Optimization of laser-driven intramolecular hydrogen transfer in the presence of dephasing
نویسنده
چکیده
The coherent control of laser-driven intramolecular hydrogen transfer is considered in the presence of pure dephasing. Emphasis is put on performing the optimization in the presence of dephasing. Simple analytical expressions are obtained for the optimal pulse shape and optimal yield as functions of the dephasing rate constant. It is found that dephasing is not always uncontrollable and destructive, and that the optimal pulse shape is dictated by the minimization of the destructive attributes of the dephasing processes, as much as by steering the coherent component of the dynamics towards the desired goal. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1431276#

Computational study of the intramolecular proton transfer between 6-hydroxypicolinic acid tautomeric forms and intermolecular hydrogen bonding in their dimers
This paper is a density functional theory (DFT) calculation of intramolecular proton transfer (IPT) in 6-hydroxypicolinic acid (6HPA, 6-hydroxypyridine-2-carboxylic acid) tautomeric forms. The transition state for the enol-to-keto transition is reported in the gas phase and in four different solvents. The planar and non-planar dimer forms of 6HPA keto and enol, respectively, were also studied i...
متن کاملGeneralized quantum Fokker–Planck theory and its application to laser driven intramolecular hydrogen transfer reactions in condensed phases
A generalized quantum Fokker–Planck theory is proposed to treat the correlated dynamics of coherent driving and Markovian dissipation. The resulting formulation is applicable to arbitrary external time-dependent driving fields and satisfies the detailed balance condition at arbitrary temperatures. Analyzed are also the formal relations among the Caldeira–Leggett quantum Fokker– Planck equation,...
متن کاملPlasma Wave Acceleration of Electron in Bubble Regime in Presence of a Planar Wiggler
The plasma wave acceleration of electron in the bubble regime is investigated in a new configuration containing a planar wiggler. The space-charge field of the laser-created ion channel can focuse and stabilize the electron trajectory to guide it toward the acceleration region. The high-gradient plasma wave field can resonantly accelerate the trapped electron to higher energies in the presence ...
