A molecular surface defined as an isosurface of the valence repulsion energy may be hard or soft with respect to probe penetration. As a probe, the helium atom has been chosen. In addition, the Pauli exclusion principle makes the electronic structure change when the probe pushes the molecule (at a fixed positions of its nuclei). This results in a HOMO-LUMO gap dependence on the probe site on the isosurface. A smaller gap at a given probe position reflects a larger reactivity of the site with respect to the ionic dissociation.

AbstractVibronic coupling is a central issue in molecular spectroscopy. Here we investigate vibronic coupling within a single pentacene molecule in real space by imaging the spatial distribution of single-molecule electroluminescence via highly localized excitation of tunneling electrons in a controlled plasmonic junction. The observed two-spot orientation for certain vibronic-state imaging is found to be evidently different from the purely electronic 0–0 transition, rotated by 90°, which reflects the change in the transition dipole orientation from along the molecular short axis to the long axis. Such a change reveals the occurrence of strong vibronic coupling associated with a large Herzberg–Teller contribution, going beyond the conventional Franck–Condon picture. The emergence of large vibration-induced transition charges oscillating along the long axis is found to originate from the strong dynamic perturbation of the anti-symmetric vibration on those carbon atoms with large transition density populations during electronic transitions.

A systematic study has been made of the influence of two factors on the synthesis of titanium dioxide gels: (i) the acidity of the reaction medium and (ii) the presence of a solvent. This study demonstrates that, in an aqueous acid medium, the development of textural properties is related to the concentration of free hydrogen ions. The presence in an acid reaction medium of a solvent, such as butanol or benzene, of low dielectric constant, inhibits the development of the structural properties by lowering the ionic dissociation of the acid. Our results provide an explanation for the apparently divergent measurements in the literature.
