Diabatic Potential Energy Surfaces of SrH and Dynamics Studies of the Sr(5sS) + H Reaction.

Based on the ab initio energy points of both ground and excited states, a neural network fitting method combined with a specific function was successfully used to construct the diabatic potential energy surfaces (PESs) of the SrH system. The topographical features of the diabatic PESs were examined in detail. The results indicate that the nonadiabatic transition characteristics between ground and excited states are accurately described by the newly constructed diabatic PESs. To verify the validity and applicability of the diabatic PESs, as well as the nonadiabatic effects during the reaction process, the quantum dynamics studies of the Sr(5sS) + H reaction were performed based on both adiabatic and diabatic PESs. The dynamics results indicate that adiabatic dynamics results are dozens of times larger than those of nonadiabatic. This illustrates the significant effect of nonadiabaticity, indicating that adiabatic dynamics results often overestimate the actual values. The integral cross sections (ICSs) were calculated and compared with the experimental data. The diabatic ICSs are in good agreement with the experimental results. The reasonable dynamics results indicate that the newly constructed diabatic PESs are suitable for the relevant dynamics studies.
