Research Abstract |
The main purpose of this research project was to develop a theory for quantum control of chemical reaction dynamics. For this purpose, we have concentrated ourselves to three subjects : 1) control of nuclear wave packets by polarized laser lights, 2) quantum control of molecular orientation and 3) exact solutions of both nuclear and electronic wave packet motion. The results of these subjects are summarized as follows. 1. Control of nuclear wave packets by polarized laser pulses We have developed a quantum control theory of reactions of multidimensional system by take into account effects of photon-polarization. This theory has been applied to isomerization of hydrogen cyanide induced by two linearly polarized laser pulses and has proved that such polarized laser pulses are effectively promote rates of the isomerization. Such double polarized pulses are also used to control chemically interesting reactions, such as selective preparation of enantiomers from racemic body. 2. Quantum control

of molecular orientation It is very important to orient molecules in gas phase in order to control gas-phase reactions. We have developed a theory of molecular orientation, which is based on interferences between dipole transitions and non resonant Raman scattering. The variables are frequencies ω and 2ω of two-photon fields, its phase differences and amplitudes of the photon fields. This theory has been applied to HCN by performing abinitio MO calculation of dipole moment and polarizability functions. Effects of rotations are taken into account. 3. Exact solutions of both nuclear and electronic wave packet motion In order to describe ultra short dynamics of molecules under intense pulse laser, which brings about Coulomb explosions, it is essential to treat both electrons and nuclei as wave packets. We have succeeded in exactly solving time-dependent Schroedinger equation of a simple diatomic molecules in terms of wave packets. This is base on a dual transformation to avoid divergence of energy at critical points. Less
