Correlated ground state ab initio studies of polymersAbdurahman, Ayjamal 19 December 2000 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis we have investigated the correlated ground state properties of polymers by applying wave-function-based ab-initio quantum-chemical methods such as the Hartree-Fock approach, the full configuration interaction method (FCI), coupled-cluster (CC) and Moller-Plesset second-order perturbation (MP2) theory. The polymers we have studied are the boron-nitrogen polymers, i.e., polyiminoborane (PIB) and polyaminoborane (PAB), the lithium hydride chain and the beryllium hydride polymer as well as the polymethineimine (PMI). The optimized structural parameters, cohesive energies, polymerization ernergies, relative stabilities of isomeric forms and some band structure results are presented. The results demonstrated that quantum chemical ab initio methods can be applied successfully to infinite systems like polymers, although such calculations are still far from being routine.

The ground and excited state molecular structure of model systems undergoing photochemical processes and the characterization of active agents by means of vibrational spectroscopy and theoretical calculations / Die Molekularstruktur des Grund- und angeregten Zustandes von Modelsystemen bei Photochemischen Prozessen und die Charakterisierung von Wirkstoffen mittels Schwingungsspektroskopie und Theoretische RechnungenSzeghalmi, Adriana Viorica January 2005 (has links) (PDF)
The present thesis reports about vibrational and quantum chemical investigations on model systems undergoing photochemical processes and pharmaceutically active compounds, respectively. Infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy were applied for the characterization of the ground state molecular structure. Moreover, resonance Raman (RR) spectra contain additional information about the resonantly enhanced excited state molecular structure. A quantitative resonance Raman intensity analysis in conjunction with the simultaneous simulation of the absorption spectra by means of time-dependent propagation methods was accomplished in order to extract valuable information about the excited state molecular structures of the investigated systems. Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) allows one to determine the interaction and adsorption site of active agents on a metal substrate. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) and potential energy distribution (PED) calculations were carried out for an exact assignment of the vibrational spectra. Complete active space self consistent field (CASSCF) and configuration interaction (CI) calculations for some model systems were also performed to assess the experimental results on the excited state potential surfaces. The fundamentals of resonance Raman spectroscopy are treated in detail, describing the physical processes and emphasizing the theoretical methodologies which allow one to obtain the information about the resonantly excited state via an RR intensity analysis. The Brownian oscillator model to determine the solvent reorganization energy is briefly presented. Furthermore, the SERS enhancement mechanisms and selection rules to determine the orientation of the molecules adsorbed on the metal substrate are discussed. The Hartree-Fock approach to calculate the ground state geometry is expatiated, and the basic characteristics of the CI and CASSCF calculations are specified. The chapter ends with a short description of the DFT calculations. Chapter 4 deals with the investigation of the excited state intramolecular proton transfer of the model system, 1-hydroxy-2-acetonaphthone (HAN). The vibrations showing the highest displacement parameters correspond to stretching and in-plane deformation modes of the naphthalene ring and the conjugated carbonyl group, while the OH stretching mode exhibits no observable enhancement. The cooperative effect of the skeletal vibrations reduces the distance between the carbonyl and hydroxyl oxygen atoms in accordance with a general electron density redistribution. Hence, the leading force in the proton transfer process is the increase in electron density on the carbonyl group and the decrease of the negative charge on the hydroxyl oxygen. In chapter 5 the structural and vibrational characteristics of the organic mixed valence system N,N,N’,N’-tetraphenylphenylenediamine radical cation (1+) are discussed. The resonance Raman measurements showed that at least eight vibrational modes are strongly coupled to the optical charge transfer process in (1+). These Franck-Condon active modes were assigned to symmetric vibrations. The most enhanced band corresponds to the symmetric stretching mode along the N-phenylene-N unit and exhibits the largest vibrational reorganization energy. Nevertheless, symmetric stretching modes of the phenylene and phenyl units as well as deformation modes are also coupled to the electronic process. The total vibrational reorganization energy of