The excitation of the Rydberg states is used to study the nonpolar solvation dynamics in supercrit. fluids (SCFs). The system NO in supercrit. Ar serves as the model system. First, the steady-state, absorption and fluorescence spectra of the NO X 2P-A 2S+( ...
The surface plasmon polariton-enhanced Raman spectra of size-selected, matrix-isolated C14 neutral clusters are presented along with the calculated vibrational frequencies for the ring and linear chain isomers. The Raman spectra show resonance enhancement ...
The ultrafast spectral evolution of the fluorescence of the all-trans protonated Schiff base of retinal (PSBR) in alcs. with different polarity was studied using the fluorescence up-conversion technique in a "polychromatic mode". Results reveal that vibr ...
Autofluorescence is emerging as a useful tool for the detection of early cancers in the bronchi. It has already produced interesting results, which have been implemented in commercial imaging devices. Their design relies on the spectroscopy of the tissues ...
Steady-state and picosecond (ps) fluorescence studies of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin (wt-bR) and of a nonisomerizing analog locked in the all-trans configuration have been performed. Extending earlier work done by femtosecond absorption spectroscopy, we ob ...
The absorption and fluorescence spectra of silver trimers isolated in an Ar matrix show the existence of three distinct lattice sites whereby the population of each site depends on the conditions of matrix preparation. Irradiation of certain absorption ban ...
Photo-induced excited-state reactions stand in the center of function of the photosensitive biological systems. These reactions can be accompanied by structural changes of the chromophore (for example isomerization) which are influenced by the nearest envi ...
The environment is important for the exact course of a chemical reaction. As an example of the strong influence of the environment on the reaction, this work studies the isomerization reaction of the chromophore retinal in the binding pocket of the protein ...
Non-polar solvation dynamics has been investigated using steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopy of the NO A(2)Sigma(+)(3ssigma) Rydberg state in fluid Ar over a wide range of densities spanning the supercritical regime. Equilibrium molecular dyn ...
The cyclic undecapeptide cyclosporin A (CsA) has a remarkable spectrum of diverse biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antiparasitic as well as immunosuppressive activities. However, the low water solubility of this drug is a ser ...
