Dynamics of a pulse-driven dye-molecule

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

A dynamical model for the absorption of laserlight by an organic dye-molecule and its radiative and non radiative relaxation is presented. It leads to a hierarchy of Heisenberg equations of motion for the energy expectation values. Retaining only terms up to second order in the optical coupling-constant, the hierarchy can be closed. Numerical solutions for the molecular as well as the photon and phonon dynamics are presented.
