Abstract

Light induced chemical transformations, called photochemical reactions, are ubiquitous in nature. These processes are initiated by the absorption of a photon, that promotes the molecule into an excited state, where the reaction takes place.

Keywords

Potential Energy Surface Laser Field Electronic Structure Calculation Conical Intersection Photochemical Process 
These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
