課程概述

This course is intended as an introduction to fundamental concepts in time-dependent quantum mechanics and approximation methods useful in physical chemistry, with an emphasis on descriptions applicable to condensed-phase systems. The lectures will be divided into three parts: 1/3 with focus on matrix mechanics and time-dependent problems, 1/3 with focus on density-matrix formalism and relaxation in open systems, and the last 1/3 with contemporary applications to spectroscopy and quantum dynamical processes in condensed-phase systems.

Planned topics: matrix mechanics, time-dependent Schrödinger equation, time-dependent perturbation theory, density matrix formalism, relaxation, linear response theory, interaction of light with matter, time-domain correlation function description of spectroscopy, excitation energy transfer, electron and proton transfer, time-resolved nonlinear spectroscopy.
 

課程目標
This course aims to introduce fundamental concepts in quantum dynamics that are essential for the understanding of modern chemical dynamics and spectroscopy of molecular systems. Formalisms useful for condensed-phase systems will be emphasized in order to reflect current trends in physical chemistry research, and deep connections between theory and experiments will be illustrated via discussions of recent research works in the class. The goal is to provide a broad background to help students grasp the vast literature regarding dynamical processes and spectroscopy in chemistry and learn to solve dynamical problems in their research. 
課程要求
This course emphasizes hands-on problem solving skills, therefore, working through examples and homework assignments is absolutely essential. You are welcome to work together on the problems, but the final product you turn in should reflect your own understanding of the subject and not something copied from the work of another student. I will be available for after-hours discussions on problem solving.
