This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has its or1g1n in a NATO Summer School organized from June 25 to July 7 1979, in Menton, France. The purpose of this School was a comparative study of the various aspects of vibra tional spectroscopy in molecular liquids and solids. This field has been rapidly expanding in the last decade; unfortunately, its development took place independently for liquids and for solids. In these circumstances, the comparison of the basic concepts and techniques used in these two branches of physics appeared as a necessity. The lectures given at the Menton Advanced Study Institute, as well as the exceptionally fruitful and lively discussions which followed them confirmed this point of view. The need of putting together these lectures, in the form of a monograph, clearly appeared during the ASI and the lecturers accepted to write down the material they presented at the Institute, improved thanks to the remarks of the participants. It is the result of this collective work which appears in the familiar Plenum Series.

This book was released on 1997-10-31 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book reviews the results of vibration-rotational spectroscopy of molecules obtained recently by combining modern computational methods of quantum chemistry with the new techniques of high-resolution rotational and vibration-rotational spectroscopy. It shows for example that the tunneling vibration-rotational spectroscopy of the van der Waals complexes provides a new look at intermolecular forces while the high precision and sensitivity of the submillimeter-wave and Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy make it possible to study complex rotational spectra of molecules in excited vibrational states. New results of high level ab initio quantum chemical computations of vibrational and rotational energy levels and dipole moment functions of unusual molecules will be discussed together with the recent discovery of clustering of energy levels in asymmetric tops. Group theoretical analysis of floppy molecules, especially the tunneling effects in nonrigid molecules, will also be discussed.

Download or read book Molecular Dynamics and Spectroscopy by Stimulated Emission Pumping written by Hai-Lung Dai and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1995 with total page 1148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first stimulated emission pumping (SEP) experiments more than a decade ago, this technique has proven powerful for studying vibrationally excited molecules. SEP is now widely used by increasing numbers of research groups to investigate fundamental problems in spectroscopy, intramolecular dynamics, intermolecular interactions, and even reactions. SEP provides rotationally pre-selected spectra of vibrationally highly excited molecules undergoing large amplitude motions. A unique feature of SEP is the ability to access systematically a wide variety of extreme excitations localized in various parts of a molecule, and to prepare populations in specific, high vibrational levels. SEP has made it possible to ask and answer specific questions about intramolecular vibrational redistribution and the role of vibrational excitation in chemical reactions.

Book excerpt: Reviews the latest theory, techniques, and applications Surface vibrational spectroscopy techniques probe the structure and composition of interfaces at the molecular level. Their versatility, coupled with their non-destructive nature, enables in-situ measurements of operating devices and the monitoring of interface-controlled processes under reactive conditions. Vibrational Spectroscopy at Electrified Interfaces explores new and emerging applications of Raman, infrared, and non-linear optical spectroscopy for the study of charged interfaces. The book draws from hundreds of findings reported in the literature over the past decade. It features an internationally respected team of authors and editors, all experts in the field of vibrational spectroscopy at surfaces and interfaces. Content is divided into three parts: Part One, Nonlinear Vibrational Spectroscopy, explores properties of interfacial water, ions, and biomolecules at charged dielectric, metal oxide, and electronically conductive metal catalyst surfaces. In addition to offering plenty of practical examples, the chapters present the latest measurement and instrumental techniques. Part Two, Raman Spectroscopy, sets forth highly sensitive approaches for the detection of biomolecules at solid-liquid interfaces as well as the use of photon depolarization strategies to elucidate molecular orientation at surfaces. Part Three, IRRAS Spectroscopy (including PM-IRRAS), reports on wide-ranging systems from small fuel molecules at well-defined surfaces to macromolecular complexes that serve as the building blocks for functional interfaces in devices designed for chemical sensing and electric power generation. The Wiley Series on Electrocatalysis and Electrochemistry is dedicated to reviewing important advances in the field, exploring how these advances affect industry. The series defines what we currently know and can do with our knowledge of electrocatalysis and electrochemistry as well as forecasts where we can expect the field to be in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spectroscopy of Condensed Media: Dynamics of Molecular Interactions discusses the use of molecular spectroscopy (including nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR] and nonlinear optical spectroscopy) in dynamic processes in condensed molecular systems. The book reviews relationship between transition probability and the time-correlation function of an isotropic electric dipole system, linear-response theory, and light scattering resulting from the translational motion of molecules in fluids. The text describes molecular rotation, theories of angular momentum, nuclear magnetic resonance, and spontaneous and coherent Raman effects. Closely related with the Raman and Brillouin scattering are vibrational dephasing, relaxation processes, and dynamics of phase transition solids. The book highlights the advantages of using NMR and also explains the basic concepts, such as local field, spin temperature, and effective Hamiltonians, that are employed in interpreting NMR experiments. The investigator can use nonlinear optical spectroscopy to study condensed matter. The text also cites two methods in which the investigator can control the time-dependent average Hamiltonian by (1) manipulating the intensity, timing, phase of the pulses, or (2) by sample spinning. The book is intended for advanced graduate students in physical chemistry that will equally benefit both investigators and scientists involved in physics research.

