Structure of the Orthorhombic gamma-Phase and Phase Transitions of Ca(BD4)(2)

Philippe Mauron

We have solved and refined the crystal structure of the orthorhombic gamma-phase of Ca(BD4)(2) by combined synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction, neutron powder diffraction, and ab initio calculations. Among five structural candidates giving the same qualit ...

State-selective spectroscopy of water up to its first dissociation limit

Thomas Rizzo, Pavlo Maksyutenko, Maxim Grechko

A joint experimental and first-principles quantum chemical study of the vibration-rotation states of the water molecule up to its first dissociation limit is presented. Triple-resonance, quantum state selective spectroscopy is used to probe the entire ladd ...

Ultra-sensitive vibrational spectroscopy of protein monolayers with plasmonic nanoantenna arrays

Hatice Altug, Shyamsunder Erramilli, Mi Kyung Hong

Infrared absorption spectroscopy enabling direct access to vibrational fingerprints of the molecular structure is a powerful method for functional studies of bio-molecules. Although the intrinsic absorption cross-sections of IR active modes of proteins are ...

Silicon Surface with Giant Spin Splitting

Klaus Kern, Marco Grioni, Christian Reinhard Ast, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

We demonstrate a giant Rashba-type spin splitting on a semiconducting substrate by means of a Bi-trimer adlayer on a Si(111) wafer. The in-plane inversion symmetry is broken inducing a giant spin splitting with a Rashba energy of about 140 meV, much larger ...

Coulomb correlations of charged excitons in semiconductor quantum dots

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Daniel Oberli

The emission pattern of charged excitons in a semiconductor quantum dot (QD) is composed of a quadruplet of linearly polarized lines when a magnetic field is applied in a Voigt configuration. The orientation of the linear polarization of exciton emission i ...

Effects of molecular orientation of fluorescently-labeled duplex DNA on emission anisotropy

Akihiro Sato

The molecular orientation of Cy5-labeled target DNA hybridized on a probe DNA layer was studied on a planar waveguide in the Kretchmarm configuration at various target DNA bulk concentration. Optical waveguide fluorescence spectroscopy (OWFS) was employed ...

State-specific studies of internal mixing in a prototypical flexible bichromophore: Diphenylmethane

Laser-induced fluorescence, resonant two-photon ionization, UV-UV hole burning, UV depletion, and single vibronic level fluorescence (SVLF) spectra of jet-cooled diphenylmethane (DPM) have been recorded over the 37 300 - 38 400 cm(-1) region that encompass ...

Symmetry determination following structure solution in P1

A new method for space-group determination is described. It is based on a symmetry analysis of the structure-factor phases resulting from a structure solution in space group P1. The output of the symmetry analysis is a list of all symmetry operations compa ...

Toy models for wrapping effects

The anomalous dimensions of local single trace gauge invariant operators in N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be computed by diagonalizing a long range integrable Hamiltonian by means of a perturbative asymptotic Bethe ansatz. This formalism break ...

Intensity statistics of Friedel opposites

A previous analysis of the average intensity and mean-square intensity difference of Friedel opposites, conﬁned to the space group P1 [Flack & Shmueli (2007). Acta Cryst. A63, 257–265], is here extended to all the noncentrosymmetric space groups. The prese ...
