The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation

∂ i Ψ(q, r, t) = Hˆ Ψ(q, r, t) (1) ~∂t If the Hamiltonian is time-independent, formal solution   Ψ(t) = exp iHtˆ Ψ(0) (2) − Phase factor Further, if Hˆ is time-independent we can write

−iωi t Ψ(x, t) = Ψi (x)e (3) and ∂ i Ψ(x, t) = ω Ψ (x)e−iωi t (4) ~∂t ~ i i By comparison with the TDSE, Ψi are solutions to the time-independent Schrödinger equation ˆ HΨi = Ei Ψi = ~ωi Ψi (5)

3 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation

Ψi is a Stationary State as expectation values (properties) are time-independent

ˆ ˆ iωi t −iωi t ˆ O = Ψi O Ψi e e = Ψi O Ψi (6) h i h | | i h | | i

If wavefunction is a superposition of stationary states,

X −iωi t χ(x, t) = ci Ψi (x)e (7) i now, ˆ X X ∗ i(ωi −ωj )t O (t) = i~ ci cj Ψi O Ψj e (8) h i − h | | i i j An expectation value changes with time and depends on the initial function (ci coefficients). A non-stationary wavefunction is called a WAVEPACKET.

The Clamped Nucleus Hamiltonian For a given nuclear configuration q, if we clamp the nuclei in place then the electronic Hamiltonian can be written:

Ne Ne Nn Ne 2 Nn 2 ˆ X 1 2 X X Zae X e X ZaZbe Hel = i + + (9) −2me ∇ − 4π0ria 4π0rij 4π0Rab i=1 i=1 a=1 i,j=1 a,b=1

5 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation

The clamped nucleus Hamiltonian can be solved to provide the electronic wavefunctions at a specific nuclear configuration. This is what is done in . ˆ Helψi (r; q) = Ei ψi (r; q) (11)

i.e. the wavefunction is a function of electronic coordinates but depends parametrically on the nuclear coordinates. Return to full TDSE with Hamiltonian ˆ ˆ ˆ H = TN + Hel (12)

and write the full wavefunction as a product of nuclear and electronic parts where the electronic function is a solution of the clamped nucleus Hamiltonian:

Ψ(q, r, t) = χ(q, t)ψ(r; q) (13)

This is an adiabatic separation of variables

6 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures The Nuclear Schrödinger Equation

First remove the electronic motion from the TDSE. ∂ i~ Ψ = Hˆ Ψ (14) ∂t | i | i ∂ χ ˆ ˆ  i~ ψ | i = TN + Hel χ ψ (15) | i ∂t | i | i Multiply by ψ and integrate over the electronic coordinates h | ∂ i~ χ = ( ψ TN ψ + V (q)) χ (16) ∂t | i h | | i | i using the potential function

7 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures To analyse KE function, use a simple form of the KEO

X 1 ∂2 Tˆ = (18) N 2M ∂q2 α − α α

with Mα the nuclear mass. Remembering that the electronic functions depend on the nuclear coordinate, a single term of this KEO can be written 1  ∂2 ∂ ∂ ∂2  ψ TN ψ = ψ ψ + 2 ψ ψ + (19) h | | i −2M h |∂q2 i h |∂q i∂q ∂q2 And as the derivative operator ∂/∂q is anti-hermitian ∂ ψ ψ = 0 (20) h |∂q i we obtain 1  ∂2 ∂2  ψ TN ψ = ψ ψ + (21) h | | i −2M h |∂q2 i ∂q2

8 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures

Ignoring the first term on the RHS, which is (hopefully) small

ψ TN ψ TN (22) h | | i ≈

we obtain the TDSE in the Adiabatic Approximation: ∂ i~ χ = (TN + V (q)) χ (23) ∂t | i | i

This is the basic picture used in chemistry that the nuclear and electronic motions can be separated. The nuclei then move over a potential surface provided by the electrons that do not depend on the electronic motion, but only on their position. This is usually referred to as the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation. Sometimes, however, B-O Approx is used when the scalar term 2 ψ ∂ ψ is included. Most authors call this latter approximation the h | ∂q2 i Born-Huang Approximation.

