The enhancement of excitation and reemission of molecules in dose proximity to plasmonic nanostuctures is studied with special focus on the comparison between idealized and realistically shaped nonostructures. Numerical experiments show that for certain ap ...
We present a stereodynamics study of the dissociative chemisorption of vibrationally excited methane on the (100), (110), and (111) planes of a nickel single crystal surface. Using linearly polarized infrared excitation of the antisymmetric C–H stretch nor ...
Motivated by the lack of an obvious spectroscopic probe to investigate nonconventional order such as quadrupolar orders in spin S > 1/2 systems, we present a theoretical approach to inelastic light scattering for spin-1 quantum magnets in the context of a ...
The different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum result in diverse effects upon interaction with matter: according to the wavelength, the radiation has energy appropriate for the excitation of a specific physical process. X-rays can be used as a tool to ...
We present here the analysis of experimental Stark effect measurements made using photofragment quantum beat spectroscopy on the 14,0->, 15,0->, 18,0+> and 14,0-> 12 > vibrational states of H2O [Callegari, A.; et al. Science 2002, 297, 993.]. To link the m ...
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 ...
The high energy of hydrogen vibrations in solids is the origin of their strong impact on thermodynamic properties. The peculiar structure of complex hydrides amplifies this impact. We shed light on the vibrational properties of three allotropes of Ca(BH4)2 ...
We present a method for determining molecular orientation from second-order nonlinear light scattering experiments. Our modeling shows that there is an optimal angular region, for which the scattering pattern is most sensitive to molecular orientation. We ...
Monocrystalline lattice matched Er(0.6 at. %): (Gd, LU)(2)O-3 films with nearly atomically flat surfaces and thicknesses up to 3 Am have been grown on Y2O3 substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The emission cross sections were comparable with the ones ...
Scattering processes in an optical microcavity are investigated for the case of silicon nanocrystals embedded in an ultra-high-Q toroid microcavity. Using a novel measurement technique based on the observable mode splitting, we demonstrate that light scatt ...
