  abstract  = {Time-resolved spectroscopic studies of energy transfer between molecules in solution form a basis for both, our understanding of fundamental natural processes like photosynthesis as well as directed synthetic approaches to optimize organic opto-electronic devices. Here, coherent two-dimensional (2D) spectroscopy opens up new possibilities, as it reveals the correlation between absorption and emission frequency and hence the full cause-and-effect chain. In this thesis two optical setups were developed and implemented, permitting the recording of electronic 2D spectra in the visible and in the hitherto unexplored ultraviolet spectral range. Both designs rely on the exclusive manipulation of beam pairs, which reduces the signal modulation to the difference between the transition frequency of the system and the laser frequency. Thus - as has been shown experimentally and theoretically - the timing precision as well as mechanical stability requirements are greatly reduced, from fractions of the oscillation period of the exciting light wave to fractions of the pulse duration. Two-dimensional spectroscopy and femtosecond transient absorption (TA) as well as different theoretical approaches and simulation models were then applied to coupled multichromophore systems of increasing complexity. Perylene bisimide-perylene monoimide dyads were investigated in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Frank W{\"u}rthner and Prof. Dr. Bernd Engels at the University of W{\"u}rzburg. In these simplest systems studied, global analysis of six different TA experiments unequivocally revealed an ultrafast interchromophoric energy transfer in the 100 fs range. Comparison between the obtained transfer rates and the predictions of F{\"o}rster theory suggest a breakdown of this point-transition-dipole-based picture at the donor-acceptor distances realized in our compounds. Furthermore, a model including conformational changes and an interchromophoric charge transfer has been derived to consistently describe the observed pico- to nanosecond dynamics and fluorescence quantum yields. A second collaboration with Prof. Dr. Gregory Scholes (University of Toronto, Canada) and Prof. Dr. Paul Burn (University of Queensland, Australia) addressed the photophysics of a series of uorene-carbazole dendrimers. Here, a combination of 2D-UV spectroscopy and femtosecond ansiotropy decay experiments revealed the initial delocalization of the excited state wave function that saturates with the second generation. In room temperature solution, disorder-induced localization takes place on the time scales comparable to our instrument response, i.e. 100 fs, followed by energy transfer via incoherent hopping processes. Lastly, in tubular zinc chlorin aggregates, semi-synthetic analogues of natural lightharvesting antennae that had again been synthesized in the group of Prof. Dr. Frank W{\"u}rthner, the interchromophoric coupling is so strong that coherently coupled domains prevail even at room temperature. From an analysis of intensity-dependent TA measurements the dimensions of these domains, the exciton delocalization length, could be determined to span 5-20 monomers. In addition, 2D spectra uncovered efficient energy transfer between neighboring domains, i.e. ultrafast exciton diffusion.},

  abstract  = {In the experiments presented in this work, third-order, time-resolved spectroscopy was applied to the disentanglement of nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom in polyatomic molecules. The motivation for approaching this problem was given by the decisive role that the coupling of nuclear and electronic dynamics plays in the mechanism of photochemical reactions and photobiological processes. In order to approach this complex problem, different strategies within the framework of time-resolved, four-wave mixing spectroscopy were developed that allowed for the dynamic as well as the energetic aspects of vibronic coupling in non-radiative transitions of polyatomic molecules to be addressed. This was achieved by utilizing the influence of optical as well as Raman resonances on four-wave mixing processes. These