Abstract
The interaction of laser radiation with single J aggregates of cyanine dyes is theoretically analyzed and numerically simulated. The quantum-mechanical calculations of the equilibrium geometry and the energies and intensities of the lowest singlet electronic transitions in pseudoisocyanine chloride and its linear (chain) oligomers are fulfilled. The data of these calculations can serve as parameters of the analyzed model of interaction of J aggregates with radiation in the one-particle density matrix approximation. This model takes into account relaxation processes, the annihilation of excitations at neighboring molecules, and inhomogeneous broadening. Assuming that the inhomogeneous broadening is absent, calculations demonstrate the existence of spatial bistability, molecular switching waves, and dissipative solitons. The effect of the inhomogeneous broadening and the radiation intensity on the effective coherence length in linear (chain) J aggregates is analyzed.
