AbstractPorphyrins are a promising class of materials for optical limiting applications, and in the condensed phase solvent effects have been shown to be significant. We report results with a method designed to simulate the effects of discrete solvent molecules, namely the effective fragment potential (EFP) approach which has been implemented for use in ab initio calculations. Further, a simulated annealing (SA) method has been implemented with the EFP solvation model in an attempt to solve the problem of multiple minima in clusters of molecules. The results with this method indicate some success on models of aqueous formamide and aqueous glutamic acid. Ab initio calculations can now be carried out on porphyrins, and the solvation methods are being updated for their use on these systems.

ABSTRACTIn this work the release of atomic hydrogen from SiNx:H films is investigated. Thermal treatment as well as UV-illumination induces the formation of H2, increasing the tensile stress in the film. N-rich SiNx:H films release hydrogen only by UV-illumination, indicating involvement of charge trapping. Ab initio calculations show a possible reaction path for the release and diffusion of protons that also explain the diffusion of hydrogen into Si substrates.

Precise and accurate measurements of the Q branch lines of D2 in D2 and D2–He mixtures at several temperatures and low densities reveal a regular broadening at very low densities but only if allowance is made for departures from the soft-collision model. Above about 2 amagat the broadening becomes anomalous and is consistent with earlier observations. Because of the anomalies, a meaningful comparison between broadening and shifting coefficientsand ab initio calculations was not possible. Diffusion constants, as extracted from the data for mixtures, allow us to establish an empirical relation between this diffusion constant and those for pure D2 and for D2 infinitely diluted in He.PACS Nos. 33.70Jg and 33.70-W
