Vibrating modules

Hyperfine coupling constants provide a direct experimental measure of the distribution of unpaired spin density in paramagnetic molecules and can serve as a critical benchmark for electronic wave functions [1,2], Conversely, given an accurate theoretical model, one can obtain considerable information on the equilibrium stmcture of a free radical from the computed hyperfine coupling constants and from their dependenee on temperature. In this scenario, proper account of vibrational modulation effects is not less important than the use of a high quality electronic wave function. 

The coupling mechanism given above for mixing excited u terms into g electronic terms through vibrational modulation of the ligand field is likely to be less efficient if terms of different spin are involved. In accordance with this, it is observed that spin-forbidden bands are a good deal narrower than are the spin-allowed ones dealt with above, corresponding to reduced overlap of available vibrational structure. Half-widths of a few hundred to one thousand cm-1 seem to be involved. 

The origin of this strongly fluctuating mode is proposed to be the zone folded branch of the (3 mode. Zone folding occurs due to the above mentioned structural distortion [55], The (3 mode is a good candidate for the respective T-point phonon, as this Tl-Cl in-phase vibration modulates the interlayer Ti-Ti distance and should therefore effectively modulate the energy of the interlayer with respect to the chain orbitals.

Apart from the bilinear connection between acoustic and optical vibrations, the usual phonon anharmonicity takes place in the chain. The acoustic vibrations modulate the distances between A atoms and thus influence the frequency of proton vibrations on hydrogen bonds. The proton vibration frequency can be presented as... 

The observed proton transfer times of the order of 50 fs have already been discussed in earlier work with respect to the importance of skeletal vibrations [16-18, 46[. It was proposed that a reduction in the distance between the proton donor and the acceptor results in a decrease in the energetic barrier between the enol-and the keto-form. At times when the barrier is suppressed the proton can tunnel or jump from its enol position to the keto site. In the case of HBO it was suggested that, in particular, the in-plane bending vibration modulates the donor-acceptor distance and thereby enables the proton movement [17]. This model was then applied to MS and to 2-(2 -hydroxyphenyl)-5-pheny]oxazole [18, 46]. However, due to insufficient time resolution of these experiments it was not possible to give experimental evidence for this model. 

One application of PI-QTST to PT has been to study a model A-H-A PT solute in a polar solvent [77]. This computational study provided a detailed examination of the specific features of PT, including the competition between proton tunneling and solvent activation, the influence from intramolecular vibrational modulation of the PT barrier, and the role of electronic polarizability of both the solute and the solvent. Changes in the total quantum activation free energy, and hence the reaction probability, due to these different effects were calculated (cf. Fig. 18). By virtue of these studies, it was found that to fully understand the rate of a given PT reaction, one must deal with a number of complex, nonlinear interactions. Examples of such interactions include the nonlinear dependence of the solute dipole on the position of the proton, the coupling of the solute dipole to both the proton coordinate and to other vibrational modes, and the intrinsically nonlinear interactions arising from both solute and solvent polarizability effects. Perhaps the most important conclusion...

The effect of the vibrationally modulated quadrupole term has often been ignored in analysing forbidden in ra-red bands (ie the second term in this equation) studies of CS2 have shown that it is responsible for about 60% of the absorption intensity( 10j...
