Abstract

Students explore a simple solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in the context of understanding femtochemistryl. After a review of the time-independent harmonic oscillator model students study the process of exciting molecules with an ultrafast laser pulse and in a superposition that has time-dependent behavior

  Abstract:
  The motion of atoms in molecules and in the course of reactions occurs on infinitesimal length and time scales, down to the angstrom (0.1 nm or 10^-8 cm) length and femtosecond (10^-15 s) time scales. To observe the behavior of atoms in motion, which is ...