resonance effects on third-order, optical processes allow for a high selectivity to be attained with respect to the interrogation of specific aspects of molecular dynamics. The development of different strategies within the framework of time-resolved, four-wave mixing spectroscopy for addressing the problem of vibronic coupling began with the experiments on gaseous iodine. This simple, well investigated molecular system was chosen in order to unambiguously characterize the effect of Raman resonances on four-wave mixing processes. A time-resolved degenerative four-wave mixing (DFWM) experiment was carried out on gaseous iodine that allowed for the dynamics of coherent Stokes Raman scattering (CSRS) as well as a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) to be observed parallel to the dynamics of a DFWM process at different spectral positions of the FWM signal. Here, the state-selectivity of these different FWM processes manifests itself in the vibrational wave packet dynamics on different electronic potentials of iodine. It could be shown that Raman resonances determine the selectivity with which these FWM processes prepare and interrogate nuclear dynamics in different electronic states. With the insight gained into the relevance of Raman resonant processes in FWM spectroscopy, an experimental scheme was devised that utilizes this effect to selectively interrogate the dynamics of a specific vibrational mode within a polyatomic molecule during a radiationless electronic transition. Here, a CARS process was employed to selectively probe specific vibrational modes of a molecular system by variably tuning the energy difference between the lasers involved in the CARS process to be in Raman resonance with the vibrational energy spacing of a particular vibrational mode. Using this aspect of a tunable resonance enhancement within a CARS scheme, this optical process was incorporated in a time-resolved pump-probe experiment as a mode-selective probe mechanism. This type of experimental configuration, that employs four pulsed laser fields, was classified as a pump-CARS scheme. Here, a laser pulse independent of the CARS process initiates the molecular dynamics that are interrogated selectively with respect to the vibrational mode of the system through the simultaneous interaction of the three pulsed fields involved in the CARS process. Time-resolution on a femtosecond timescale is achieved by introducing a time delay between the independent pump laser and the laser pulses of the CARS process. The experimental configuration of a pump-CARS scheme was applied to the study of the nuclear dynamics involved in the radiationless electronic transition between the first excited singlet state (S1) and the electronic ground state (S0) of all-trans-b-carotene. The mode-selective CARS probe allowed for the characteristic timescale with which specific vibrational modes are repopulated in the S0 state to be determined. From the varying repopulation times of specific vibrational modes, a mechanism with which the full set of vibrational states of the S0 potential are repopulated subsequent to the internal conversion process could be postulated. Most importantly, the form of nuclear motion that primarily funnels the population between the two electronic states could be identified as the C=C symmetric symmetric stretch mode in the polyene backbone of b-carotene. With this, the reaction coordinate of this radiationless electronic transition could be identified. The experiment shows, that the CARS probe is capable of determining the nuclear motion coupled to a radiationless electronic transition in complex polyatomic systems. The S1/S0 internal conversion process in b-carotene was further investigated with time-resolved transient gratings. Here, the energetic aspects of a non-adiabatic transition was addressed by determining the influence of the vibrational energy on the rate of this internal conversion. In order to compare the rate of internal conversion taking place out of vibrational ground state modes versus this transition initiating out of vibrationally hot modes, the strategy of shifting the probe