Light-Matter Interactions in Molecular Photochemistry
Abstract: Molecular photochemistry explores the ways of molecules interaction with light, absorb photons, and excited‐state processes, and ultimately conversion of photon energy into chemical change. Core concepts of this innovative and relevant field are matter interaction like electronic, vibrational, and rotational transitions; non‐adiabatic couplings; energy & electron transfer; and light–matter coupling in weak and strong regimes. This article briefly surveys the multiplicity of these interactions, from the fundamentals of photon absorption …
