Electronic and Vibrational Manifold of Tetracyanoethylene-Chloronaphthalene Charge Transfer Complex in Solution: Insights from TD-DFT and Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics.

ABSTRACT: The interplay between light absorption and the molecular environment has a central role in the observed photophysics of a wide range of photoinduced chemical and biological phenomena. The understanding of the interplay between vibrational and electronic transitions is the focus of this work, since it can provide a rationale to tune the optical properties of charge transfer (CT) materials used for technological applications. A clear description of these processes poses a nontrivial challenge from both the theoretical and experimental points of view, where the main issue is how to accurately describe and probe drastic changes in the electronic structure and the ultrafast molecular relaxation and dynamics. In this work we focused on the intermolecular CT reaction that occurs upon photon absor