mechanism in the transient grating scheme to spectral positions within and out of the red flank of the S1 absorption profile was pursued. The interrogation of different vibrational states was verified by determining the degree of vibrational cooling, taking place parallel to the internal conversion process. With this strategy, it could be shown that vibrationally hot states contribute to the internal conversion with a higher rate than vibrational ground state modes. In summary, different third-order, optical processes in the framework of time-resolved FWM were applied to the study of non-adiabatic dynamics in polyatomic molecules. By utilizing the effect of optical as well as Raman resonances on different FWM processes, it could be shown that third-order, time-resolved spectroscopy is a powerful tool for gaining insight into complex molecular dynamics such as vibronic coupling. The experiments presented in this work showed that the CARS process, as a mode-selective probe in time-resolved experiments, is capable of disentangling nuclear and electronic dynamics.},

  abstract  = {The present studies which have been performed in the work-group C-2 (Prof. W. Kiefer) within the program of the Sonderforschungsbereichs 347, deal with the FT-Raman and -IR spectroscopy on new organometallic complexes, synthesized in the work-groups B-2 (Prof. W. Malisch), B-3 (Prof. W. A. Schenk), D-1 (Prof. H. Werner) and D-4 (Prof. D. Stalke). The FT-Raman spectra recorded at 1064 nm led to very useful and interesting information. Furthermore, the DFT calculations which are known to offer promise of obtaining accurate vibrational wavenumbers, were successfully used for the assignment of the vibrational spectra. For the first time it has been possible to ascribe exactly the n(RhC) stretching mode in the vinylidene rhodium(I) complex trans-[RhF(=C=CH2)(PiPr3)2] by using isotopic substitution, in conjunction with theoretical calculations. This is also true for the complexes trans-[RhF(CO)(PiPr3)2], trans-[RhF(C2H4)(PiPr3)2], trans-[RhX(=C=CHPh)(PiPr3)2] (X = F, Cl, Br, I, Me, PhCºC) and trans-[RhX(CN-2,6-xylyl)(PiPr3)2] (X = F, Cl, Br, I, CºCPh). In addition, the comparison between the n(RhC) wavenumbers of the complexes trans-[RhF(=13C=13CH2)(PiPr3)2] and trans-[RhF(CO)(PiPr3)2], containing the isoelectronic ligands 13C=13CH2 and CO, which have the same reduced mass, indicated that the Rh-C bond is stronger in the carbonyl than in the vinylidene complex. Besides, the n(RhF) stretching mode, which has been observed at higher wavenumbers in the FT-Raman and -IR spectra of trans-[RhF(CO)(PiPr3)2], showed that the carbonyl ligand is a better p-acceptor and a less effective s-donor than the vinylidene one. Moreover, the comparison of the n(CºC) and n(Rh-C) modes from the FT-Raman spectrum of the complexes trans-[Rh(CºCPh)(L)(PiPr3)2] (L = C=CHPh, CO, CN-2,6-xylyl) point out that the p-acceptor ability of the ligand trans to CºCPh should rise in the order C=CH2 < CO < CN-2,6-xylyl \pounds C=CHPh. The investigated sensitivity of the n(RhC), n(CC), n(CO) and n(CN) vibrational modes to the electronic modifications occuring in the vinylidene, carbonyl, ethylene and isonitrile complexes, should allow in the future the examination of the p-acceptor or p-donor properties of further ligands. Likewise, we were able to characterize the influence of various X ligands on the RhC bond by using the n(RhC) stretching mode as a probe for the weakening of this. The calculated wavenumbers of the n(RhC) for the vinylidene complexes trans-[RhX(=C=CHR)(PiPr3)2], where R = H or Ph, suggested that the strength of the Rh=C bond increases along the sequence X = CºCPh < CH3 < I < Br < Cl < F. For the series of carbonyl compounds trans-[RhX(CO)(PiPr3)2], where X = F, Cl, Br and I, analogous results have been obtained and confirmed from the model compounds trans-[RhX(CO)(PMe3)2]. Since, the calculated vibrational modes for the ethylene complex trans-[RhF(C2H4)(PiPr3)2] were in good agreement with the experimental results and supported the description of this complex as a metallacyclopropane, we were interested in getting more information upon this class