10 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures TDSE: The Complete Solution A full solution requires a multi-configurational ansatz. Start by using Born representation X Ψ(q, r) = χi (q)ψi (r; q) , (24) i where electronic functions are all the solutions to clamped nucleus Hamiltonian Eq. (11). The TDSE is now

One term of the KE operator in the electronic basis is now

1  ∂2 ∂ ∂ ∂2  ψj TN ψi = ψj ψi + 2 ψj ψi + (28) h | | i −2M h |∂q2 i h |∂q i∂q ∂q2

which can be written in terms of the scalar and vector derivative couplings, G and F

Defining the non-adiabatic operator

∂ X i~ χj = [(TN + Vj ) δji Λji ] χi (33) ∂t | i − | i i

Finally, using the fact that

G = ( F) + F F (34) ∇ · · Eq. (33) can be written:   1 2 ∂χ ( 1 + F) + V χ = i~ , (35) −2M ∇ ∂t

13 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures The Adiabatic Picture

F Assuming M 0 ≈ h i ∂χ Tˆ + V χ = i (36) n ~ ∂t and we recover the adiabatic TDSE where the nuclei move over a single potential energy surface, V , which can be obtained from quantum chemistry calculations. An expression for the derivative coupling in terms of the energy of the states involved can be obtained from

ψi Hel ψj = ψi Hel ψj + ψi Hel ψj + ψi Hel ψj (37) ∇h | | i h∇ | | i h |∇ | i h | |∇ i As we are using the adiabatic basis,

ψi Hel ψj = 0 (38) ∇h | | i

14 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures

And as Hψi = Vi ψi , we obtain

 ˆ  ψi ∇H ψj h | el | i Fij = for i = j . (39) Vj Vi 6 −

Compare this to the Hellman-Feymann expression to the derivative of a potential ψi Hel ψi = ψi Hel ψi (40) ∇h | | i h |∇ | i and we see this is a “coupling force”. The derivative coupling is singular if 2 potential surfaces become degenerate.

15 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Adiabatic / Diabatic Pictures The Diabatic Picture

To remove these singularities, we first separate out a group of coupled states from the rest (group B.O. approximation).

For a 2-state system, the diabatic potentials are

 W W  W = 11 12 (49) W12 W22

Eigenvalues of diabatic potential matrix are adiabatic PES: q 1 1 2 2 V± = (W11 + W22) ∆W + 4W (50) 2 ± 2 12

Surfaces degenerate at q0 if

∆W = W22 W11 = 0 (51) − W12 = 0 (52)

18 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Conical Intersections Two conditions need to be met for degeneracy. Impossible if only 1 coordninate. Hence in a 1D system states that have non-zero coupling do not meet and form an avoided crossing.

In multi-dimensional systems, Eqs. (51,52) can be satisfied. Diabatic potential matrix elements are all potential like functions so can be represented by a Taylor expansion around a point such as q0

2 X ∂Wij X 1 ∂ Wij Wij = Wij (q0)+ (qα q0)+ (qα q0)(qβ q0)+... ∂qα − 2 ∂qαqβ − − α q=q0 α,β q=q0 (53) Move to q0 where the states 1 and 2 are degenerate. If at this (d) (a) | i | i point we take ψi = ψi then

At q0, E1 = E2 = E and so expanding to first order:

  ~ ! E 0 ~κ1 ~r λ ~r W = + ~ · · (56) 0 E λ ~r ~κ2 ~r · ·

where rα = qα q0,α and λ, κi vectors of potential derivatives. As the − diabatic and adiabatic electronic functions are equal at q0, the on-diagonal derivative is the gradient of the potential

NB need independent ∆W and W12. Hence non-crossing rule in diatomics. Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Conical Intersections The Importance of Symmetry

Symmetry plays an important role as conical intersections often occur at nuclear configurations with high symmetry. When this happens, the matrix elements

∂Hel ψi Hel ψj and ψi ψj h | | i h | ∂qα | i will be zero if the integrand is not totally symmetric wrt the point group of the . As the H is always totally symmetric,

ψi Hel ψj = 0 if Γi Γj A1 (59) h | | i 6 ⊗ ⊃ ∂Hel ψi ψj = 0 if Γi Γj Γα A1 (60) h | ∂qα | i 6 ⊗ ⊗ ⊃

where A1 represents the totally symmetric irrep

23 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Conical Intersections

In all cases

I κα,i = 0 only for Γα A1 6 ⊃ If the electronic states have different symmetries

I λα = 0 only for Γα = Γi Γj 6 ⊗

For example in pyrazine, molecule is D2h, states S1(B3u), S2(B2u) and as B2u B3u = B1g only modes of this symmetry can couple the ⊗ states (there is only 1 of these ν10a). There are four modes with Ag symmetry that have non-zero κ values. The GD and DCP are thus independent and a conical intersection must occur.

24 / 103 Non-Adiabatic Dynamics The Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation Conical Intersections

Some point groups (non-Abelian) have degenerate representations. These impose further constraints on relationships between the values of κ and λ.

For example, in many point groups with an E irrep, E e A1 and the doubly degenerate electronic states are coupled by⊗ doubly⊃ degenerate vibrations. This is the E e Jahn-Teller case and ⊗ κ1 = κ2 = λ. − Higher order terms are goverened by similar relationships. For a complete analysis of the JT problem see Viel and Eisfeld JCP (04) 120: 4603. If no symmetry is present a CoIn can form if the modes involved in the ~κ and ~λ happen to be independent. These are called accidental CoIn in contrast to symmetry induced CoIn.
