Nuclear and electronic dynamics in ultrafast photoinduced charge separation — •Carlo Andrea Rozzi — CNR-NANO, Modena, Italy

The sub-ps dynamics of photoinduced charge separation is studied in several prototypical photovoltaic materials by combining TDDFT and molecular dynamics simulations. The results are validated against high time resolution pump-probe spectroscopy, and ultrafast electron diffraction. The role of coherent coupling between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom is shown to be of key importance in triggering charge delocalization and transfer both in covalently bonded molecules[1] and non-bonded bulk heterojunctions[2]. The possible exploitation of our findings in order to design and synthesize novel molecular scaffolds[3] for photovoltaic applications is discussed. Further work in progress on ultrafast photoexcitation of polymer-copolymer aggregates and perovskites is presented.
