Abstract

For the first time simulations of chirally-induced excitons have been carried out, using molecular dynamic simulations and self-consistent quantum chemical calculations within the RHF [Restricted Hartree-Fock ] and DFT [Density Functional Theory] approaches. We found that the DFT approach gave substantially better agreement than the RHF. Comparison of theoretical and experimental results for biscyanine dye with a Shiff base showed a sufficiently good level of agreement.
