Henry s group is also involved in theoretical studies to determine sources of local mode overtone intensity. These investigators have developed a very successful approach that uses their harmonically coupled anharmonic oscillator local mode model to obtain the vibrational wavefunctions, and ab initio calculations to obtain the dipole moment functions. The researchers have applied these calculations to relatively large molecules with different types of X-H oscillator. Recently they have compared intensities from their simple model to intensities from sophisticated variational calculations for the small molecules H20 and H2CO. For example, for H2CO they generated a dipole moment function in terms of all six vibrational degrees of freedom.244 This comparison has allowed them to determine the quality of basis set needed to calculate dipole moment... [Pg.271]

At even lower temperatures, some unusual properties of matter are displayed. Consequently, new experimental and theoretical methods are being created to explore and describe chemistry in these regimes. In order to account for zero-point energy effects and tunneling in simulations, Voth and coworkers developed a quantum molecular dynamics method that they applied to dynamics in solid hydrogen. In liquid helium, superfluidity is displayed in He below its lambda point phase transition at 2.17 K. In the superfluid state, helium s thermal conductivity dramatically increases to 1000 times that of copper, and its bulk viscosity drops effectively to zero. Apkarian and coworkers have recently demonstrated the disappearance of viscosity in superfluid helium on a molecular scale by monitoring the damped oscillations of a 10 A bubble as a function of temperature. These unique properties make superfluid helium an interesting host for chemical dynamics. [Pg.12]

With the advent of rapid-scan and high-frequency pulse methods, more direct approaches for evaluating annihilation mechanisms and dynamics have been developed. Early work of van Duyne, using triple potential steps with very short step times, allowed estimation of the annihilation rate constant for DPA anion and cation radicals [29]. More recently, Wightman and coworkers have used multicycle generation of ECL at microelectrodes to determine annihilation rate constants and ECL efficiencies [41, 42]. Figure 7 shows the normalized ECL intensity from DPA at a 1-pm Pt disk as a function of time (t/tf) at different oscillation frequencies. The intensity increases rapidly after the potential is switched, and then decays as the reactants are depleted. As the oscillation frequency is increased, the annihilation occurs closer to the electrode surface, the intensity-time profile broadens and... [Pg.403]

In recent years, several theoretical and experimental attempts have been performed to develop methods based on oscillations of supported drops or bubbles. For example, Tian et al. used quadrupole shape oscillations in order to estimate the equilibrium surface tension, Gibbs elasticity, and surface dilational viscosity [203]. Pratt and Thoraval [204] used a pulsed drop rheometer for measurements of the interfacial tension relaxation process of some oil soluble surfactants. The pulsed drop rheometer is based on an instantaneous expansion of a pendant water drop formed at the tip of a capillary in oil. After perturbation an interfacial relaxation sets in. The interfacial pressure decay is followed as a function of time. The oscillating bubble system uses oscillations of a bubble formed at the tip of a capillary. The amplitudes of the bubble area and pressure oscillations are measured to determine the dilational elasticity while the frequency dependence of the phase shift yields the exchange of matter mechanism at the bubble surface [205,206]. [Pg.345]
