Dispersion spectrum

Our short review of standardization procedures starts again with illumination. Figure 1.4 shows the dispersed spectrum of the light source which is most relevant for observers daylight. Most instruments use incandescent lamps that emit very weakly in the blue and UV regions and are therefore well suited in situations where no fluorescence should be excited.

Neville and Bradley 79) were first to report that DNA induced Cotton effects in the optical rotatory dispersion spectrum of acridine orange. The investigation of DNA-induced Cotton effects has been extended to other aminoacridines. According to Peacock 80), aminoacridines may be divided into two groups. The DNA-induced ICD of the first class (aminoacridines having a 3-amino group) increases steeply and cooperatively with increasing amounts of bound aminoacridine /% where r is... 

The optical rotatory dispersion spectrum of RNase has been measured many times. The details of its shape and the accessible wavelength range vary with the authors and with time as the instruments improve. The general outlines are now well recognized and some typical spectra...

The main feature about molten high polymers (molecular weights higher than about 104) concerns the broadness of the relaxation spectrum that characterises the viscoelastic response of these systems. This broad two-dispersion spectrum may spread over a range of relaxation times going from about 10 9 up to several seconds [4]. It is well illustrated from the modulus of relaxation observed after applying a sudden stress to the polymer the resulting sudden deformation of the sample is then kept constant and the applied stress is released in order to avoid the flow of the polymer. For example, the release of the constraint oxy(t) is expressed as a function of the shear modulus of relaxation Gxy(t) ... 

To further assess the fate of the molecules in the excited state, we attempted to observe the fluorescence signal, but the signal was so weak that a quantitative measurement of the dispersed spectrum was impossible using our existing setup. However, by recording the decay profile, the fluorescence lifetimes were obtained...

The dielectric constant is a natural choice of order parameter to study freezing of dipolar liquids, because of the large change in the orientational polarizability between the liquid and solid phases. The dielectric relaxation time was calculated by fitting the dispersion spectrum of the complex permittivity near resonance to the Debye model of orientational relaxation. In the Debye dispersion relation (equation (3)), ij is the frequency of the applied potential and t is the orientational (rotational) relaxation time of a dipolar molecule. The subscript s refers to static permittivity (low frequency limit, when the dipoles have sufficient time to be in phase with the applied field). The subscript oo refers to the optical permittivity (high frequency limit) and is a measure of the induced component of the permittivity.

Figure 15-12 shows an example of an energy-dispersed spectrum the abscissa is energy in keV (from about 5 to almost 9 keV) and the ordinate is the number of counts (full scale = 50,000 counts) received in each channel in a certain time. This spectrum is the analog of the wavelength-dispersed spectrum of Fig. 15-3. 

The reader may wonder why an energy-dispersed spectrum as shown in Fig. 15-12 does not also contain the various hkl diffraction lines of the specimen, like the energy-dispersive diffraction pattern of Fig. 7-23. After all, the experimental arrangements for diffraction and spectroscopy are similar. Spectra sometimes do contain diffraction lines. Ordinarily, however, they are not observed because spectrometers do not contain collimators. The resulting crossfire of diffracted beams means that the angle 6 is not defined the diffracted radiation is therefore not peaked at particular energies but is merely spread over the background. 

Let me first explain the manner by which we determined the absolute configuration of 104 as 35,US .101,102 At the time of the structure determination of 104, Nishida et al. proposed the 35-configuration on the basis of its ORD (optical rotatory dispersion) spectrum coupled with NMR studies employing a chiral shift reagent. No information was available to assign the absolute configuration at C-ll,... 

In spectrographs, the dispersing element is immobile and the spatially dispersed spectrum is recorded on a photographic plate or on a linear array charge-coupled device (CCD) detector.
