Flavonoids are secondary metabolites commonly found in plants. They are known for their
antioxidant properties, are part of the defense mechanisms of plants and are responsible for …

Understanding and utilizing the dynamic quantum properties of metal ions is the frontier of
many next generation technologies. One property in particular, magnetic relaxation, is a …

The vibrational cooling of azobenzene after photoisomerization is investigated by time
resolved IR spectroscopy with femtosecond time resolution. Transient difference spectra …

The multifunctional protein cytochrome c (cyt c) plays key roles in electron transport and
apoptosis, switching function by modulating bonding between a heme iron and the sulfur in …

Photochemical hole burning is a special type of saturation spectroscopy in the optical
domain having many analogies with NMR methods. The holes, which are burnt with laser …

Excitation and detection of coherent optic phonons by impulsive stimulated Raman
scattering (ISRS) is reported. The technique permits femtosecond time-resolved …

The temperature dependence of the internal stretch vibrational mode of CO chemisorbed on
Ni (111) has been studied with the use of infrared spectroscopy. The width of the absorption …

Molecular vibrations couple to visible light only weakly, have small mutual interactions, and
hence are often ignored for non-linear optics. Here we show the extreme confinement …

Two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectroscopy of the symmetric and asymmetric C≡ O
stretching vibrations of Rh (CO) 2 acac in hexane has been used to investigate vibrational …

We report detailed measurements of the lineshape and intensity of the CO stretching
vibration in the adsorption system Pt {111}-CO using IR reflection-absorption spectroscopy …
