Exploring Bethe-Salpeter Excited-State Dipoles: The Challenging Case of Increasingly Long Push-Pull Oligomers (vol 14, pg 3727, 2023)
The journal of physical chemistry letters(2023)
摘要
The change of molecular dipole moment induced by photon absorption is key to interpret the measured optical spectra. Except for compact molecules, time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) remains the only theory allowing to quickly predict excited-state dipoles (mu(ES)), albeit with a strong dependency on the selected exchangecorrelation functional. This Letter presents the first assessment of the performances of the many-body Green's function Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) formalism for the evaluation of the mu(ES). We explore increasingly long push-pull oligomers as they present an excited-state nature evolving with system size. This work shows that BSE's mu(ES) do present the same evolution with oligomeric length as their CC2 and CCSD counterparts, with a dependency on the starting exchange-correlation functional that is strongly decreased as compared to TDDFT. This Letter demonstrates that BSE is a valuable alternative to TD-DFT for properties related to the excited-state density and not only for transition energies and oscillator strengths.
