Abstract:We investigate the dissipative mechanisms of an impurity molecule in crystals using quantum optical master equation. Our unified theory applies generally to polyatomic molecules where several vibrational modes give rise to intramolecular vibrational redistributions. The usual assumption on identical shapes of the nuclear potentials in ground and excited electronic states and the rotating wave approximation have been relaxed, i.e. the vibrational coordinates are different in the ground and excited states, with … Show more