of compounds. In this context, we have recorded the FT-Raman and -IR spectra of the thioaldehyde complexes mer-[W(CO)3(dmpe)(h2-S=CH2)] and mer-[W(CO)3(dmpe)(h2-S=CD2)] which have been synthezised by B-3. The positions of the different WL vibrational modes anticipated by the DFT calculations, were consistent with the experimental results. Indeed, the analysis of the band shifts in the FT-Raman and -IR spectra of the isotopomer mer-[W(CO)3(dmpe)(h2-S=CD2)] confirmed our assignment. The different stereoisomers of complex mer-[W(CO)3(dmpe)(h2-S=CH2)] were investigated too, since RMN and IR-data have shown that complex mer-[W(CO)3(dmpe)(h2-S=CH2)] lead in solution to an equilibrium. Since the information on the vibrational spectra of the molybdenum and tungsten complexes Cp(CO)2M-PR2-X (M = Mo, W; R = Me, tBu, Ph; X = S, Se) is very scarce, we extended our research work to this class of compounds. We have tried to elucidate the bonding properties in these chalcogenoheterocycle complexes by taking advantage of the mass effect on the different metal atoms (W vs. Mo). Thus, the observed band shifts allowed to assign most of the ML fundamental modes of these complexes. This project and the following one were a cooperation within the work-group B-2. The Raman and IR spectra of the matrix isolated photoproducts expected by the UV irradiation of the iron silyl complex Cp(CO)2FeSiH2CH3 have been already reported by Claudia Fickert and Volker Nagel in their PhD-thesis. Since no exact assignment was feasible for these spectra, we were interested in the study of the reaction products created by irradiation of the carbonyl iron silyl complex Cp(CO)2FeCH2SiH3. Although the calculated characteristic vibrational modes of the metal ligand unit for the various photoproducts are significantly different in constitution, they are very similar in wavenumbers, which did not simplify their identification. However, the theoretical results have been found to be consistent with the earlier experimental results. Finally, the last part of this thesis has been devoted to the (2-Py)2E- anions which exhibit a high selectivity toward metal-coordination. All di(2-pyridyl) amides and -phosphides which were synthesized by D-4, coordinate the R2Al+ fragment via both ring nitrogen atoms. This already suggests that the charge density in the anions is coupled into the rings and accumulated at the ring nitrogen atoms, but the Lewis basicity of the central nitrogen atom in Et2Al(2-Py)2N is still high enough to coordinate a second equivalent AlEt3 to form the Lewis acid base adduct Et2Al(2-Py)2NAlEt3. Due to the higher electronegativity of the central nitrogen atom in Me2Al(2-Py)2N, Et2Al(2-Py)2N and Et2Al(2-Py)2NAlEt3, compared to the bridging two coordinated phosphorus atom in Me2Al(2-Py)2P and Et2Al(2-Py)2P, the di(2-pyridyl)amide is the hardest Lewis base. In the phosphides merely all charge density couples into the rings leaving the central phosphorus atom only attractive for soft metals. These results were confirmed by using DFT and MP2 calculations. Moreover, a similar behaviour has been observed and described for the benzothiazolyl complex [Me2Al{Py(Bth)P}], where complementary investigations are to be continued. The DFT calculations carried out on the model compounds analysed in these studies supply very accurate wavenumbers and molecular geometries, these being in excellent agreement with the experimental results obtained from the corresponding isolated complexes.},

  abstract  = {Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der st{\"o}rungstheoretischen Berechnung von zweidimensionalen Photonen-Echo-Spektren f{\"u}r das elektronische und vibronische Modell eines Homo- und Hetero-Dimers sowie f{\"u}r ein vibronisches Modell eines Monomers unter dem Einfluss einer System-Bad-Wechselwirkung. Bei der Analyse der Dimerspektren steht neben der Orientierungsmittelung der Polarisation dritter Ordnung der Unterschied zwischen elektronischen und vibronischen Spektren sowie der Vergleich der Spektren von Homo- und Hetero-Dimeren im Zentrum des Interesses. Bei der Analyse der Monomer-Spektren steht die Behandlung einer dissipativen Dynamik bzw. des vibrational-coolings innerhalb eines stochastischen Ansatzes im Vordergrund. