We have investigated the photodissociation dynamics of NaI(H(2)O)(n) [n = 1-4] clusters using the molecular dynamics with quantum transitions method and a quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics description of NaI(H(2)O)(n), which involves a semiempirical valence-bond approach to describe the NaI electronic structure and classical solvent-solvent and solute ...

Sodium iodide has long been a paradigm for ionic and covalent curve crossing and ultrafast nonadiabatic dynamics, and our interest lies in the influence of solvation on this process. The NaI(H2O)n photodissociation dynamics are simulated with the molecular dynamics with quantum transitions method. A quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) descriptio ...
