Seminar: Photoinduced Charge Transfer Dynamics in the Condensed Phase

Event time: 
September 7, 2022 - 4:00pm to 5:30pm

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory (SCL) See map
Event description: 

Join Yale Chemistry for a seminar with Xiang Sun, Assistant Professor, NYU Shanghai.

Photoinduced charge transfer (CT) plays a key role in the conversion of solar energy, especially in organic photovoltaic materials. In this talk, Professor Sun will introduce three categories of semiclassical theories for understanding such dynamical processes, including time-independent and time-dependent rate theories based on the equilibrium and nonequilibrium Fermi’s golden rule (E/NE-FGR), respectively, as well as the various semiclassical mapping dynamics for nonadiabatic dynamics.

This seminar is generously sponsored by the Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman Memorial Fund.
