Combined theoretical and experimental study of spin and charge dynamics on the homodinuclear complex [Ni2(II)(L-N4Me2)(emb)].
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of spin and charge dynamics on the homodinuclear compound [Ni2(II)(L-N4Me2)(emb)]. The theoretically calculated oscillator strengths of the ground-state absorption spectrum show an acceptable agreement with experiment. We predict a local ultrafast laser-induced spin-flip scenario, which involves charge-transfer states. Experimentally, we observe charge dynamics on two different time scales. The two relevant, transient electronic states and their electronic properties are also theoretically characterized. These results provide a joint investigation of the homodinuclear complex and suggest a realistic scenario for ultrafast spin dynamics and other optical-related manipulations.