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die st{\"o}rungstheoretische Berechnung der Polarisation dritter Ordnung in Dimeren. Dabei werden alle Aspekte und Ergebnisse f{\"u}r verschiedene Geometrien der {\"U}bergangsdipolmomente analysiert und diskutiert. Die Berechnungen ber{\"u}cksichtigen dabei auch die zuf{\"a}llige Anordnung der Molek{\"u}le in der Probe. Die Zusammenh{\"a}nge zwischen den 2D-Spektren und den Eigenschaften der Monomereinheiten, die Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Intensit{\"a}ten mancher Peaks von der zeitlichen Abfolge der Pulse sowie der Einfluss der elektronischen Kopplung und verschiedener {\"U}bergangsdipolmomente erm{\"o}glichen ein grundlegendes Verst{\"a}ndnis der elektronischen Photonen-Echo-Spektren. Im elektronischen Dimer wird der Hetero-Dimer-Charakter durch verschiedene Monomeranregungsenergien sowie unterschiedliche {\"U}bergangsdipolmomente der Monomereinheiten bestimmt. Der Einfluss dieser Gr{\"o}ßen auf die Photonen-Echo-Spektren kann durch die Kombination einer detaillierten analytischen Betrachtung und numerischen Rechnungen anschaulich nachvollzogen werden. In der vibronischen Betrachtungsweise zeigt sich, dass die Spektren deutlich an Komplexit{\"a}t gewinnen. Durch die Vibrationsfreiheitsgrade vervielfachen sich die m{\"o}glichen {\"U}berg{\"a}nge im System und damit die m{\"o}glichen Peakpositionen im Spektrum. Jeder Peak spaltet in eine Vibrationssubstruktur auf, die je nach ihrer energetischen Position mit anderen {\"u}berlagern kann. Der Vergleich zwischen Homo- und Hetero-Dimer-Spektren wird durch die Wahl verschiedener Vibrationsfrequenzen und unterschiedlicher Gleichgewichtsabst{\"a}nde entlang der Vibrationskoordinaten erweitert. Die Berechnung des Orientierungsmittels erfolgt mit zwei verschiedenen Ans{\"a}tzen. Zum einen wird das Mittel durch den numerischen sampling-Ansatz berechnet. Dabei werden Azimutal- und Polarwinkel in kleinen Winkelinkrementen abgetastet und f{\"u}r jede Kombination ein 2D-Spektrum berechnet. Die Einzelspektren werden anschließend gemittelt. Diese Methode erweist sich im Dimer als sehr effektiv. Zum anderen erlaubt die analytische Auswertung der Polarisation dritter Ordnung, das gemittelte Spektrum direkt in einer einzelnen Rechnung durch winkelgemittelte Gewichtungsfaktoren zu bestimmen. Bei der Berechnung der elektronischen 2D-Spektren ist diese Methode sehr leistungsf{\"a}hig, da alle Ausdr{\"u}cke analytisch bekannt sind. F{\"u}r vibronische Systeme ist dieser Ansatz ebenfalls sehr leistungsstark, ben{\"o}tigt aber eine einmalige aufwendige Analyse vor der Berechnung. Trotz der deutlich erh{\"o}hten Anzahl an Zustandsvektoren, die propagiert werden m{\"u}ssen, ist diese Methode circa zweimal schneller als die direkte Mittelung mit der sampling-Methode. Im zweiten Teil konzentriert sich die Arbeit auf die Beschreibung eines Monomers, das sich in einer dissipativen Umgebung befindet. Dabei wird auf die L{\"o}sung einer stochastischen Schr{\"o}dingergleichung zur{\"u}ckgegriffen. Speziell wird die sogenannte quantum-state-diffusion-Methode benutzt. Dabei werden nicht nur die Erwartungswerte f{\"u}r die Energie und den Ort, sondern auch die Polarisation dritter Ordnung - eine phasensensitive Gr{\"o}ße - bestimmt. In der theoretischen Fragestellung wird dabei, ausgehend von der von-Neumann Gleichung, die Zeitentwicklung der reduzierten Dichtematrix durch die Integration einer stochastischen zeitabh{\"a}ngigen Schr{\"o}dingergleichung reproduziert. In Rechnungen koppelt die Stochastik {\"u}ber die Erwartungswerte von Ort und Impuls die verschiedenen st{\"o}rungstheoretischen Korrekturen der Wellenfunktion miteinander. Die Spektren, die aus den numerischen Simulationen erhalten werden, spiegeln das dissipative Verhalten des Systems detailliert wider. Eine Analyse der Erwartungswerte von Ort und Energie zeigt, dass sich die einzelnen elektronischen Zust{\"a}nde wie ged{\"a}mpfte harmonische Oszillatoren verhalten und jeweils einen exponentiellen Zerfall abh{\"a}ngig von der Dissipationskonstante zeigen. Dieser Teil der Arbeit erweitert vorausgehende Untersuchungen, bei denen ein vereinfachter Ansatz zu Einsatz kam, der die korrelierte Stochastik nicht ber{\"u}cksichtigte.},

