Slower tunneling weakens transition polarizability
Researchers used CCSD(T)//MP2 potentials and a kinetic model to calculate transition matrix elements for hydrogen peroxide and related compounds. The study found that slower tunneling between chiral wells reduces transition polarizability.
- Field
- new materials
- What they did
- Researchers studied how quantum tunneling affects the transition polarizability of hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen disulfide, and hydrogen diselenide molecules.
- Why it matters
- Understanding this connection helps better control the properties of new materials based on these compounds.
