Computational tools will be implemented for the design and analysis of measurements involving multiple ultrafast optical and x-ray pulses. <br><br><b>(C) Energy and charge separation in photosynthetic complexes studied by nonlinear spectroscopy</b> <br>Developing and applying time-dependent density functional, nonequilibrium Green’s Function techniques and exciton models for computing electronic excitations of molecular assemblies, light harvesting complexes and current-carrying molecules. Connection is made to quantum information processing and manipulation. <br><br><b>(D) Nonlinear Spectroscopy with Quantum Optical Fields</b> <br>New optical signals which use entangled photons, pulse shaping, and coherent control algorithms are designed and simulated for probing molecular relaxations and exciton transport.</blockquote><b>Requirements</b> Ph.D. is required.
