An artificial molecular switch that mimics the visual pigment and completes its photocycle in picoseconds (2008)

Sinicropi, Adalgisa, Martin, Elena, Ryazantsev, Mikhail, Helbing, Jan, Briand, Julien, Sharma, Divya, ...

Single mols. that act as light-energy transducers (e.g., converting the energy of a photon into at.-level mech. motion) are examples of minimal mol. devices. Here, we focus on a mol. switch designed...

Structure of the conical intersections driving the cis-trans photoisomerization of conjugated molecules (2002)

Sampedro Ruiz,Diego, Cembran,Alessandro, Garavelli,Marco, Olivucci,Massimo, Fuß,Werner

High-level ab initio calculations show that the singlet photochemical cis-trans isomerization of organic molecules under isolated conditions can occur according to two distinct mechanisms. These...

Structure of the Conical Intersections Driving the cis–trans Photoisomerization of Conjugated Molecules¶ (2002)

Diego Sampedro Ruiz, Alessandro Cembran, Marco Garavelli, Massimo Olivucci, Werner Fuß

High-level ab initio calculations show that the singlet photochemical cis–trans isomerization of organic molecules under isolated conditions can occur according to two distinct mechanisms. These...

EXCITED-STATE DYNAMICS OF SINGLE DNA AND RNA BASES IN SOLUTION (2002)

Pecourt, Jean-Marc L., Peon, Jorge, Malone, Rosalie, Kohler, Bern, Ismail, Nina, Blancafort, Lluis, ...

Computer simulation of photoinduced molecular motion and reactivity (2002)

Marco Garavelli, Fernando Bernardi, Michael A. Roob, Massimo Olivucci

The use of the computer to simulate light induced chemical processes has given access to a detailed description of the molecular motion and mechanism underlying the reactivity of organic and...

THE ROLE OF CONICAL INTERSECTIONS IN PHOTOCHEMISTRY, ELECTRONIC ENERGY TRANSFER AND ELECTRON TRANSFER (2000)

Robb, Michael, Bearpark, Michael J., Jolibois, Franck, Sanchez-Galvez, Adelaida, Hunt, Patricia, Olivucci, Massimo, ...

Computational evidence in favor of a two-state, two-mode model of the retinal chromophore photoisomerization

González-Luque, Remedios, Garavelli, Marco, Bernardi, Fernando, Merchán, Manuela, Robb, Michael A., Olivucci, Massimo

In this paper we use ab initio multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory to establish the intrinsic photoisomerization path model of retinal chromophores. This is accomplished by...

Structure, initial excited-state relaxation, and energy storage of rhodopsin resolved at the multiconfigurational perturbation theory level

Andruniów, Tadeusz, Ferré, Nicolas, Olivucci, Massimo

We demonstrate that a “brute force” quantum chemical calculation based on an ab initio multiconfigurational second order perturbation theory approach implemented in a quantum mechanics/molecular...

The retinal chromophore/chloride ion pair: Structure of the photoisomerization path and interplay of charge transfer and covalent states

Cembran, Alessandro, Bernardi, Fernando, Olivucci, Massimo, Garavelli, Marco

Ab initio multireference second-order perturbation theory computations are used to explore the photochemical behavior of two ion pairs constituted by a chloride counterion interacting with either a...

The color of rhodopsins at the ab initio multiconfigurational perturbation theory resolution

Coto, Pedro B., Strambi, Angela, Ferré, Nicolas, Olivucci, Massimo

We demonstrate that “brute force” quantum-mechanics/molecular-mechanics computations based on ab initio (i.e., first principles) multiconfigurational perturbation theory can reproduce the...

Tracking the excited-state time evolution of the visual pigment with multiconfigurational quantum chemistry

Frutos, Luis Manuel, Andruniów, Tadeusz, Santoro, Fabrizio, Ferré, Nicolas, Olivucci, Massimo

The primary event that initiates vision is the photoinduced isomerization of retinal in the visual pigment rhodopsin (Rh). Here, we use a scaled quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics potential that...
