An optimized semiclassical approximation for vibrational response functions

Abstract: The observables of multidimensional infrared spectroscopy may be calculated from nonlinear vibrational response functions. Fully quantum dynamical calculations of vibrational response functions are generally impractical, while completely classical calculations are qualitatively incorrect at long times. These challenges motivate the development of semiclassical approximations to quantum mechanics, which use classical mechanical information to reconstruct quantum effects. The mean-trajectory (MT) approximation i… Show more

“…The OMT approximation 28,[45][46][47] was developed to improve the dependence on the waiting time of the thirdorder response function calculated with the MT approximation. 28,33,41 The third-order response function in both approximations is evaluated from semiclassical paths consisting of classical trajectories linked by discontinuous transitions.…”

“…28,33,41 The third-order response function in both approximations is evaluated from semiclassical paths consisting of classical trajectories linked by discontinuous transitions. At four classical states along the path, corresponding to the radiation-matter interactions, phase-space information is collected to compute the response function.…”
