The dynamics and bonding of the complex hydride LiBH4 have been investigated by vibrational spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT). The combination of infrared, Raman, and inelastic neutron-scattering (INS) spectroscopies on hydrided and deuterat ...
Interfacial molecular dynamics are key to understanding many phenomena in technology and life sciences. We demonstrate a first step toward accessing vibrational dynamics at liquid-liquid and nanoscopic (bio)-interfaces using time-resolved sum-frequency sca ...
In this thesis, I describe the design and first applications of a new molecular-beam/surface-science ultra-high vacuum apparatus. The new machine combines rovibrational state-selective infrared pumping of gas-phase reactants with reflection absorption infr ...
Composites based on polydiphenylamine (PDPA) doped with heteropolyanions of H3PW12O40 and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were prepared by electrochemical polymerization of diphenylamine (DPA) on carbon nanotube films deposited onto Pt electrodes. H ...
Fourier Transform Infrared ( FTIR) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) were used to measure organic functional groups and elements of submicron particles collected during MILAGRO in March 2006 on three platforms: the Mexico City urban area (SIMAT), the high altit ...
The dissociative chemisorption of CH4 on Pt(111) was studied using quantum state-resolved methods at a surface temperature (Ts) of 150 K where the nascent reaction products CH3(ads) and H(ads) are stable and accumulate on the surface. Most previous experim ...
We report the design and characterization of a new molecular-beam/surface-science apparatus for quantum state-resolved studies of gas/surface reaction dynamics combining optical state-specific reactant preparation in a molecular beam by rapid adiabatic pas ...
Dimethylaminonitrene complexes of IMesM+ (IMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)- imidazol-2-ylidene; M = Cu, Ag, Au) were prepared in the gas phase and structurally characterized by high-resolution infrared spectroscopy of the cold species, ion-molecule re ...
The characterization of the interactions of Zn2+ ions with imidazole ligands is vital for understanding the function of a plethora of zinc enzymes at the molecular level. The infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectrum of mass selected Zn2+(imid ...
Infrared spectroscopy provides a means to determine the intrinsic geometrical structures of molecules. Here we present a novel spectroscopic method that uses superfluid helium nanodroplets to record IR spectra of cold molecular ions, in this particular cas ...
