We report a femtosecond time-resolved study of water at the neat water-air interface. The O-H stretch vibrational lifetime of hydrogen-bonded interfacial water is measured using surface-specific 4th-order nonlinear optical spectroscopy with femtosecond infrared pulses. The vibrational lifetime in the frequency range of 3200 to 3500 cm(-1) is found to closely resemble that of bulk water, indicating ultrafast exchange of vibrational energy between surface water molecules and those in the bulk. 相似文献

The effect of sodium and calcium ions on zwitterionic and anionic phospholipids monolayers is investigated using vibrational sum-frequency generation in conjunction with surface pressure measurements and fluorescence microscopy. Sodium ions only subtly affect the monolayer structure, while the effect of calcium is large and depends strongly on the surface pressure. At low surface pressures (approximately 5 mN/m), the presence on Ca2+ results in the unexpected appearance of ordered domains. For pressures between approximately 5 and approximately 25 mN/m, Ca2+ ions induce disorder in the monolayer. For pressures exceeding 25 mN/m, calcium cations expand the monolayer, while simultaneously ordering the lipid chains. Interestingly, effects are similar for both zwitterionic lipids and negatively charged lipids. In both vibrational sum-frequency generation and surface tension measurements, the molecular signature of the association of Ca2+ with the lipids is evident from Ca2+-induced changes in the signals corresponding to area changes of 4 A2/lipid-precisely the surface area of a Ca2+ ion, with evidence for a change in lipid Ca2+ complexation at high pressures. 相似文献

Water molecules interact strongly with each other through hydrogen bonds. This efficient intermolecular coupling causes strong delocalization of molecular vibrations in bulk water. We study intermolecular coupling at the air/water interface and find intermolecular coupling 1) to be significantly reduced and 2) to vary strongly for different water molecules at the interface—whereas in bulk water the coupling is homogeneous. For strongly hydrogen‐bonded OH groups, coupling is roughly half of that of bulk water, due to the lower density in the near‐surface region. For weakly hydrogen‐bonded OH groups that absorb around 3500 cm?1, which are assigned to the outermost, yet hydrogen‐bonded OH groups pointing towards the liquid, coupling is further reduced by an additional factor of 2. Remarkably, despite the reduced structural constraints imposed by the interfacial hydrogen‐bond environment, the structural relaxation is slow and the intermolecular coupling of these water molecules is weak. 相似文献

In recent years, the complex and heterogeneous structure of ionic liquids has been demonstrated; however, the consequences on the dynamics have remained elusive. Here, we use femtosecond IR spectroscopy to elucidate the local structural dynamics in protic alkylammonium‐based ionic liquids. The structural relaxation after an ultrafast temperature increase, following vibrational excitation and subsequent relaxation of the N‐D (or N‐H) stretching vibration, is found to vary substantially between the ionic and hydrophobic subdomains. The dynamics in the ionic domains are virtually unaffected by the alkyl chain length and is, therefore, decoupled from viscosity. Equilibration within the hydrophobic subdomains, as evident from the dynamics of the C‐H stretching vibration, is faster than that in the ionic domains and shows a remarkably low thermal activation. 相似文献

Age-related diseases, like Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus, are characterized by protein misfolding and the subsequent pathological deposition of fibrillized protein, also called amyloid. Several classes of amyloid-inhibitors have recently been tested, traditionally under bulk conditions. However, it has become apparent that amyloid fibrils and oligomers assemble and exert their cytotoxic effect at cellular membranes, rather than in bulk solution. Knowledge is therefore required of inhibitor activity specifically at the phospholipid membrane interface. Here we show, using surface-specific sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM), that the commonly used (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is a much less efficient amyloid inhibitor at a phospholipid interface than in bulk solution. Moreover, EGCG is not able to disaggregate existing amyloid fibrils at a phospholipid interface, in contrast to its behavior in bulk. Our results show that interfaces significantly affect the efficiency of inhibition by EGCG inhibitors and should therefore be considered during the design and testing of amyloid inhibitors. 相似文献

A novel application of vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) is developed to study the molecular properties of the surface of submicron particles in suspension. The Rayleigh-Gans-Debye scattering theory is extended to extract the local molecular response from the macroscopic nonlinearly scattered spectral intensity. These results demonstrate the use of VSFG to investigate quantitatively the surface molecular properties of submicron particles, dispersed in solution. It provides information on the order and density of alkane chains and allows us to determine the elements of the local second-order surface susceptibility. 相似文献

The 266 nm photodissociation of bromoform adsorbed on an amorphous solid water (ASW) layer has been investigated for the first time under well-defined ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Time-of-flight (TOF) measurements indicate direct release of gas-phase Br, CHBr2, Br2, and CHBr species, with potential implications for stratospheric chemistry. Furthermore, new, ice-surface-mediated C-C (C2H2Br2) and C-O (CHBrO, CO) species are revealed in postirradiation temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and reflection absorption infrared (RAIR) spectra. A cross section of approximately 5 x 10(-20) cm2 is determined for bromoform photodissociation at 266 nm based on the integrated area of both the TOF spectra of Br and Br2 and the postirradiation TPD curves of CHBr3. The involvement of the free, non-hydrogen-bonded water groups at the ASW surface in the formation of the photoproducts is evident from the RAIRS results. 相似文献
