As shown in the figures, our recent study has realized significantly-fine theoretical spectroscopy which highly resemble to the experimental one. In addition, our method is able to predict the structure of molecules in their excited state. The scope of the application has been broadened to core-electron processes and metal surfaces.
Out target is now expanding to the photochemistry of the photo-functional molecules. As an example, the figure compares the experimental spectrum with the SAC-CI theoretical one including the thermal effect of the internal bond rotation.