Hierbei liegt der Fokus auf der Charakterisierung der Exziton-Exziton-Annihilierung (EEA) mithilfe von zweidimensionaler optischer Spektroskopie f{\"u}nfter Ordnung. Dazu werden zwei verschiedene Modellsysteme implementiert: Das elektronische Homodimer und das elektronische Homotrimer-Modell, wobei Letzteres eine Erweiterung des Dimer-Modells darstellt. Die Kopplung des quantenmechanischen Systems an die Umgebung wird mithilfe des Quantum-Jump-Ansatzes umgesetzt. Besonderes Interesse kommt der Analyse des Signals f{\"u}nfter Ordnung in Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Populationszeit T zu. Anhand des Dimer-Modells als kleinstm{\"o}gliches Aggregat lassen sich bereits gute Vorhersagen auch {\"u}ber das Verhalten gr{\"o}ßerer molekularer Aggregate treffen. Der Zerfall des oszillierenden Signals f{\"u}r lange Populationszeiten korreliert mit der EEA. Dies zeigt, dass die zweidimensionale optische Spektroskopie genutzt werden kann, um den Annihilierungsprozess zu charakterisieren. Innerhalb des Modells des Dimers wird weiterhin der Einfluss der Intraband-Relaxation untersucht. Zunehmende Intraband-Relaxation verhindert den Austausch zwischen den lokalen Zust{\"a}nden, der essentiell f{\"u}r den Annihilierungsprozess ist, und die EEA wird blockiert. Das elektronische Trimer-Modell erweitert das Dimer-Modell um eine Monomereinheit. Somit befinden sich die Exzitonen im Anschluss an die Anregung nicht mehr unvermeidlich nebeneinander. Es gibt somit eine Konfiguration, bei der sich die Exzitonen zun{\"a}chst zueinander bewegen m{\"u}ssen, bevor die Startbedingung des Annihilierungsprozesses gegeben ist. Dieser zus{\"a}tzliche Schritt wird auch Exzitonendiffusion genannt. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit legen nahe, dass das erwartete Verhalten nur zu sehr kurzen Zeiten im Femtosekundenbereich auftritt und somit die Zeitskala der Exzitonendiffusion im Falle des Trimers nicht sichtbar wird. Es bedarf demnach eines gr{\"o}ßeren Modellsystems, bei dem sich der Effekt der zeitverz{\"o}gert eintretenden EEA deutlich in der Zerfallsdynamik manifestieren kann.},

  abstract  = {This work presents excited state investigations on several systems with respect to experimental spectroscopic work. The majority of projects covers the temporal evolution of excitations in thin films of organic semiconductor materials. In the first chapters, thinfilm and interface systems are build from diindeno[1,2,3-cd:1',2',3'-lm]perylene (DIP) and N,N'-bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-dicyanoperylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDIR-CN2) layers, in the third chapter bulk systems consist of 4,4',4"-tris[(3-methylphenyl)phenylamino] triphenylamine (m-MTDATA), 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BPhen) and tris-(2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl)borane (3TPYMB). These were investigated by aggregate-based calculations. Careful selection of methods and incorporation of geometrical relaxation and environmental effects allows for a precise energetical assignment of excitations. The biggest issue was a proper description of charge-transfer excitations, which was resolved by the application of ionization potential tuning on aggregates. Subsequent characterization of excitations and their interplay condenses the picture. Therefore, we could assign important features of the experimental spectroscopic data and explain differences between systems. The last chapter in this work covers the analysis of single molecule spectroscopy on methylbismut. This poses different challenges for computations, such as multi-reference character of low-lying excitations and an intrinsic need for a relativistic description. We resolved this by combining complete active space self-consistent field based methods with scalarrelativistic density-functional theory. Thus we were able to confidently assign the spectroscopic features and explain underlying processes.},
