While ground-state EDA has been widely applied to understand noncovalent interactions and chemical bonding, excited states introduce qualitatively new contributions, including photoexcitation, exciton resonance, and charge-transfer excitations. Recent developments in multistate density functional theory (MSDFT) extends the interpretability of EDA into the excited-state domain, offering mechanistic insight into photophysical and photochemical phenomena. This report summarizes the theoretical foundation of multistate EDA (MS-EDA), defines its key energetic terms, and illustrates its application to several groups of excited-state complexes. It is hoped that MS-EDA can provide interpretable understanding of excited state energies in terms of exciton resonance, superexchange stabilization and orbital and configuraiton delocalization.</p>","PeriodicalId":88823,"journal":{"name":"Annual reports in computational chemistry","volume":"21 ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12674676/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145679435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
