Global diabatic potential energy surfaces and quantum dynamical studies for the Li(2p) + H2(X(1)Σ(+)g) → LiH(X(1)Σ(+)) + H reaction.

ABSTRACT: The global diabatic potential energy surfaces which are correlated with the ground state 1A' and the excited state 2A' of the Li(2p) + H2 reaction are presented in this study. The multi-reference configuration interaction method and large basis sets (aug-cc-pVQZ for H atom and cc-pwCVQZ for Li atom) were employed in the ab initio single-point energy calculations. The diabatic potential energies were generated by the diabatization scheme based on transition dipole moment operators. The neural network method was utilized to fit the matrix elements of the diabatic energy surfaces, and the root mean square errors were extremely small (3.69 meV for , 5.34 meV for and 5.06 meV for ). The topographical features of the diabatic potential energy surfaces were characterized and the surfaces were found to be sufficiently smooth for the dynamical calculation. The crossing seam of the conical intersections between the and surfaces were pinpointed. Based on this new analytical diabatic potential energy surfaces, time-dependent wave packet calculation were conducted to investigate the mechanism of the title reaction. At low collision energies, the product LiH molecule tends to forward scattering, while at high collision energies, the forward and backward scatterings exist simultaneously.

Specific Reaction Parameter Multigrid POTFIT (SRP-MGPF): Automatic Generation of Sum-of-Products Form Potential Energy Surfaces for Quantum Dynamical Calculations.

Project description:We present Specific Reaction Parameter Multigrid POTFIT (SRP-MGPF), an automated methodology for the generation of global potential energy surfaces (PES), molecular properties surfaces, e.g., dipole, polarizabilities, etc. using a single random geometry as input. The SRP-MGPF workflow integrates: (i) a fully automated procedure for the global topographical characterization of a (intermolecular) PES based on the Transition State Search Using Chemical Dynamical Simulations (TSSCDS) family of methods;i (ii) the global optimization of the parameters of a semiempirical Hamiltonian in order to reproduce a given level of electronic structure theory; and (iii) a tensor decomposition algorithm which turns the resulting SRP-PES into sum of products (Tucker) form with the Multigrid POTFIT algorithm. The latter is necessary for quantum dynamical studies within the Multiconfiguration Time-Dependent Hartree (MCTDH) quantum dynamics method. To demonstrate our approach, we have applied our methodology to the cis-trans isomerization reaction in HONO in full dimensionality (6D). The resulting SRP-PES has been validated through the computation of classical on-the-fly dynamical calculations as well as calculations of the lowest vibrational eigenstates of HONO as well as high-energy wavepacket propagations.

Accurate Potential Energy Surfaces for the Three Lowest Electronic States of N(2D) + H2(X1?g +) Scattering Reaction.

Project description:The three lowest full three-dimensional adiabatic and three diabatic global potential energy surfaces are reported for the title system. The accurate ab initio method (MCSCF/MRCI) with larger basis sets (aug-cc-pVQZ) is used to reduce the adiabatic potential energies, and the global adiabatic potential energy surfaces are deduced by a three-dimensional B-spline fitting method. The conical intersections and the mixing angles between the lowest three adiabatic potential energy surfaces are precisely studied. The most possible nonadiabatic reaction pathways are predicted, i.e., N(2D) + H2(X1?g +) ? NH2(22A') ? CI (12A'-22A') ? NH2(12A') ? CI (12A?-12A') ? NH2(12A?) ? NH(X3?-) + H(2S). The products of the first excited state (NH(a1?) + H(2S)) and the second excited state (NH(b1?g +) + H(2S)) can be generated in these nonadiabatic reaction pathways too.

Dynamical Quantum Filtering via Enhanced Scattering of para-H2 on the Orientationally Anisotropic Potential of SrTiO3(001).

Project description:Quantum dynamics calculation, performed on top of density functional theory (DFT)-based total energy calculations, show dynamical quantum filtering via enhanced scattering of para-H2 on SrTiO3(001). We attribute this to the strongly orientation-dependent (electrostatic) interaction potential between the H2 (induced) quadrupole moment and the surface electric field gradient of ionic SrTiO3(001). These results suggest that ionic surfaces could function as a scattering/filtering media to realize rotationally state-resolved H2. This could find significant applications not only in H2 storage and transport, but also in realizing materials with pre-determined characteristic properties.

Quantum Monte Carlo Calculations on a Benchmark Molecule-Metal Surface Reaction: H2 + Cu(111).

Project description:Accurate modeling of heterogeneous catalysis requires the availability of highly accurate potential energy surfaces. Within density functional theory, these can-unfortunately-depend heavily on the exchange-correlation functional. High-level ab initio calculations, on the other hand, are challenging due to the system size and the metallic character of the metal slab. Here, we present a quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) study for the benchmark system H2 + Cu(111), focusing on the dissociative chemisorption barrier height. These computationally extremely challenging ab initio calculations agree to within 1.6 ± 1.0 kcal/mol with a chemically accurate semiempirical value. Remaining errors, such as time-step errors and locality errors, are analyzed in detail in order to assess the reliability of the results. The benchmark studies presented here are at the cutting edge of what is computationally feasible at the present time. Illustrating not only the achievable accuracy but also the challenges arising within QMC in such a calculation, our study presents a clear picture of where we stand at the moment and which approaches might allow for even more accurate results in the future.

Dynamical structure factors of dynamical quantum simulators.

