We have applied conformer-selective IR-UV double-resonance photofragment spectroscopy at low temperatures in an ion trap mass spectrometer for the spectroscopic characterization of peptide fragment ions. We investigate b- and a-type ions formed by collisio ...
The function of biologically active molecules depends both on their structure and on their conformational dynamics. In solution, intramolecular interaction with the solvent will influence different biological processes, i.e. protein folding. However second ...
Quantum chemical methods are important tools for the predictions of electronic structure and energetics of molecules providing the interpretation of spectroscopic experiments and reaction mechanisms. In this thesis, density functional theory (DFT) and wave ...
The torsional barriers of 2'-substituted 2-arylpyridines have been probed experimentally (by using dynamic NMR spectroscopy) and computationally (by using density functional theory). Due to the compressibility of the lone pair, the torsional barriers of th ...
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 ...
We have measured the rovibrational levels in the electronic ground state of the water molecule at the previously inaccessible energies above 26000 cm-1. The use of laser double-resonance overtone excitation combined with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) ph ...
We use ab initio density functional calculations to investigate the structural stability and vibrational spectra of small boron aggregates in different charge states. In search of candidates for the largest stable 2D boron aggregates, we focus on systems w ...
We demonstrate a novel approach for high-throughput and high-resolution fabrication of engineered infrared plasmonic antenna arrays with reusable nanostencils for vibrational spectroscopy. Optical responses of these antennas are identical to ones fabricate ...
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 ...
