Dunham coefficients of 14N2 from CARS measurements of high vibrational states in a low-pressure discharge

1988

Spectroscopic constants of the X1Σg+ ground state of 14N2 are deduced from CARS spectra recorded in a 4 Torr d.c. N2 glow discharge. Vibrational states up to ν = 14 have been observed but only the 11 lower levels which have a good signal-to-noise ratio have been processed. The Dunham constants that were deduced yield vibrational band centre positions in good agreement with those of Lofthus and Krupenie.

Elaboration and characterization of organic/inorganic hybrid nanoporous material incorporating Keggin-type Mo-Si polyanions

2007

A novel nanoporous (pore size of 11 nm in average, BET surface area of 30 m2/g, pore volume of 300 mm3/g) hybrid inorganic-organic material was synthesized using the solid-phase interaction at room temperature of plant-originated phenylpropanoid polymer lignin and a Keggin-type heteropolyanion [SiMo12O40]4-. The partly reduction of Mo(VI) to Mo(V) and complexes formation between lignin and polyanion have been established by EPR, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. The XRD pattern and FT-IR spectrum of the hybrid material and indicates that [SiMo12O40]4- anion maintains the Keggin structure.

Effects of isotopic substitution on the conformational properties of polymeric aqueous solutions

2000

Abstract This work deals with a side-by-side comparison between the PEO conformational properties in H 2 O and D 2 O. The gyration radius, evaluated by SANS, the hydrodynamic radius, evaluated by PCS, and the Raman D-LAM band analysis furnish valuable information on the structural arrangement of the molecules. The findings clearly show different behavioural properties of the polymer in H 2 O and D 2 O.

Study of interacting bands of silane: Analysis of infrared and Raman spectra

1990

Abstract The ν 1 ν 3 interacting bands of natural silane have been studied by Fourier transform spectroscopy and stimulated Raman spectroscopy, respectively, in the regions 2040–2320 and 2180–2187 cm−1. These data combined with available microwave observations have been analyzed using a reduced effective Hamiltonian developed through the fifth order for 28SiH4 and through the fourth order for 29SiH4 and 30SiH4. The observed infrared and Raman transitions have been very well reproduced with a standard deviation of about 0.0004 cm−1 for 28SiH4. Some anomalies in the Hamiltonian expansion have been found, but they did not perturb the analysis.

Analysis of the intensities of the longitudinal acoustic vibrations inn-alkanes and polyethylene

1980

Simple theoretical considerations indicate, that the integral intensity of the „longitudinal acoustic modes” (LAM) in the Raman spectrum ofn-alkanes should be independent of the chain length. The experiment in fact confirms this expectation. Using this property it becomes possible for polyethylene samples, to derive from the measured LAM-intensity the mass fraction of all-turns sequences contributing to this band. For solution crystallized samples this fraction coincides with the crystallinity, whereas in melt crystallized samples it generally turns out as smaller. The observed difference is likely to be due to the occurrence of local conformational defects (kinks, chain torsions) which int…

Discrete bond model (DBM) of sodium silicate glasses derived from XPS, Raman and NMR measurements

1993

In sodium silicate glasses, the fraction of differently bound Si species Q[i] (i = 0−4), depending on the number i of bridging oxygens bound to the quarternary silicon, is a function of stoichiometry and the Na/Si ratio. Sodium silicate glasses were investigated by high resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. To explain the differences in chemical shifts and linewidths of the O 1s signal of the bridging and the non-bridging oxygen as a function of alkali concentration, and extended glass model was developed. This new model takes into account the influence of the alkali concentration on the Q[i] distribution and on the appearance and concentrations of differently bound bridging oxygens …

Über tetraaryl-methan-analoga in der gruppe 14

1994

Abstract The title compounds have been synthesized by Grignard reactions or pyrolysis of diplumbanes respectively. The crystal structures of m -Tol 4 Pb and Ph 4 Pb (redetermination) have been determined. All eight compounds (Ph/Tol) 4 (Sn/Pb) are S 4 symmetric and contracted along this unique axis. The 13 C-NMR chemical shifts and the couplings 1 J ( 119 Sn/ 207 Pb 13 C) as well depend additively upon the methyl substituents. The ratios 1 K ( 207 Pb 13 C): 1 K ( 119 Sn 13 C) of the reduced coupling constants are all near to 1.61; a comparison with values from the literature for alkyl, alkenyl and alkinyl substituents is given. The ratio δ( 207 Pb):δ( 119 Sn) results in 2.28. IR (700 dow…

New insights for materials science characterisation using different complementary techniques combined with X-ray absorption Spectroscopy

2005

The combination of x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) with UV-Vis and Raman spectroscopies or with Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has been recently carried out on the D44 beamline of DCI-LURE. The different set-ups used to perform such combinations are described and examples of combined investigations belonging to different field of materials science (coordination chemistry, sol-gel and catalysis) are presented.

Sorting of Enhanced Reference Raman Spectra of a Single Amino Acid Molecule

2014

In this contribution, we report the identification of the principal reference Raman spectra of a single cystein molecule. To that purpose, we design an active Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) template based on surfactant-less Chebyshev nanoparticles operating in a microfluidic platform. A principal component analysis is obtained from fluctuating spectra to sort the reference spectra of cystein. The assignment of Raman bands brings new insight into the conformation of an amino acid adsorbed onto gold nanoparticle.