these symmetrical modes is dominant, while the solvent induced broadening and reorganization energy are found to be small. Hence, (1+) adopts a symmetrical delocalized Robin-Day Class III structure in the ground state. Chapter 6 reports about a vibrational spectroscopic investigation of a model organic photorefractive thiophene derivative, 2-(N,N-diethylamino)-5-(2’,2’-dicyanovinyl)-thiophene. The geometry of the first excited state were optimized and the FC parameters were calculated using the configuration interaction with single excitations method. These calculations show that the contribution of the zwitterionic structure to the excited state is significantly higher than in the ground state. The resonance Raman spectra indicate that several stretching modes along the bonds connecting the donor and acceptor moieties as well as the S-C stretching vibrations are enhanced. Chapter 7 presents the vibrational analysis of an aziridinyl tripeptide, a cysteine protease inhibitor active drug. The vibrational analysis reveals stronger H-bonding of the aziridine NH unit in the solid state of the aziridinyl tripeptide than in the liquid electrophilic building block, indicating medium strong intermolecular H-bond interactions in the crystal unit. The amide hydrogen atoms of the aziridinyl tripeptide are involved in weaker H-bonds than in an epoxide analogon. Furthermore, the characteristic vibrational modes of the peptide backbone were discussed. Chapter 8 reports on the adsorption mechanism of two related anti-leukemia active agents, 6-mercaptopurine (6MP) and 6-mercaptopurine-ribose (6MPR) on a silver colloid. Both molecules adsorb through the N1 and possibly S atom on the metal surface under basic conditions. The SERS spectra recorded for acidic pH values showed that the ribose derivative exhibits a different adsorption behavior compared to the free base. 6MP probably adsorbs on the silver sol through the N9 and N3 atoms, while 6MPR interacts with the surface via the N7 and probably S atoms. Around critical biological concentrations and pH values i.e. at low concentrations and almost neutral condition (pH 7-9), 6MPR interacts with the substrate through both N7 and N1 atoms, possibly forming two differently adsorbed species, while for 6MP only the species adsorbed via N1 was evidenced. / In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden schwingungsspektroskopische und quanten-chemische Untersuchungen an unterschiedlichen Modellsystemen, die an photochemischen Prozessen beteiligt sind, und an verschiedenen Pharmazeutika durchgeführt. Die Methoden der Infrarot- (IR) und Raman-Spektroskopie wurden für die Charakterisierung der Grund-zustandsgeometrie verwendet. Darüber hinaus konnten aus Resonanz-Raman- (RR) Spektren zusätzliche Informationen über den elektronisch angeregten Zustand erhalten werden. Diese aufschlussreichen Aussagen über die elektronisch angeregten Zustände der untersuchten Systeme wurden durch die simultane quantitative Analyse der Resonanz-Raman-Spektren und des Absorptionsspektrums gewonnen. Die Anregungsprofile für die Resonanz-Raman-Streuung und die Absorptionsquerschnitte wurden mittels zeitabhängiger Propagationsmethoden berechnet. Oberflächen-verstärkte Raman-Streu- (SERS) Experimente ermöglichten die Charakterisierung der Wechselwirkungen und Adsorptionsbindungsstellen von Wirkstoffen an Metalloberflächen. Des Weiteren wurden Dichtefunktionaltheorie- (DFT) und PED-Rechnungen durchgeführt, um eine genaue Zuordnung der Schwingungsspektren zu gestatten. CASSCF- und CI-Rechnungen wurden in einzelnen Fällen durchgeführt, um sie mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen für die Potenzialhyperfläche des angeregten Zustands vergleichen zu können. Die Grundlagen der Resonanz-Raman-Spekroskopie wurden ausführlich diskutiert. Dabei wurden die physikalischen Prozesse beschrieben und die mathematischen Techniken, die die Bestimmung der Parameter des angeregten Zustands durch die RR-Intensitätsanalyse ermöglichen, hervorgehoben. Das Modell des Brownian-Oszillators für die Ermittlung der Lösungsmittel-Reorganisations-energie wurde kurz beschrieben. Weiterhin wurden die SERS Verstärkungsmechanismen und Auswahlregeln diskutiert. Der Hartree-Fock-Ansatz zur Berechnung des Grundzustandes sowie die CI- und CASSCF-Methoden wurde erläutert. Das Kapitel endete mit einer kurzen Beschreibung der Grundlagen von DFT-Rechnungen. Im vierten Kapitel wurden die Untersuchungen an einem Modell-Systems (1-hydroxy-2-acetonaphthone HAN), das einen Protonentransferprozess im angeregten Zustand zeigt, dargestellt. Die Streck- und Deformationsmoden des Naphthalinrings und der konjugierten Carbonylgruppe weisen die größten Displacement-Parameter auf, während die O-H-Streckschwingung keine Resonanz-Verstärkung erfährt. Diese Gerüst-schwingungsmoden verringern den Abstand zwischen den Carbonyl- und Hydroxyl-Sauerstoffatomen, was mit einer generellen Umverteilung der Elektronendichte einhergeht. Daher wird der Protonentransferprozess durch die Zunahme