Download or read book Vibrational Spectroscopy of Solids written by Peter Miles Anson Sherwood and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1972-09-21 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1972 monograph is devoted to the analysis and interpretation of the infrared and Raman spectra of solid compounds, frequently used for their identification and characterization. It was thought unsatisfactory to analyse such spectra by the theory applicable to gas-phase samples, though this was frequently done. Furthermore, the results obtained by far infrared and laser Raman spectrometers, which detect the movement of atoms and/or molecules as a whole, had no gas-phase analogy. A separate approach to solid state vibrational spectra was therefore proposed within this volume. Dr Sherwood describes the solid state physics of vibrational spectroscopy and extends it to the more complex structures of low symmetry. He assumes an understanding of the infrared and Raman spectra of gases.

Download or read book Using Steady state Vibrational Spectroscopy to Characterize the Effect that Molecular Environments Have on the Kinetics of Chemical Systems written by Andrea Giordano and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A goal that unifies all chemists is the desire to understand the intermolecular and intramolecular interactions that occur in a given system. For many chemical systems, we have an understanding of the intramolecular interactions that occur within a molecule, and how these interactions dictate the physical properties of the molecule, such as the dipole moment, color, or the dielectric constant. The intermolecular interactions that occur between molecules and their molecular environment have proven to be more difficult to isolate, due to multiple interactions occurring simultaneously. It is important to understand these interactions between molecules and their molecular environment because such interactions affect nearly every practical chemical system, from biological to industrial applications. Therefore, it is of the upmost importance to understand how the intermolecular interactions can manifest throughout chemical systems. We are interested in separating the multiple contributions to the intermolecular interactions that arise from the molecular environment. To achieve this goal, I developed theoretical and experimental frameworks for determining kinetic parameters of chemical systems using steady-state vibrational spectroscopy, a tool that has proven very powerful for determining the effects of both intramolecular and intermolecular interactions, therefore, we have chosen to focus on using vibrational spectroscopy in my dissertation. I first demonstrate the equivalency between the kinetic information extracted from IR and Raman spectroscopies by obtaining identical activation energies for the ligand site exchange of Fe(CO)3([eta]4-norbornadiene) (FeNBD). These experiments rely upon the extraction of kinetic information from steady-state band shapes and demonstrated that either vibrational spectroscopic technique can be used to extract kinetic information from the band shapes of steady-state spectra. In order to do this, I worked with collaborators to extend the theoretical framework for extracting the rate constant from the band shapes of vibrational spectra to include Raman spectroscopy. The next step towards the goal of separating the multiple contributions to the intermolecular interactions is to categorize these contributions as static effects and dynamic effects. For the purpose of this work, I define static effects as those that arise from solute-solvent interactions that cause changes in the band shape, while dynamic effects are those that arise from changes in the dynamics of a system as a result of interaction with the molecular environment. I establish a way to separate static effects from dynamic effects by analyzing the solvent effects of Fe(CO)3([eta]4-cyclooctatetraene) using solvent-dependent IR spectroscopy. The dynamic effects induced by the solvent environment were analyzed through temperature-dependent Raman experiments of FeNBD in a series of linear alkane solvents. The last part of this dissertation further focused on the consequences of static effects, examining the morphology of conducting polymer films used in thin film devices. We used Raman spectroscopy to characterize the crystallinity of conducting polymer films with and without dopant materials. From this data, we constructed structure-function relationships by correlating the morphology of the polymer film to the overall device performance that will aid in the rational design of materials used in thin film devices. This part of my dissertation was done in collaboration with Prof. Elizabeth von Hauff at The University of Freiburg in Germany. Future experiments will explore the effects confining environments will have on the dynamics of FeNBD. Initial experiments to encapsulated FeNBD into a porous polymer matrix were successful, but there are many potential experiments along this line of reasoning that could be explored, and are discussed in the final chapter of this dissertation. In its entirety, this dissertation will provide the scientific community with a novel approach that combines the ability to measure ground state kinetics using steady-state vibrational spectroscopy with a theoretical framework to analyze the effects the molecular environment induces on the ground state kinetics in chemical systems.