Project description:The dynamical structure factor is one of the experimental quantities crucial in scrutinizing the validity of the microscopic description of strongly correlated systems. However, despite its long-standing importance, it is exceedingly difficult in generic cases to numerically calculate it, ensuring that the necessary approximations involved yield a correct result. Acknowledging this practical difficulty, we discuss in what way results on the hardness of classically tracking time evolution under local Hamiltonians are precisely inherited by dynamical structure factors and, hence, offer in the same way the potential computational capabilities that dynamical quantum simulators do: We argue that practically accessible variants of the dynamical structure factors are bounded-error quantum polynomial time ([Formula: see text])-hard for general local Hamiltonians. Complementing these conceptual insights, we improve upon a novel, readily available measurement setup allowing for the determination of the dynamical structure factor in different architectures, including arrays of ultra-cold atoms, trapped ions, Rydberg atoms, and superconducting qubits. Our results suggest that quantum simulations employing near-term noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices should allow for the observation of features of dynamical structure factors of correlated quantum matter in the presence of experimental imperfections, for larger system sizes than what is achievable by classical simulation.

Quantum mechanical reaction rate constants by vibrational configuration interaction: the OH + H2->H2O + H reaction as a function of temperature.

Project description:The thermal rate constant of the 3D OH + H(2)-->H(2)O + H reaction was computed by using the flux autocorrelation function, with a time-independent square-integrable basis set. Two modes that actively participate in bond making and bond breaking were treated by using 2D distributed Gaussian functions, and the remaining (nonreactive) modes were treated by using harmonic oscillator functions. The finite-basis eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian were obtained by solving the resulting generalized eigenvalue equation, and the flux autocorrelation function for a dividing surface optimized in reduced-dimensionality calculations was represented in the basis formed by the eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian. The rate constant was obtained by integrating the flux autocorrelation function. The choice of the final time to which the integration is carried was determined by a plateau criterion. The potential energy surface was from Wu, Schatz, Lendvay, Fang, and Harding (WSLFH). We also studied the collinear H + H(2) reaction by using the Liu-Siegbahn-Truhlar-Horowitz (LSTH) potential energy surface. The calculated thermal rate constant results were compared with reported values on the same surfaces. The success of these calculations demonstrates that time-independent vibrational configuration interaction can be a very convenient way to calculate converged quantum mechanical rate constants, and it opens the possibility of calculating converged rate constants for much larger reactions than have been treated until now.

Reduced-Dimensionality Quantum Dynamics Study of the 3Fe(CO)4 + H2 1FeH2(CO)4 Spin-inversion Reaction.

Project description:Many chemical reactions of transition metal compounds involve a change in spin state via spin inversion, which is induced by relativistic spin-orbit coupling. In this work, we theoretically study the efficiency of a typical spin-inversion reaction, 3Fe(CO)4 + H2 1FeH2(CO)4. Structural and vibrational information on the spin-inversion point, obtained through the spin-coupled Hamiltonian approach, is used to construct three degree-of-freedom potential energy surfaces and to obtain singlet-triplet spin-orbit couplings. Using the developed spin-diabatic potential energy surfaces in reduced dimensions, we perform quantum nonadiabatic transition state wave packet calculations to obtain the cumulative reaction probability. The calculated cumulative reaction probability is found to be significantly larger than that estimated from the one-dimensional surface-hopping probability. This indicates the importance of both multidimensional and nuclear quantum effects in spin inversion for polyatomic chemical reaction systems.

Classical and Quantum Dynamical Manifestations of Index-

Project description:The presence of higher-index saddles on a multidimensional potential energy surface is usually assumed to be of little significance in chemical reaction dynamics. Such a viewpoint requires careful reconsideration, thanks to elegant experiments and novel theoretical approaches that have come about in recent years. In this work, we perform a detailed classical and quantum dynamical study of a model two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian, which captures the essence of the debate regarding the dominance of a concerted or a stepwise reaction mechanism. We show that the ultrafast shift of the mechanism from a concerted to a stepwise one is essentially a classical dynamical effect. In addition, due to the classical phase space being a mixture of regular and chaotic dynamics, it is possible to have a rich variety of dynamical behavior, including a Murrell – Laidler type mechanism, even at energies sufficiently above that of the index- Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material with details on computation of the invariant

Quantum coherence as a witness of vibronically hot energy transfer in bacterial reaction center.

Project description:Photosynthetic proteins have evolved over billions of years so as to undergo optimal energy transfer to the sites of charge separation. On the basis of spectroscopically detected quantum coherences, it has been suggested that this energy transfer is partially wavelike. This conclusion depends critically on the assignment of the coherences to the evolution of excitonic superpositions. We demonstrate that, for a bacterial reaction center protein, long-lived coherent spectroscopic oscillations, which bear canonical signatures of excitonic superpositions, are essentially vibrational excited-state coherences shifted to the ground state of the chromophores. We show that the appearance of these coherences arises from a release of electronic energy during energy transfer. Our results establish how energy migrates on vibrationally hot chromophores in the reaction center, and they call for a reexamination of claims of quantum energy transfer in photosynthesis.

Dynamical Quantum Phase Transition and Quasi Particle Excitation.

Project description:Dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) are signaled by the non-analytical time evolution of the dynamical free energy after quenching some global parameters in quantum systems. The dynamical free energy is calculated from the overlap between the initial and the time evolved states (Loschmidt amplitude). In a recent study it was suggested that DPTs are related to the equilibrium phase transitions (EPTs) (Heyl, M. et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 135704 (2013)). We here study an exactly solvable model, the extended XY model, the Loschmidt amplitude of which provides a counterexample. We show analytically that the connection between the DPTs and the EPTs does not hold generally. Analysing also the general compass model as a second example, assists us to propound the physical condition under which the DPT occurs without crossing the equilibrium critical point, and also no DPT by crossing the equilibrium critical point.
