Laser field induced charge transfer: Para-nitroaniline coupled to a quantum mechanical radiation field

Summary We present a preliminary model for describing a solvated intramolecular charge transfer reaction coupled to a quantum mechanical radiation field. Actual calculations of energies and couplings were performed with a recently developed self-consistent reaction field response method. The representation of dressed molecular states is used for calculating state populations for various laser fields. The state populations are sensitive to the properties of the laser field.
