摘要: We benchmark several protocols for evaluating the energies of excited charge transfer (CT) states organic molecules dissolved in polar liquids. The combine time-dependent density functional theory using range-separated hybrid functionals, constrained theory, dispersion corrected functional, and a dielectric continuum model representing solvent. compare different against well-established experimental measured state solvated dimers functionalized anthracene tetracyanoethylene. find that charge-transfer combination with recently improved switching Gaussian polarizable (PCM) provide good agreement values CT states. also geometries weakly coupled donor-acceptor considered here leads to values.
