On the role of vibrational-electronic couplings in dictating the ultrafast photophysics of molecular dyads
Ultrafast energy and charge transfer driven by coupled vibrational–electronic (“vibronic”) motions is a central topic in much of photochemistry and photophysics. Accurately describing the quantum dynamics requires an exact ... -
Engineering Photon Emission Statistics of Single Nanocrystals: From Quantum to Classical
The development of stable and bright colloidal nanocrystals has long held promise for quantum photonics, optoelectronics, and bioimaging. Although isolated colloidal nanoparticle can be used for single-photon emission,these ... -

Theoretical studies on collective orientational relaxation, solvation dynamics and electron transfer reactions in dense dipolar liquids
In this thesis, a microscopic study of the collective orientational relaxation and its role in the dynamics of solvation and electron transfer reactions in dense dipolar liquids is presented. The origin of collective ... -

Molecular dynamics of the sorption and diffusion behaviour of spherical sorbates in the confined region of zeolites Y and A
The sorbate–zeolite RDFs and sorbate–zeolite energy distribution functions suggest that the sorbates are largely localized inside the cages at the lowest temperature (188 K) studied. At low temperature, the sorbate prefers ... -

Studies of photodimerization of olifins in the solid state and phase trasitions of organic solids
(1) Infrared spectra of the high?temperature phases of dimethylammonium chloride and of the methylammonium tetrachlorometallates show evidence for the presence of an essentially “undistorted” C?H?NH?? ion of C?v symmetry. ... -
Studies on pressed and roll-compacted alkaline iron-electrodes for nickel-iron secondary cells
It is concluded that various sulfide additives employed in this study retard passivation of the iron electrode during discharge and suppress the rate of the HER during charging. The electrodes doped with Bi?S? show minimum ... -
Nanocrystals and nanocrystalline films of metal oxides and related materials
Certain observations and conclusions regarding the investigations presented in Chapters 5 to 9 are described here. The analysis is in relation to the ‘SCOPE OF THE WORK’ indicated in Chapter 1. The present work is mainly ... -
Synthesis, structure and properties of inorganic-organic hybrid compounds
Synthesis, structure, photodimerization, structural transformation and photocatalytic studies have been carried out on a family of cadmium thiosulfate compounds with varying dimensionalities. The observation of unique Cd?S? ...
