In this work, we use periodic density functional theory(periodic DFT) to rigorously assign vibrational spectra measured on nanorough wet-processed hydrogenated Si(111) surfaces. We compare Si(111)-(1x1) surfaces etched by dilute HF and NH4F, featuring two ...
Vibrational properties of molecular crystals are constantly used as structural fingerprints, in order to identify both the chemical nature and the structural arrangement of molecules. The simulation of these properties is typically very costly, especially ...
The key challenge of time-resolved Raman spectroscopy is the identification of the constituent species and the analysis of the kinetics of the underlying reaction network. In this work we present an integral approach that allows for determining both the co ...
In this thesis, I present an experimental molecular beam surface scattering study of dynamical processes involved when HCl molecules are scattered from Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces. I investigated vibrational excitation, translational inelasticity and diss ...
We have investigated the infrared spectra of the quarter-filled charge-ordered insulators delta-(EDT-TTF-CONMe2)(2)X (X=AsF6, Br) along all three crystallographic directions in the temperature range from 300 to 10 K. DFT-assisted normal mode analysis of th ...
The key challenge of time-resolved Raman spectroscopy is the identification of the constituent species and the analysis of the kinetics of the underlying reaction network. In this work we present an integral approach that allows for determining both the co ...
This study compares the structure and decomposition behaviors of theα,β, and γ polymorphs of Ca(BH 4) 2 for hydrogen storage. Samples with different polymorphic contents are characterized using powder X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopy. Decompo ...
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 ...
Quantum state resolved reactivity measurements probe the role of vibrational symmetry on the vibrational activation of the dissociative chemisorption of CH4 on Ni(111). IR-IR double resonance excitation in a molecular beam was used to prepare CH4 in three ...
Calculated structures of the two most stable conformers of a protonated decapeptide gramicidin S in the gas phase have been validated by comparing the vibrational spectra, calculat- ed from first- principles and measured in a wide spectral range using infr ...
