摘要:

基态分子的X射线衍射产生了它们电荷密度的图像,因此时间分辨的X射线衍射可以监测原子核的运动。然而,由于核心电子的压倒性背景贡献,光激发时激发价电子的密度变化几乎不能用常规衍射技术监测。我们提出了一种非线性X射线技术,使新的自由电子激光源,它提供了一个空间的价电子激发的电子密度图像。该技术采用可见光泵和宽带X射线衍射脉冲进行和频产生,产生跃迁电荷密度的快照,代表光学激发时的电子密度变化。该技术说明了从头计算模拟的过渡电荷密度成像的光诱导电子动力学在供体/受体取代的芪。

英文摘要:

X-ray diffraction from molecules in the ground state produces an image of their charge density, and time-resolved X-ray diffraction can thus monitor the motion of the nuclei. However, the density change of excited valence electrons upon optical excitation can barely be monitored with regular diffraction techniques due to the overwhelming background contribution of the core electrons. We present a nonlinear X-ray technique made possible by novel free electron laser sources, which provides a spatial electron density image of valence electron excitations. The technique, sum frequency generation carried out with a visible pump and a broadband X-ray diffraction pulse, yields snapshots of the transition charge densities, which represent the electron density variations upon optical excitation. The technique is illustrated by ab initio simulations of transition charge density imaging for the optically induced electronic dynamics in a donor/acceptor substituted stilbene.
