Quasiline fluorescence and absorption spectra of NH-isomers of octamethylisobacteriochlorin

Quasiline fluoresence and fluorescence excitation spectra of NH-isomers of 2,2,7,7,12,13,17,18-octamethylisobacteriochlorin (cis- and trans-) in polycrystalline matrices in n-hexane and n-octane at 4.2 K are obtained. A vibration analysis of the spectra in combination with the data of quasiline spectra of cyano-substituted octaethylisobacteriochlorin and octamethylporphin permitted a qualitative interpretation of the vibronic spectra of NH-isomers. It is inferred that for a trans-isomer, the 0–0 transition S₂⇃S₀ is localized in the region of electron-vibrational S₁⇃S₀ transitions; the interval S₂-S₁ has a magnitude of about 1300 cm⁻¹.

Fine fluorescence and absorption spectra of hypericin in a polymer matrix at a temperature of 4.2 K

Monochromatic photoexcitation and selective registration in bands of purely electronic S₁↔S₀ transitions resulted in fine fluorescence and absorption (fluorescence excitation) spectra of hypericin in polyvinylbutyral at a temperature of 4.2 K. Vibration analysis of the spectra is done and conclusions are made about the form of many normal vibrations. It is found that the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in the hypericin structure has a substantial effect on the relative position of the electronic vibrational levels of the pigment molecule.

Spectral-luminescent properties and photoinduced transformations of bisanthene and bisanthenequinone

Based on the study of photochemical transformations of bisanthene in oxygen-containing solutions, it was established that the final product of this reaction is bisanthenequinone. It is shown that in the course of this oxidation reaction the intermediate compounds endomonoperoxide and bisanthene endobiperoxide are formed. Quantum-chemical calculation of the geometrical structure and electronic spectra of the endoperoxides has shown that they have a nonplanar structure, and their absorption spectra experience a large hypsochromic shift. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of solutions of bisanthene in different solvents at 300 and 77 K were investigated. The large Stokes shift of the fluorescence spectra of the solutions of bisanthene in benzene and in its methyl derivatives is explained by the action of intermolecular interactions. The quasi-line fluorescence spectra of solutions of bisanthene in the matrices of saturated hydrocarbons were recorded.

Absorption,fluorescence, and fluorescence excitation spectra of free molecules of indole and its derivatives

We have obtained and analyzed the absorption, fluorescence, and fluorescence excitation spectra of indole vapor, N-acetyl-L-tryptophan vapor, and 3-indole aldehyde vapor. From analysis of the dependence of the fluorescence spectrum of the free indole molecules on the wavelength of the exciting radiation λ_ex, it follows that emission of fluorescence occurs when the molecules undergo a transition from the one electronically excited state ¹L_b. The fluorescence spectra of the studied compounds are insignificantly different, suggesting a major role for the indole chromophore in formation of the compounds. The absorption spectrum of N-acetyl-L-tryptophan, in which the group of atoms is added to the indole ring through a-C-C bond, is similar to the spectrum of indole, while the spectrum of 3-indole aldehyde is significantly different from the indole spectrum due to the effect of the C=O group conjugated with the indole ring. The fluorescence excitation spectra are considerably different from the absorption spectra. This is associated with the strong dependence of the quantum yield for the free molecules on λ_ex. Qualitatively, they are mirror-symmetric to the fluorescence spectra of the stodied compounds. Analysis of the data obtained provides a basis for assuming that in the case of free molecules of indole and its derivatives, the ¹L_a absorption in the extreme long-wavelength region of the spectrum does not overlap ¹L_b absorption. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 74, No. 2, pp. 218–222, March–April, 2007.     

Absorption and fluorescence spectra of hybrid silicon-organic materials in solutions and films

The spectroscopic characteristics of hybrid organic-inorganic films and solutions of ethoxysilicon-containing amidophosphate ligands in acetonitrile have been investigated. Inhomogeneous broadening of the absorption and fluorescence spectra which is characterized by the spectral dependence of the fluorescence and fluorescence excitation bands on the excitation and registration wavelength, respectively, is associated with the presence of a set of -(Si-O)_n- siloxane structures with various terminal fragments in both the films and solutions. The established general spectral rules are discussed with allowance for the characteristic features of the electronic structure of silicon-organic compounds containing an oxygen atom the unshared electron pair of which ensures the delocalization of the electron density over the siloxane chain.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 71, No. 6, pp. 788–792, November–December, 2004.This revised version was published online in April 2005 with a corrected cover date.     

Analysis of the Electronic Vibrational Spectra of Bisanthene by Calculating Normal Modes

At 4.2 K, the quasiline fluorescence and fluorescence-excitation spectra (in the region of the S ₁ S ₀- and S ₂ S ₀ transitions) of bisanthene in n-hexane have been obtained. Using the MO/M8ST method, the calculation of the A _g normal modes in the S ₀, S ₁, and S ₂ electronic states was carried out for the bisanthene molecule; the relative intensities of the transitions in the corresponding vibronic spectra were also calculated. The analysis of the results of calculations and experiment made it possible to draw conclusions on the form of the modes for a number of normal vibrations which are active in the bisanthene vibronic spectra.     

