Reaction-diffusion dynamics through a Gaussian sink in the presence of an attractive stepwise linear potential energy curve

Abstract: In the present report, we have introduced the Fredholm integral method to solve the Smoluchowski equation in the Laplace domain. We get an exact semi-analytical solution for the linear potential energy curve in the dynamic diffusion process, and the survival probability is calculated by the numerical inverse Laplace transform method. We apply our method in two different physical contexts for finding different observable like average rate constant in electronic relaxation in solution and quantum yields in a photosynthetic system or doped molecular crystal.
