抄録

<jats:p>A full quantum mechanical calculation is carried out on the first excited state of CH2I2 to model the absorption and emission spectra and examine the photodissociation dynamics from a time dependent point of view. The dissociation at 355 nm is direct in the sense that the wave packet does not revisit the Franck–Condon region. The initial motion of the excited molecule is mainly along the CI2 symmetric stretch coordinate while simultaneously spreading in the antisymmetric stretch coordinate. The molecule then dissociates along a C–I ‘‘local’’ mode; no I2 can be formed in this energy region. Vibrationally hot CH2I radical in the C–I mode is predicted. The model is in good agreement with available experimental results. A simple and intuitive method is presented to construct model potential energy surfaces for two chromophore systems from the potential energy surface and information known for the corresponding single chromophore. CH3I and CH2I2 are used as numerical illustrations.</jats:p>
