Time step should not be larger than 1 fs (1/10v).

∆t = 0.5 fs assures a good level of conservation of energy most of the time.

Exception: dynamics close to the conical intersection may require 0.25 fs.

Forbidden hop

Forbidden hop makes the classical statistical distributions deviate from the quantum populations.

How to treat them:• Reject all classically forbidden hop and keep the momentum.• Reject all classically forbidden hop and invert the momentum.• Use the time incertainty to search for a point in which the hop is allowed (Jasper et al. 116 5424 (2002)).

A basic protocolA basic protocolA basic protocol

• Use TD-DFT for large systems (> 10 heavy atoms) with one single configuration dominating the region of the phase space spanned by the dynamics. Test against CASSCF and RI-CC2.

• Use TD-DFT for large systems until a multireference region of the phase space be reached. Switch to CASSCF to continue the dynamics.

• Use RI-CC2 for medium systems (6-10 heavy atoms) under the same conditions as in the previous two points.

• Use CASSCF for medium systems with strong multireference character in all phase space. Test against MRCI.

• Use MRCI for small systems (< 6 heavy atoms).

• In all cases, when the number of relevant internal coordinates is small (2-4) and they can easily be determined, test against wave-packet dynamics.

What has theory to say?

• The decay can be due to πσ*/S0 crossing Sobolewski and Domcke, Eur. Phys. J. D 20, 369 (2002).

• Or maybe due to the ππ*/S0 crossingMarian, JCP 122, 104314 (2005).

• Or nπ*/S0 crossing, who knows?Chen and Li, JPCA 109, 8443 (2005).

• Maybe, there’s no crossing at all!Langer and Doltsinis, PCCP 6, 2742 (2004)

• Our own dynamics simulations (TD-DFT(B3LYP)/SVP) do not show any crossing too…

• But the dynamics calculations are not reliable enough until now: or they miss the MR character, or the nonadiabatic character, or both!

4-amino pyrimidineSA-3-CAS(5,6)/6-31G*

Time (fs)

The system moves toward the crossing seam with out-of-plane motions similar to that predicted by Marian for adenine (JCP 122, 104314 (2005))

Time (fs)

If the H-atoms that replace the ring have a big isotopic mass, the out-of-plane motion is inhibited and there is no crossing.

Average probability is 4×10-5

in each 0.05 fs.

In 1 ps, the probability is 0.8.

The system does not need a crossing to decay in 1 ps. The weak S1/S0 coupling is enough to induce the transfer.

ConclusionsConclusionsConclusions

Dynamics, Why?• Ab initio dynamics can be used to characterize lifetimes, and relaxations paths in the ground and excited state, occurring in the time scale of sub-picosecond.• Dynamics reveal features that is not easily found by static methods.• Dynamics can be used to locate the important regions of the crossing seam.

Excited-state dynamics around the world (a very incomplete and biased inventory…)• Semiclassical dynamics:Tully; Jasper and Thrular; Robb, Olivucci and Buss; Barbatti and Lischka; Marx and Doltsinis (Car-Parrinelo); Granucci and Persico (local diabatization); Martinez-Nuñez; Pittner and Bonačić-Koutecký; Neufeld.

Our contributionOur contributionOur contribution

Towards an implementation of surface hopping dynamics• NEWTON-X: new implementation of on-the-fly surface hopping dynamics.• Energies, gradients and nonadiabatic coupling vectors can be read from any quantum chemical package.• For MRCI and CASSCF dynamics, COLUMBUS has been used.• For TD-DFT and RI-CC2, TURBOMOLE.

Where are we going now?• QM/MM: investigation of the influence of the environment on the relaxations paths, lifetimes and efficiency of the crossing seam.
