We present inelastic light scattering data on a single crystal of magnetite (Fe3O4) across the Verwey transition. We identify anomalies of the lattice vibrations that originate from strong coupling to electronic excitations. We reveal spectroscopic signatu ...

Quantum-state-resolved reactivity of overtone excited CH4 on Ni(111): Comparing experiment and theory

Rainer Beck, Phil Morten Hundt, Maarten Eduard van Reijzen

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 ...

American Institute of Physics2017

In this thesis, I describe the design and implementation of the first state-to-state surface scattering experiments for methane from clean single crystalline surfaces in ultrahigh vacuum. The experiments use infrared laser pumping to prepare the incident C ...

Quantum state resolved molecular beam reflectivity measurements: CH4 dissociation on Pt(111)

Rainer Beck, Ana Gutiérrez González, Helen Jane Chadwick

The King and Wells molecular beam reflectivity method has been used for a quantum state resolved study of the dissociative chemisorption of CH4 on Pt(111) at several surface temperatures. Initial sticking coefficients were measured for incident CH4 prepare ...

American Institute of Physics2016

We report zero-coverage reaction probabilities (S-0) for HCl dissociative adsorption on Au(111) obtained by the seeded molecular beam hot-nozzle method. For measurements at normal incidence with mean translational energies ranging from 0.94 to 2.56 eV (noz ...

Importance of rotationally inelastic processes in low-energy Penning ionization of CHF3

Andreas Osterwalder, Justinas Jankunas

Low energy reaction dynamics can strongly depend on the internal structure of the reactants. The role of rotationally inelastic processes in cold collisions involving polyatomic molecules has not been explored so far. Here we address this problem performin ...

Molecular cavity optomechanics as a theory of plasmon-enhanced Raman scattering

Tobias Kippenberg, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

The exceptional enhancement of Raman scattering by localized plasmonic resonances in the near field of metallic nanoparticles, surfaces or tips (SERS, TERS) has enabled spectroscopic fingerprinting down to the single molecule level. The conventional explan ...

We report a molecular beam study of the effect of vibrational excitation on the physisorption of methane on a Pt(111) surface. Our experiments use a continuous molecular beam of CH4, prepared in its antisymmetic C-H stretch mode ν3 by infrared laser pumpin ...

Optical properties of small metal clusters

Chongqi Yu

This thesis is devoted to the study of the optical properties of small metal clusters and metal cluster organic compounds. For this purpose a ultra-high vacuum (UHV) experimental apparatus has been built which allows for the deposition of mass selected neu ...

Molecular Optomechanics with Plasmons: Backaction at the nanoscale

Tobias Kippenberg, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

The plasmonic systems used in surface-enhanced Raman scattering are shown to be quivalent to optomechanical cavities. The new backaction force of the plasmon on the molecular vibration could lead to coherent amplification of vibrational motion. ...
