers are tabulated in Ref. 16. The main nonduorescent process in cyanine dyes is the radiationless deactivation Sj — Sg. Maximum singlet-triplet interconversion ( 52 ) methanol for carbocyanines is about 3% (maxLgrp > 0.03), and the sum [Lpj + st] I than 0.10. 

CNDO/2 for predicting molecular geometries, it gave a vastly superior treatment of singlet-triplet splittings and spin densities.

Stability of diradicals is important for photochemical reactions. Spin multiplicity of the ground states is critical for the molecular magnetic materials. The relative stability of singlet (triplet) isomers and the spin multiplicity of the ground states (spin preference) [48] has been described to introduce the orbital phase theory in Sects. 2.1.5 and 2.1.6. Applications for the design of diradicals are reviewed by Ma and Inagaki elsewhere in this volume. Here, we briefly summarize the applications.
