The transfer of charge at the molecular level plays a fundamental role in many areas chemistry, physics, biology and materials science. Today, more than 60 years after seminal work R. A. Marcus, is still very active field research. An important recent impetus comes from ability to resolve ever faster temporal events, down attosecond time scale. Such high resolution now offers possibility unravel most elementary quantum dynamics both electrons nuclei that participate complex process transfer. This review covers research addresses following questions. Can we reconstruct migration across molecule on atomic length electronic scales? use strong laser fields control migration? temporally understand intramolecular dissociative ionization small molecules, transition-metal complexes conjugated polymers? tailor systems towards specific charge-transfer processes? What are scales steps liquids nanoparticles? Important new insights into each these topics, obtained state-of-the-art ultrafast spectroscopy and/or theoretical methods, summarized this review.

Light emission in two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) changes significantly with the number of layers and stacking sequence. While electronic structure optical absorption are well understood 2D-TMDs, much less is known about exciton dynamics radiative recombination. Here, we show first-principles calculations intrinsic lifetimes at low temperature (4 K) room (300 TMD monolayers chemical formula MX2 (X = Mo, W, X S, Se), as bilayer bulk MoS2 two heterobilayers. Our results elucidate time scale microscopic origin light TMDs. We find a few picoseconds nanoseconds slower recombination than monolayer MoS2. The MoS2/WS2 MoSe2/WSe2 heterobilayers exhibit very long-lived (∼20–30 ns temperature) interlayer excitons constituted by electrons localized on Mo-based holes W-based monolayer. wide lifetime tunability, together ability shown here to predict from computations, hold unique potential manipulate TMDs their heterostructures for application optoelectronics solar energy conversion.

Electronic movement flashing into view Numerous chemical processes begin with ionization: the ejection of an electron from a molecule. What happens in immediate aftermath that event? Kraus et al. explored this question iodoacetylene by detecting and analyzing spectrum emitted high harmonics (see Perspective Ueda). They traced migration residual positively charged hole along molecular axis on time scale faster than quadrillionth second. thereby characterized capacity laser field to steer hole's motion appropriately oriented molecules.

In this work, we provide an overview of how well-established concepts in the fields quantum chemistry and material sciences have to be adapted when nature light becomes important correlated matter-photon problems. We analyze model systems optical cavities, where interaction is considered from weak- strong-coupling limit for individual photon modes as well multimode case. identify fundamental changes Born-Oppenheimer surfaces, spectroscopic quantities, conical intersections, efficiency control. conclude by applying our recently developed quantum-electrodynamical density-functional theory spontaneous emission show a straightforward approximation accurately describes electron-photon dynamics. This work paves way describe interactions first principles addresses emergence new states matter science.

Abstract The voltage loss, determined by the difference between optical gap ( E g ) and open‐circuit V OC ), is one of most important parameters determining performance organic solar cells (OSCs). However, variety different methods used to determine makes it hard fairly compare voltages losses among material systems. In this paper, authors discuss various determination show how they affect detailed calculation losses, as well predictions maximum achievable power conversion efficiency. aim paper make possible for OSC community in a consistent reasonable way. It found that strongly absorbed photons state‐of‐the‐art OSCs are not much less than 0.6 V, which still must be decreased further enhance
