Journal ArticleDOI
Laser-induced fluorescence and Raman spectra of chlorine and bromine molecules isolated in inert matrices
TL;DR: Fluorescence spectra have been obtained from halogen molecules isolated in inert matrices at 15 K, leading to matrix values of ωe, ωexe, and T0, which are compared to the gas phase values as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulsed laser evaporated boron atom reactions with methane. 2. Infrared spectra of H2CBH2, H2CBH, HCBH, and HBCBH in solid argon
TL;DR: In this paper, the predicted primary insertion product CH 3 BH radical was tentatively identified by its strongest calculated infrared and, a B-H stretching mode at 2561 cm -1
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix Infrared Spectra and Density Functional Calculations of ScCO, ScCO-, and ScCO+
Mingfei Zhou,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used isotopic substitution as well as density functional calculations to identify the stretching vibrations of the ScCO molecule in solid argon and/or neon matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared vibronic absorption spectrum and spin–orbit calculations of the upper spin–orbit component of the Au3 ground state
TL;DR: In this paper, the spin-orbit effect stabilizes the D3h structure and quenches Jahn-Teller distortion of a light-ablated gold trimer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix reactions of germane and oxygen atoms. Infrared spectroscopic evidence for germylene-water complex, germanone, germanol, hydroxygermylene, and germanic acid
Robert Withnall,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an extensive infrared study of the photochemical reaction of germane and ozone has been performed in solid argon, and isotopic substitution at all positions and filtered photolysis provide a basis for identification of seven molecular product species.