der Elektronendichte auf dem Carbonylsauerstoffatom und der gleichzeitigen Abnahme der negativen Ladung auf dem Hydroxylsauerstoffatom gesteuert. Im fünften Kapitel wurden die strukturellen und vibronischen Eigenschaften eines organischen gemischtvalenten Systems, des N,N,N’,N’-tetraphenylphenylenediamine Radikalkations (1+), untersucht. Die Resonanz-Raman-Experimente zeigten, dass mindestens acht Schwingungsmoden stark an den optischen Ladungstransferprozess gekoppelt sind. Diese Franck-Condon aktiven Moden wurden vornehmlich symmetrischen Moden zugeordnet. Die am meisten verstärkte Mode entspricht der symmetrischen Streckschwingung entlang der N-Ar-N-Achse. Jedoch sind auch symmetrische Streckschwingungsmoden der Phenyl- und Phyenylen-Gruppen und Deformationsmoden an dem elektronischen Prozess beteiligt. Der Beitrag dieser symmetrischen Moden zur Reorganisationsenergie dominiert, während die Lösungsmittelreorganisationsenergie nur sehr gering ist. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse beweisen, dass es sich hier um ein symmetrisches delokalisiertes Robin-Day-Class-III-System handelt. Das sechste Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit einer schwingungsspektroskopischen Analyse eines photorefraktiven Thiophen-Derivat-Modellsystems, 2-(N,N-diethylamino)-5(2’,2’-dicyanovinyl)-thiophen. Die Geometrien des Grund- und ersten angeregten Zustands wurden optimiert und die FC Parameter unter Anwendung der CIS Methode berechnet. Diese Rechnungen ergaben, dass der Anteil der zwitterionischen Struktur im angeregten Zustand dominiert. Die Resonanz-Raman-Spektren zeigten, dass mehrere Streckschwingungsmoden entlang der Bindungen, die die Donor- und Akzeptor-Einheiten verknüpfen, und die S-C Streckschwingungsmoden verstärkt wurden. Das siebte Kapitel behandelt die Analyse eines Aziridinyl-Tripeptids, ein Wirkstoff gegen Cystein-Proteasen. Die Schwingungsanalyse ergab eine stärkere Wasserstoffbrückenbindung der Aziridin NH-Gruppe des Aziridinyl-Tripeptids im festen Zustand als in der flüssigen Baueinheit. Die Wasserstoffatome der Amidgruppen des Tripeptids sind an schwächeren Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen als die des Epoxid-Analogons beteiligt. Darüber hinaus wurden die charakteristischen Gerüstschwingungsmoden des Tripeptids diskutiert. Im vorletzten Kapitel wurde der Adsorptionsmechanismus von zwei Anti-Leukämie-Wirkstoffen, 6-Mercaptopurin (6MP) und 6-Mercaptopurin-ribose (6MPR) diskutiert. Unter basischen Bedingungen adsorbieren beide Moleküle über die N1- und S-Atome an der Metalloberfläche. Für biologisch kritischen Konzentrationen und pH-Werten, d.h. für nahezu neutrale Bedingungen (pH-Wert 7-9) und eine geringe Konzentration, wurde festgestellt, dass das 6MPR-Molekül mit dem Substrat sowohl über das N7- als auch N1-Atom wechselwirkt, wobei wahrscheinlich zwei unterschiedlich adsorbierte Spezies vorhanden sind. Im Gegensatz dazu weist das 6MP-Molekül nur eine über das N1-Atom adsorbierte Spezies auf.

Electron spin resonance studies of frustrated quantum spin systemsKamenskyi, Dmytro 24 June 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Since the last few decades frustrated spin systems have attracted much interest. These studies are motivated by the rich variety of their unusual magnetic properties and potential applications. In this thesis, excitation spectra of the weakly coupled dimer system Ba3Cr2O8, the spin-1/2 chain material with distorted diamond structure Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2 (natural mineral azurite), and the quasi-twodimensional antiferromagnet with triangle spin structure Cs2CuBr4 have been studied by means of high-field electron spin resonance. Two pairs of gapped modes corresponding to transitions from a spin-singlet ground state to the first excited triplet state with zero-field energy gaps, of 19.1 and 27 K were observed in Ba3Cr2O8.
The observation of ground-state excitations clearly indicates the presence of a non-secular term allowing these transitions. Our findings are of crucial importance for the interpretation of the field-induced transitions in this material (with critical fields Hc1 = 12.5 T and Hc2 = 23.6 T) in terms of the magnon Bose-Einstein condensation. The natural mineral azurite, Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2, has been studied in magnetic fields up to 50 T, revealing several modes not observed previously. Based on the obtained data, all three critical fields were identified.
A substantial zero-field energy gap, Δ = 9.6 K, has been observed in Cs2CuBr4 above the ordering temperature. It is argued that contrary to the case for the isostructural Cs2CuCl4, the size of the gap can not be explained solely by the uniform Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, but it is rather the result of the geometrical frustration stabilizing the spin-disordered state in Cs2CuBr4 in the close vicinity of the quantum phase transition between a spiral magnetically ordered state and a 2D quantum spin liquid.