Vibrational spectra and normal coordinate analysis on structure of chlorambucil and thioguanine

A normal coordinate analysis on chlorambucil and thioguanine has been carried out with a set of symmetry coordinates following Wilson’s F-G matrix method. The potential constants evaluated for these molecules are found to be in good agreement with literature values thereby confirming the vibrational assignments. To check whether the chosen set of vibrational frequencies contribute maximum to the potential energy associated with the normal coordinates of the molecule, the potential energy distribution has been evaluated.

Analysis of electronic vibration spectra of tetrabenzoporphin molecules on the basis of calculations of their normal vibrations

Quasi-line fluorescence and fluorescence-excitation spectra of tetrabenzoporphin (H₂TBP) and its deuterated derivative (D₂TBP) in n-octane at 77 K were measured and analyzed. A calculation of normal vibrations of the H₂TBP and D₂TBP molecules has been performed. The normal vibrations of these molecules were calculated with the use of the valence force fields of porphin and phenanthrene (the direct spectral problem was solved). Good agreement between the calculated and measured frequencies of the investigated normal vibrations has been obtained without correction of the transfered force constants. A detailed interpretation of the fluorescence spectra obtained is presented. It is shown that on deuteration of H₂TBP, the behavior of the quasi-lines in the fluorescence-excitation spectra in the region of resonance with the S₂←S₀ transition becomes more complex.

Emission and absorption spectra of a Λ type three-level atom driven by a two-mode cavity field with nonlinearities

An analytical expression of the emission and absorption spectra for a Λ type three-level cavity-bound atom interacting with a two-mode cavity field is given using the dressed states of the system. We take into account explicitly the nonlinearities of both the field and the intensity-dependent atom-field coupling. The characteristics of the emission and absorption spectra when one of the two-mode cavity fields is in a binomial state and the other is in a squeezed coherent state are exhibited. The effects of the mean number of photons, detuning, and the kinds of nonlinearities on the spectra are analyzed.

提出探测复杂力学振动系统耦合振动模式的方法:通过测量力学振动系统中某一易于探测的振动模式对外力的响应行为,在该振动模式应变落后于应力的相位差-频率谱(表观机械能耗散-频率谱)中,除了能观察到与被测量振动模式本征频率所对应的相位变化外,与被测量振动模式耦合的其他振动模式也表现为共振吸收峰;从共振吸收峰的性质,如峰位、峰宽、峰高等可以得到相应耦合振动模式的本征频率、损耗以及耦合强度等信息.以倒扭摆力学系统为例,通过测量扭摆的扭转振动模式应变落后于应力的相位差-频率谱研究了扭摆系统中摆杆的进动振动模式.     

Calculation of Normal Vibrations of the Tetraazaporphin Molecule and Interpretation of Quasiline Spectra

Quasiline fluorescence and fluorescence-excitation spectra of tetraazaporphin and its N-deuterated derivative in n-octane at 77 K have been investigated, and the frequencies of normal vibrations in electronic states S ₀ and S ₁ have been determined. Calculation of normal vibrations of these molecules has been done and, on its basis, the experimental data are interpreted. It is shown that in the spectra, predominantly the totally symmetric vibrations of type A _g symmetry of the point D _2h symmetry group are active. Some activation of the nontotally symmetric B _1g vibrations in the fluorescence-excitation spectra is explained by the nonadiabatic interaction of the vibrational sublevels of the excited electronic state S ₁ with the purely electronic level S ₂.

Energy structure and absorption spectra of colloidal CdS nanocrystals in gelatin matrix

We investigate the energy structure of colloidal CdS nanocrystals by measuring the UV–vis absorption spectra. Nanocrystals were synthesized by sol–gel method in a gelatin matrix in the size range from 2.5 to 3.9 (±0.2) nm. In order to interpret the UV–vis absorption spectra we calculate the energy spectrum of electron quasi-stationary states using the model of open nanocrystal as well as the hole stationary spectrum in a two-band approach. It is shown that the main contribution to the absorption spectrum is made by interband transitions 1S_3/2→1S_e and 1P_3/2→1P_e, and its shape is determined by the size distribution of nanoparticles. For this system the estimated values of the effective masses of the heavy hole and light hole are 1.44m₀ and 0.28m₀, respectively.

Absorption and fluorescence of 8-azasteroids in the gas phase

Extensive studies of the spectral-luminescent characteristics of four 8-azasteroids and a model compound 2-(3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-isoquinolidene)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedion in the gas phase have been made. From the analysis of the dependences of the absorption spectra on the vapor pressure (T_low) and the fluorescence spectra on T_low and the exciting radiation wavelength (_exc) a conclusion on the presence in the vapors of the investigated 8-azasteroids of three absorption and fluorescence centers (S-, M-, and L-centers) has been drawn. The absorption spectra of these centers strongly overlap. Their long-wave absorption boundaries have been determined. The dependence of the fluorescence spectra of all three centers on _exc, which is inherent in rarefied gases of individual organic molecules, is observed. The S-centers are the molecules of the initial steroids, and the M- and L-centers are the molecules of thermo- and phototransformations of the initial steroids. The model compound in the gas phase is characterized by the same dependences of the fluorescence spectra on T_low and _exc as those inherent in 8-azasteroids. Taking into account the additional data obtained as a result of investigation of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of solutions of the substances extracted from vacuum cells after the investigation of 8-azasteroids and the model compound in the gas phase, conclusions on the nature of the M- and L-centers have been drawn.__________Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 72, No. 1, pp. 48–57, January–February, 2005.
