Besides the atomic reactions of the group 16 elements such as oxygen, sulfur, and the previously mentioned selenium, the reactions of tellurium atoms with alkenes have also been reported. In the case of tellurium, the ultraviolet photolysis of dimethyl telluride (DMT) is a usable source of 3P2j0 tellurium atoms (69PCS304). In flashed mixtures of DMT vapor (10—3 10 1 torr with COz diluent) using kinetic absorption spectroscopy, intense absorptions at 2143 2259 A, which correspond to known transitions of Te(3i>2), and at 2386 and 2383 A corresponding to Te(3/)1) and (VJ0), respectively, were observed (69JA5695).

Conventional NMR spectra (one-dimensional spectra) are plots of intensity vs. frequency in two-dimensional spectroscopy intensity is plotted as a function of two frequencies, usually called F1 and Fr There are various ways of representing such a spectrum on paper, but the one most usually used is to make a contour plot in which the intensity of the peaks is represented by contour lines drawn at suitable intervals, in the same way as a topographical map. The position of each peak is specified by two frequency co-ordinates corresponding to Fl and F2. Two-dimensional NMR spectra are always arranged so that the F2 co-ordinates of the peaks correspond to those found in the normal onedimensional spectrum, and this relation is often emphasized by plotting the onedimensional spectrum alongside the F2 axis.

Fig. 10 Raman characterisation of carbon distributions of (left) GDC-Ni and (right) YSZ-Ni cermet anodes. Clear differences in the Raman spectra (top) are observed showing a pronounced difference in the deposition characteristics between the two anode compositions. The optical images (middle) correspond to the areas mapped using Raman spectroscopy. Intensity maps generated from the G peak of carbon (bottom) show there is there much less carbon deposited on the GDC-Ni composite compared to the YSZ.-Ni Figure reproduced from reference [98].

Due to the very high intensity of the laser beams and their coherent nature they may be used in a variety of ways where controlled energy is required. Lasers are used commercially for excitation with a specific energy, e.g. in Raman spectroscopy or isotope separation. 

The scattering techniques, dynamic light scattering or photon correlation spectroscopy involve measurement of the fluctuations in light intensity due to density fluctuations in the sample, in this case from the capillary wave motion. The light scattered from thermal capillary waves contains two observables. The Doppler-shifted peak propagates at a rate such that its frequency follows Eq. IV-28 and...

SERS. A phenomenon that certainly involves the adsorbent-adsorbate interaction is that of surface-enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy, or SERS. The basic observation is that for pyridine adsorbed on surface-roughened silver, there is an amazing enhancement of the resonance Raman intensity (see Refs. 124—128). More recent work has involved other adsorbates and colloidal... 

Wliat does one actually observe in the experunental spectrum, when the levels are characterized by the set of quantum numbers n. Mj ) for the nonnal modes The most obvious spectral observation is simply the set of energies of the levels another important observable quantity is the intensities. The latter depend very sensitively on the type of probe of the molecule used to obtain the spectmm for example, the intensities in absorption spectroscopy are in general far different from those in Raman spectroscopy. From now on we will focus on the energy levels of the spectmm, although the intensities most certainly carry much additional infonnation about the molecule, and are extremely interesting from the point of view of theoretical dynamics. 

Because of the two frequencies, Wj and Wg, that enter into the Raman spectrum, Raman spectroscopy may be thought of as a two-dimensional fomi of spectroscopy. Nomially, one fixes oij and looks at the intensity as a frmction of tOj, however, one may vary tOj and probe the intensity as a frmction of tOj - tOg. This is called a Raman excitation profile.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), also called electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), is described in section Bl.25,2.1. The most connnonly employed x-rays are the Mg Ka (1253.6 eV) and the A1 Ka (1486.6 eV) lines, which are produced from a standard x-ray tube. Peaks are seen in XPS spectra that correspond to the bound core-level electrons in the material. The intensity of each peak is proportional to the abundance of the emitting atoms in the near-surface region, while the precise binding energy of each peak depends on the chemical oxidation state and local enviromnent of the emitting atoms. The Perkin-Elmer XPS handbook contains sample spectra of each element and bindmg energies for certain compounds [58]. 

Flowever, in order to deliver on its promise and maximize its impact on the broader field of chemistry, the methodology of reaction dynamics must be extended toward more complex reactions involving polyatomic molecules and radicals for which even the primary products may not be known. There certainly have been examples of this notably the crossed molecular beams work by Lee [59] on the reactions of O atoms with a series of hydrocarbons. In such cases the spectroscopy of the products is often too complicated to investigate using laser-based techniques, but the recent marriage of intense syncluotron radiation light sources with state-of-the-art scattering instruments holds considerable promise for the elucidation of the bimolecular and photodissociation dynamics of these more complex species. 

Section BT1.2 provides a brief summary of experimental methods and instmmentation, including definitions of some of the standard measured spectroscopic quantities. Section BT1.3 reviews some of the theory of spectroscopic transitions, especially the relationships between transition moments calculated from wavefiinctions and integrated absorption intensities or radiative rate constants. Because units can be so confusing, numerical factors with their units are included in some of the equations to make them easier to use. Vibrational effects, die Franck-Condon principle and selection mles are also discussed briefly. In the final section, BT1.4. a few applications are mentioned to particular aspects of electronic spectroscopy. 

While a laser beam can be used for traditional absorption spectroscopy by measuring / and 7q, the strength of laser spectroscopy lies in more specialized experiments which often do not lend themselves to such measurements. Other techniques are connnonly used to detect the absorption of light from the laser beam. A coimnon one is to observe fluorescence excited by the laser. The total fluorescence produced is nonnally proportional to the amount of light absorbed. It can be used as a measurement of concentration to detect species present in extremely small amounts. Or a measurement of the fluorescence intensity as the laser frequency is scaimed can give an absorption spectrum. This may allow much higher resolution than is easily obtained with a traditional absorption spectrometer. In other experiments the fluorescence may be dispersed and its spectrum detennined with a traditional spectrometer. In suitable cases this could be the emission from a single electronic-vibrational-rotational level of a molecule and the experimenter can study how the spectrum varies with level. 

A related measure of the intensity often used for electronic spectroscopy is the oscillator strengdi,/ This is a dimensionless ratio of the transition intensity to tliat expected for an electron bound by Hooke s law forces so as to be an isotropic hanuonic oscillator. It can be related either to the experimental integrated intensity or to the theoretical transition moment integral ... 

The interpretation of emission spectra is somewhat different but similar to that of absorption spectra. The intensity observed m a typical emission spectrum is a complicated fiinction of the excitation conditions which detennine the number of excited states produced, quenching processes which compete with emission, and the efficiency of the detection system. The quantities of theoretical interest which replace the integrated intensity of absorption spectroscopy are the rate constant for spontaneous emission and the related excited-state lifetime.
