Quantum interferometry with complex molecules

چکیده
— This chapter reviews recent experiments on matter wave interferometry with large molecules. Starting from an elementary introduction to matter wave physics we discuss far-field diffraction and near-field interferometry with thermally excited many-body systems. We describe the constraints imposed by decoherence and dephasing effects, and present an outlook to the future challenges in macromolecule and cluster interferometry.

Solvent influence on the interaction of cis-PtCl2(NH3)2 complex and graphene: A theoretical study
In this study the interaction of cis-PtCl2(NH3)2 complex and graphene were investigated with MPW1PW91method in gas and solvent phases. The solvent effect was examined by the self-consistent reaction fieldtheory (SCRF) based on Polarizable Continuum Model (PCM). The selected solvents were chloroform,chlorobenzene, bromoethane, dimethyldisulfide, and dichloroethane. The solvent ...
متن کاملSpace- and time-resolved measurement of rotational wave packet revivals of linear gas molecules using single-shot supercontinuum spectral interferometry
Femtosecond laser-induced alignment and its periodic quantum revivals are measured in a range of linear gas molecules using an improved version of single-shot supercontinuum spectral interferometry. In particular, room temperature alignment revivals of hydrogen and deuterium molecules are measured for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, in a single shot. Wave packet collisional dephas...

متن کاملTheoretical insights into the adsorption behavior of CO molecules on the pure and Vn-doped BN nanotubes
Interaction of pure and Vn-doped (8, 0), (12, 0) and (16, 0) boron nitride nanotubes with CO molecules was studied using B3LYP/6-311++G(d) theoretical level. Substituting V instead of B atoms, increased the reactivity of nanotube. From the results, the complex stability depends on the direction and the number of the CO molecules interacted with the nanotube. In this work, the quantum...

Theellipticity (e) and h values of the Cr-CO bonds were calculated. The amount of pp-dp back-donation ofCr-CO bonds were illustrated by calculation of the magnitude of the quadrupole polarization of c...
