Abstract

Motivated by the recent discovery of new diffuse interstellar bands and results from laboratory experiments, ab initio quantum chemistry calculations are carried out for the lowest six electronic states of naphthalene and anthracene radical cations. The calculated adiabatic electronic energies are utilized to construct suitable diabatic electronic Hamiltonians in order to perform nuclear dynamics studies in Part II. Complex entanglement of the electronic states is established for both the radical cations and the coupling surfaces among them are also derived in accordance with the symmetry selection rules. Critical examination of the coupling parameters of the Hamiltonian suggests that 29 (out of 48) and 31 (out of 66) vibrational modes are relevant in the nuclear dynamics in the six lowest electronic states of naphthalene and anthracene radical cations, respectively.

To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
