High-resolution stimulated Raman spectroscopy and analysis of the ν 1 , 2ν 1 -ν 1 , ν 2 , 2ν 2 , and 3ν 2 -ν 2 bands of CF4
2013
The spectra of the ν1, 2ν1–ν1, ν2, 2ν2, and 3ν2–ν2 bands of CF4 were obtained with a quasi-continuous wave stimulated Raman spectrometer. These five bands were studied at a temperature of 135 and 300 K (for the hot bands). The spectrum of ν1 was obtained at a sample pressure of 2 mbar. For the spectra of the other regions, which are much weaker, higher pressures were used. The analysis has been performed thanks to the xtds and spview softwares developed in Dijon for such highly symmetric molecules. Combining the present results with a previous infrared study, we could determine a very accurate value for the C–F equilibrium bond length, i.e. re = 1.31588(6) A. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & S…
High-resolution spectroscopy of the ν3 band of WF6 and ReF6 in a supersonic jet
2002
We have recorded the Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of the ν3 fundamental band of WF6 in a continuous supersonic jet expansion with an instrumental bandwidth of 0.0024 cm−1 (FWHM, full width at half maximum, unapodized), using a Bomem DA.002 spectrometer. Some parts of this band have also been recorded with 0.0007 cm−1 bandwidth using a diode laser spectrometer combined with a pulsed slit jet expansion. A multiple-pass arrangement has been used for the slit jet to observe low-intensity lines. In each case, we have used a WF6:He mixture with a seeding ratio 1:3 leading to a rotational temperature of ca. 50 K. This work extends the previous investigation of Takami and Kuze [J. Che…
Gas-phase detection of HSOD and empirical equilibrium structure of oxadisulfane
2006
We present the first gas phase spectra of singly deuterated oxadisulfane, HSOD, in its vibrational ground state. More than 100 transitions have been recorded with highest frequency accuracy using the Cologne Terahertz Spectrometer. The molecular parameters derived from a least squares fit analysis proof HSOD to be an almost accidental symmetric prolate top molecule with an asymmetry parameter kZK0.9985. Spectra of c-type and weaker b-type transitions have been recorded in the range from 716 to 772 GHz. The ratio of the dipole moments mc/mbZ2.4(3) has been derived from measured line intensities. The c-type transitions are split by the tunneling motion of a hindered internal rotation, whereas…
Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for Rapid Elemental Analysis of Drillcore
2013
Abstract The elemental and mineralogical contents of rock drillcore can be analyzed using a variety of methods. For efficient exploration the characterization of the drillcore should be performed rapidly, so that the further drillings can be better planned and unnecessary costs can be reduced. In this paper, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is studied as a potential rapid on-line method for automated elemental analysis of drillcore. The method is based on a pulsed laser beam that transforms a small volume of the sample into plasma. Individual elements in the plasma have characteristic emission patterns detectable by a spectrometer. Based on the measured spectra the amount of diff…
Spectral calibration and atmospheric correction of ultra-fine spectral and spatial resolution remote sensing data. Application to CASI-1500 data
2007
Imaging spectrometers operating in the solar spectrum measure the upwelling reflected solar radiation, and are an important tool in the bio/geochemical characterization of the Earth system. Surface reflectance is usually the starting point for the retrieval of biophysical parameters from remote measurements. Reliable radiometric and spectral calibrations and accurate atmospheric correction are mandatory in the interpretation of the surface reflectance. A complete surface reflectance retrieval scheme specifically designed for ultra-fine spectral resolution (bandwidth from 10 to 2 nm) and spatial resolution (pixel size less than 10 m) imaging spectrometers is presented in this work. The asses…
Structural analysis of the O-specific polysaccharide isolated from Plesiomonas shigelloides O51 lipopolysaccharide.
2009
Plesiomonasshigelloides strain CNCTC 110/92 (O51) was identified as a new example of plesiomonads synthesising lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) that show preference for a non-aqueous surrounding during phenol/water extraction. Chemical analyses combined with (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, MALDI-TOF and ESI mass spectrometry showed that the repeating units of the O-specific polysaccharides isolated from phenol and water phase LPSs of P. shigelloides O51 have the same structure: -->4)-beta-D-GlcpNAc3NRA-(1-->4)-alpha-L-FucpAm3OAc-(1-->3)-alpha-D-QuipNAc-(1-->, containing the rare sugar constituent 2,3-diamino-2,3-dideoxyglucuronic acid (GlcpNAc3NRA), and substituents such as D-3-hydroxybutyric ac…
Theoretical calculation of the vibrational spectra of cis-cis-cyclooctadienes in the vapour phase.
2000
The theoretical infrared spectra of 1,3-cis-cis-cyclooctadiene (1,3-COD) and 1,5-cis-cis-cyclooctadiene (1,5-COD), were obtained by ab initio MO calculations at Hartree-Fock level. The results were compared with the available IR experimental spectra of 1,3- and 1,5-COD. The apparent agreement between theoretical and experimental data allows us to exploit two bands, found only in the case of the theoretical spectrum of 1,4-COD, as a tool for identifying 1,4-COD during its synthesis.
Theoretical investigations of the IR spectroscopy of Ni(C(2)S(2)H(2))(2). A case study of the P_VMWCI(2) algorithm including anharmonic effects.
2010
The near infrared (NIR) spectra of bis(ethylene-1,2-dithiolato)nickel, Ni(C(2)S(2)H(2))(2) are fully interpreted here by applying a method developed for efficient automatic computation of both the infrared wave numbers and the intensities. The employed procedure uses parallel variational multiple window configuration interaction wave functions, the so-named P_VMWCI(2) algorithm, which incorporates both the mechanical and the electric anharmonic effects. It is shown that inclusion of anharmonicities is crucial for correctly assigning the fundamental, combination, and overtone vibrational frequencies in the infrared spectrum of the target system, for which conflicting assignments are found in…
A preliminary assessment of a detailed two stream short-wave narrow-band model using spectral radiation measurements
1997
Abstract A data bank of measurements of global, direct and diffuse solar spectral irradiances at ground level for clear skies has been compiled for Valencia (Spain) dating back to December 1992. The measurements were made with a commercial Li-cor 1800 spectroradiometer with a range of 300–1100 nm and a spectral resolution of 6 nm. A preliminary comparative assessment has been carried out between the experimental data and model data. The chosen model was a detailed narrow-band model (208 spectral intervals from 0.2 to 4 μm) developed at the “Laboratoire d'Optique Atmospherique (LOA)” of the University of Lille (France). This plane-parallel multilayer model uses a two-flux method to solve the…
Multispectral colour analysis for quantitative evaluation of pseudoisochromatic color deficiency tests
2010
Multispectral color analysis was used for spectral scanning of Ishihara and Rabkin color deficiency test book images. It was done using tunable liquid-crystal LC filters built in the Nuance II analyzer. Multispectral analysis keeps both, information on spatial content of tests and on spectral content. Images were taken in the range of 420-720nm with a 10nm step. We calculated retina neural activity charts taking into account cone sensitivity functions, and processed charts in order to find the visibility of latent symbols in color deficiency plates using cross-correlation technique. In such way the quantitative measure is found for each of diagnostics plate for three different color deficie…
