چکیده

We present gas-phase infrared spectra of tantalum cluster cations containing 6-20 atoms. Infrared multiple photon dissociation of their complexes with argon atoms is used to obtain vibrational spectra in the region between 90 and 305 cm(-1). Many spectra have features in common with the vibrational spectra of the lighter homologs, vanadium and niobium, pointing to a common cluster growth mechanism.

Infrared spectroscopy of niobium oxide cluster cations in a molecular beam: identifying the cluster structures.

Infrared spectra of niobium oxide cluster cations are measured via IR multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy in the 400-1650 cm(-1) region. The cluster cations are obtained directly from a laser vaporization source and irradiated with the infrared light emitted by a free electron laser. For those oxide clusters that fragment after excitation, the IR spectra are recorded by measuring the clus...

Theoretical Studies of the Vibrational Spectra and Molecular Structures of Dosulepin and Doxepin

Dosulepin and doxepin are tricyclic antidepressants. The molecular geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, quantum chemical parameters and thermodynamic properties of dosulepin and doxepin were calculated by Generalized Gradient Approximation methods developed by Perdew and Wang (GGA-PW91) and Becke-Lee-Yang-Parr (GGA-BLYP) in the gas phase and solution media. The local reactivity of thes...

Vibrational spectra of small silicon monoxide cluster cations measured by infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopyw

The first gas-phase infrared spectra of silicon monoxide cations (SiO)n , n = 3–5, using multiple photon dissociation in the 550–1250 cm 1 frequency range, are reported. All clusters studied here fragment via loss of a neutral SiO unit. The experimental spectra are compared to simulated linear absorption spectra from calculated low energy isomers for each cluster. This analysis indicates that a...

Infrared spectroscopy and binding geometries of oxygen atoms bound to cationic tantalum clusters.

The binding of isolated oxygen atoms to small tantalum clusters is investigated using vibrational spectroscopy. Infrared spectra of Ta(n)O(0,1,2)(+) (n = 6-11) are reported in the range of 90-1100 cm(-1), comprising both the internal cluster modes and the adatom's vibrations. The vibrational spectra are compared to the results of DFT calculations for n = 6-8, which show that the oxygen atoms bi...
