A Sequential Monte Carlo/Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory

چکیده
A transição eletrônica n * do formaldeído em água é analisada usando-se um procedimento combinado e seqüencial de Monte Carlo (MC) clássico e mecânica quântica (MQ). MC é usado para gerar configurações do líquido para uso posterior em cálculos de MQ. Usando-se a representação espectral da teoria do funcional da densidade com uma base de funções gaussianas localizadas (TD-DFT/6-311++G(d,p)) cálculos são realizados em configurações estatisticamente descorrelacionadas para se obter o deslocamento solvatocrômico. Todos os resultados são obtidos usando-se uma representação onde o solvente é tratado como um campo eletrostático. O resultado médio obtido de 2300 cm é comparado com resultados teóricos anteriores. Análise é feita do valor do momento de dipolo efetivo da camada associada com as ligações de hidrogênio e como ela pode influenciar as camadas de solvatação mais externas.

Static and Time Dependent Density Functional Theory with Internal Degrees of Freedom: Merits and Limitations Demonstrated for the Potts Model
We present an extension of the density-functional theory (DFT) formalism for lattice gases to systems with internal degrees of freedom. In order to test approximations commonly used in DFT approaches, we investigate the statics and dynamics of occupation (density) profiles in the one-dimensional Potts model. In particular, by taking the exact functional for this model we can directly evaluate t...
متن کاملExcitons in small hydrogenated Si clusters
The excitonic states of four small hydrogenated Si clusters (SiH4 ,Si2H6 ,Si5H12 , and Si10H16! are studied using the diffusion quantum Monte Carlo approach. The importance of using accurate guiding wave functions is stressed and we show that the quantum chemical singles-only configuration interaction method and the time-dependent density functional theory within the adiabatic local-density app...
متن کاملA Wigner Monte Carlo approach to density functional theory
In order to simulate quantum N -body systems, stationary and time-dependent density functional theories rely on the capacity of calculating the single-electron wavefunctions of a system from which one obtains the total electron density (Kohn-Sham systems). In this paper, we introduce the use of the Wigner Monte Carlo method in ab-initio calculations. This approach allows time-dependent simulati...
متن کاملComparison of quantum Monte Carlo with time-dependent and static density-functional theory calculations of diamondoid excitation energies and Stokes shifts
We compute the absorption and emission energies and hence Stokes shifts of small diamondoids as a function of size using different theoretical approaches, including density-functional theory (DFT) and quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculations. The absorption spectra of these molecules are also investigated by time-dependent DFT and compared with experiment. We analyze the structural distortion and...
متن کاملAn introduction to applied quantum mechanics in the Wigner Monte Carlo formalism
The Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics is a very intuitive approach which allows the comprehension and prediction of quantum mechanical phenomena in terms of quasidistribution functions. In this review, our aim is to provide a detailed introduction to this theory along with a Monte Carlo method for the simulation of time-dependent quantum systems evolving in a phase-space. This work consis...
