The article describes the use of neutron scattering methods (including powder diffraction, vibrational and rotational spectroscopy, and quasi-elastic scattering) to enhance our understanding of the performance (or lack of performance) of novel storage and ...
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 ...
The nucleation and growth behavior of lithium on a CaO/Mo(001) thin film has been investigated by means of scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. The Li follows two different growth regimes on the surface. Whereas extended 2D islands develop on to ...
The development of nanostructured materials with predictable and controllable connectivity and functionalities has sparked a multitude of research directions. We have been studying emerging metal-org. framework (MOFs) systems aimed at applications that ben ...
We employed Raman spectroscopy to investigate how the hydrostatic pressure affects the temperature of the Verwey transition in pure (Fe3O4) and Al-doped (Fe2.8Al0.2O4) magnetite. In both samples, pressure suppresses the transition. The Al-doped sample disp ...
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 ...
The design, fabrication and characterization of thermally actuated, parallelizable cantilevers is presented. Thermal simulations of operation in liquid give indications regarding displacement range in such an environment. ...
We summarize here our experimental studies of the high rovibrational energy levels of water. The use of double-resonance vibrational overtone excitation followed by energy-selective photofragmentation and laser-induced fluorescence detection of OH fragment ...
Quantum beat spectroscopy is combined with triple-resonance vibrational overtone excitation to measure the Stark coefficients (SCs) of the water molecule for 28 rovibrational levels lying from 27 600 to 41 000 cm−1. These data provide a stringent test for ...
Density functional calculations applying periodic boundary conditions have been performed to investigate adsorption and cracking of light alkanes (C 3-C 6) on zeolite H-ZSM-5. Intrinsic energy barriers were obtained from single-point calculations by applyi ...
