IR Bandshapes of Intramolecularly H-Bonded Systems II. 2,4-Dibromophenol
1984
A detailed quantitative study of the IR bandshape of the ϑs(OH) vibration of 2,4-dibromophenol in a series of solvents is presented.A distinct dependence of band positions, shape parameters, correlation functions and correlation times from solvent polarity has been found.The contribution of various shaping mechanisms to the profile is discussed.
Proton magnetic resonance imaging with para-hydrogen induced polarization.
2012
A major challenge in imaging is the detection of small amounts of molecules of interest. In the case of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) their signals are typically concealed by the large background signal of e.g. the body. This problem can be tackled by hyperpolarization which increases the NMR signals up to several orders of magnitude. However, this strategy is limited for (1)H, the most widely used nucleus in NMR and MRI, because the enormous number of protons in the body screens the small amount of hyperpolarized ones. Here, we describe a method giving rise to high (1)H MRI contrast for hyperpolarized molecules against a large background signal. The contrast is based on the J-coupling i…
Synchronizing Two Superconducting Qubits through a Dissipating Resonator
2021
A system consisting of two qubits and a resonator is considered in the presence of different sources of noise, bringing to light the possibility of making the two qubits evolve in a synchronized way. A direct qubit–qubit interaction turns out to be a crucial ingredient, as well as the dissipation processes involving the resonator. The detrimental role of the local dephasing of the qubits is also taken into account.
