Nonadiabatic Coupling in Trajectory Surface Hopping: Accurate Time Derivative Couplings by the Curvature-Driven Approximation

Xiaorui Zhao,
Isabella C. D. Merritt,
Ruiqing Lei
et al.

Abstract: Trajectory surface hopping (TSH) is a widely used mixed quantum-classical dynamics method that is used to simulate molecular dynamics with multiple electronic states. In TSH, timederivative coupling is employed to propagate the electronic coefficients and in that way to determine when the electronic state on which the nuclear trajectory is propagated switches. In this work, we discuss nonadiabatic TSH dynamics algorithms employing the curvature-driven approximation and overlap-based time derivative couplings, … Show more

“…Both xxMD datasets are structured via a temporal split method, partitioning training and testing data based on trajectory timesteps. We want to emphasize that xxMD datasets do not involve nonadiabatic coupling vectors (NACs) for two reasons: first, the advances in the field of nonadiabatic dynamics have enabled NAC-free nonadiabatic dynamics simulations, for example, curvature-driven dynamics 20 24 . Second, the purpose of the current work is to provide a database which includes a wide nuclear configuration space for which the energies and gradients of multiple electronic states are available.…”

“…A recent survey of six photochemical reactions compared results between κFS-TSH-EDC and FS-TSH-EDC. , (Notice that the apparently inaccurate curvature-driven dynamics results in ref were due to a programming error–not to deficiencies in the method; this was corrected in ref .) Table summarizes the final ground-state and excited-state populations at the end of the simulation for κFS-TSH-EDC and FS-TSH-EDC.…”

“…Employing overlap integrals to approximate TDCs is preferable to using eq because it alleviates the trivial crossing problem. The simplest approximation to the TDC from an overlap integral is the Hammes-Schiffer–Tully scheme: T I J MCH true( t + 1 2 normalΔ t true) = S I J MCH false( t , t + normalΔ t false) S J I MCH false( t , t + normalΔ t false) 2 Δ t More accurate schemes are also available, for example, the norm-preserving interpolation scheme of Meek and Levine . We refer the interested reader to ref for a summary of available schemes.…”
