Interaction of metal ions with N-glycosylamines: isolation and characterization of the products of 4,6-O-benzylidene-N-(o-carboxyphenyl)-β-D-glucopyr…
2001
Metal-ion complexes of Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Hg2+ with 4,6–O–benzylidene–N–(o–carboxyphenyl)–β–D–glucopyranosylamine were synthesized and isolated as solid products and characterized by analytical means as well as by spectral techniques, such as, 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR, absorption, FAB mass spectrometry, optical rotation and CD. While the alkali metal ions formed ML type of complexes, the other metal ions formed ML2 type complexes. Molecular weights of the complexes of Li+, Na+ and K+ were established based on the molecular-ion peaks in the FAB mass spectra. The saccharide portion remians in the β-anomeric form even after the complexation. The spectral data, as well as t…
Supramolecular functionalization and concomitant enhancement in properties of Au25 clusters
2014
We present a versatile approach for tuning the surface functionality of an atomically precise 25 atom gold cluster using specific host-guest interactions between ?-cyclodextrin (CD) and the ligand anchored on the cluster. The supramolecular interaction between the Au25 cluster protected by 4-(t-butyl)benzyl mercaptan, labeled Au25SBB18, and CD yielding Au25SBB18�?�CDn (n = 1, 2, 3, and 4) has been probed experimentally using various spectroscopic techniques and was further analyzed by density functional theory calculations and molecular modeling. The viability of our method in modifying the properties of differently functionalized Au25 clusters is demonstrated. Besides modifying their optoe…
On the Study of Resonance Interactions and Splittings in the PH3 Molecule: ν1, ν3, ν2+ν4, and 2ν4 Bands
2002
International audience; The high-resolution (0.005 cm−1) Fourier transform infrared spectrum of PH3 is recorded and analyzed in the region of the fundamental stretching bands, ν1 and ν3. The ν2 + ν4 and 2ν4 bands are taken into account also. Experimental transitions are assigned to the ν1, ν3, ν2 + ν4, and 2ν4 bands with the maximum value of quantum number J equal to 15, 15, 13, and 15, respectively. a1–a2 splittings are observed and described up to the value of quantum number K equal to 10. The analysis of a1/a2 splittings is fulfilled with a Hamiltonian model which takes into account numerous resonance interactions among all the upper vibrational states
Thermo-optical studies of NaNbO3thin films
2007
Thermo-optical studies of sodium niobate NaNbO3 (NN) thin films, deposited by the pulsed laser ablation technique on Si/SrRuO3 substrates, were performed by spectroscopic ellipsometry in the temperature range 300-550°C. Optical constants at the room temperature were measured in the spectral range 250-1000 nm. Substantial changes in the refractive index temperature behaviour (taken at λ = 300 nm) were found at temperatures 370, 445, 503, 520, and 532°C, where the first and the last temperatures are the phase transitions P → R and S → T1, respectively. Other temperatures (445, 503, and 520°C) are suggested as the points of some local structural changes in the NN film.
Portable Spectroscopic Techniques for the Non-invasive Identification of two historical yellow pigments: Applications and Practical Challenges
2022
Abstract Decades of technological advances in instrumental analysis have transformed many techniques from laboratory in portable analytical tools with increasing their applicability in situ to the study of cultural heritage. It is known that the painting realisation varies from artist to artist, and the identification of the pigments provides a decisive contribution to trace their authenticity and to support an appropriate restoration work. However, in some cases, due to the complexity of painting composition, it is difficult to distinguish between pigments having a similar chemical composition and colour. Here, a systematic study through combined use of portable non-invasive spectroscopic …
InN thin film lattice dynamics by grazing incidence inelastic x-ray scattering.
2011
Achieving comprehensive information on thin film lattice dynamics so far has eluded well established spectroscopic techniques. We demonstrate here the novel application of grazing incidence inelastic x-ray scattering combined with ab initio calculations to determine the complete elastic stiffness tensor, the acoustic and low-energy optic phonon dispersion relations of thin wurtzite indium nitride films. Indium nitride is an especially relevant example, due to the technological interest for optoelectronic and solar cell applications in combination with other group III nitrides.
High resolution study of AsHD2: Ground state and the three bending fundamental bands v(3), v(4), and v(6)
2006
International audience; For the first time the infrared spectrum of the AsHD2 molecule has been measured in the region of the bending fundamental bands v(3), v(4), and v(6) on a Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.0024 cm(-1) and analyzed. More than 5500 transitions with J(max) = 26 have been assigned and used both to obtain "ground state combination differences" and for the determination of upper state ro-vibrational energies of the triad (001000), (000100), and (000001). Rotational parameters including centrifugal distortion coefficients up to octic terms of the ground vibrational state were calculated by fitting more than 500 "ground state combination differences" with …
The Gaia-ESO Survey: membership and initial mass function of the. Velorum cluster
2016
Understanding the properties of young open clusters, such as the Initial Mass Function (IMF), star formation history and dynamic evolution, is crucial to obtain reliable theoretical predictions of the mechanisms involved in the star formation process. We want to obtain a list, as complete as possible, of confirmed members of the young open cluster Gamma Velorum, with the aim of deriving general cluster properties such as the IMF. We used all available spectroscopic membership indicators within the Gaia-ESO public archive together with literature photometry and X-ray data and, for each method, we derived the most complete list of candidate cluster members. Then, we considered photometry, gra…
The comparison of seven different methods to quantify the amorphous content of spray dried lactose
2006
The purpose of this work was to verify the usefulness, advantages and disadvantages of seven methods that are widely used to detect, and quantify the amorphous contents in pharmaceutical solids. Here, StepScan DSC, a type of modulated temperature calorimetry method, was applied for the first time to quantify amorphicity. The comparison of the analytical methods was undertaken with real (non-artificial) test samples, i.e. spray-dried lactose samples with various degrees of crystallinity. In these samples, it was essential that the amorphous and the crystalline portions are not present as separate particles, which is the case when physical (artificial) mixtures of totally amorphous and totall…
High-resolution FTIR spectra analysis of sulfur dioxide isotopologues
2019
In this thesis we considered the spectral properties of the sulfur dioxide. The experimental FTIR spectra of numerous sulfur dioxide isotopologues, 32S16O2, 34S16O2, 32S18O2 and 32S16O18O, were first recorded in the regions of fundamental, «hot», combination and overtone bands. The wide variability of the experimental conditions gave possibility to observe and identify for the first time transitions be¬ longing to the following of ro-vibrational bands: 3v2, 3v2 - v2, 2v2 - v2 bands of 32S16O2; 2v2 - v2 band of 34S16O2; v1 + v2, v2 + v3, v1 + v3, 2v1, 2v3 bands of 32S18O2; v1, v3, 2v1, v1 + v3, 2v3 bands of 32S16O18O. The inverse spectroscopic problems were solved for the studied states with…
