Triplet state sublevel spectroscopy applied to proteins

Triplet state sublevel spectroscopy using optical detection of magnetic resonance (ODMR) in zero magnetic field can be successfully employed to study (i) the environment of tryptophan (Trp) residues in a protein by observing the position and structure of phosphorescence spectra, zero field ODMR transitions and triplet state sublevel kinetics, (ii) the energy transfer among Trp residues, and (iii) whether any cysteine (Cys) residue is within van der Waals distance of any Trp residue by studying the complex of the protein with methylmercury(II) iodide (CH₃HgI) which binds to Cys residues. These studies are particularly important where crystal structure study is not possible. Study of the S₁ state often gives ambiguous results since fluorescence is always broad and shows multi-exponential decay. Our results on bacteriophage lysozyme T4 which contains three Trp residues at positions 126, 138 and 158 are presented. Measurements were facilitated by the use of a mutated enzyme containing one or two Trp-Tyr substitutions. The results indicate that (i) Trp 126 and 158 are solvent exposed, whereas Trp 138 is buried in a hydrophobic environment, (ii)S ↔S non-radiative energy transfer takes place predominantly from Trp 126 to Trp 158, and (iii) only Trp-158 undergoes a heavy atom perturbation, which affects selectively the z-sublevel (z is an out-of-plane axis of the indole plane) as a result of CH₃HgI binding to nearby Cys 97. We suggest that the Hg atom is located on the z-axis of Trp 158 in the complex. This interpretation is based on our investigations on the effect of orientation of heavy atom perturbers in some naphthalene-crown ether metal ion complexes.     

Frequency and molecular-mass-dependent nonexponential proton NMR relaxation in polymer melts

A theoretical treatment of the nonexponential relaxation behavior of the different proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation processes in polymer melts is presented. Formulas are derived for a three-component model given by two versions and a homogeneous distribution of correlation times. The theoretical results were tested with measurements of T₁, T_2e, and T₂ as functions of frequency and molecular mass in linear fractionated polyethylene samples. While the T₁ relaxation always yields exponential magnetization decays, the T_2e and T₂ measurements show biexponential relaxation behavior. From the calculations it was found that the correlation time of the local motion is independent of the molecular mass, whereas the correlation time of the slowest motional process increases with M^2.8_w for the three-component model and with M^2.2_w for the distribution of correlation times, respectively. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Symmetric Eighth Algebraic Order Methods with Minimal Phase-Lag for the Numerical Solution of the Schrödinger Equation

In this paper some new eighth algebraic order symmetric eight-step methods are introduced. For these methods a direct formula for the computation of the phase-lag is given. Based on this formula, the calculation of free parameters is done in order the phase-lag to be minimal. The new methods have better stability properties than the classical one. Numerical illustrations on the radial Schrödinger equation indicate that the new method is more efficient than older ones.     

Photomagnetic effect in bilayer two-dimensional electron–hole systems

In tilted magnetic fields a bilayer electron–hole system is found to generate a photocurrent under terahertz radiation as the system is tuned to electron cyclotron resonance conditions. The photoinduced current amplitude oscillates with the magnetic field in correlation with Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations for electrons. The phenomenon is accounted for by a photomagnetic effect in electron–hole systems in the quantum Hall regime and has potentialities for terahertz detection and spectroscopy.     

Adatom Hypothesis as a Predominant Mechanism of Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering: A Review of Experimental Argumentation

A contemporary review of research concerning the mechanism of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is presented and it is stated that this problem is yet to be solved. The necessity to yet once again analyze some of the familiar experimental observations and the deep-rooted beliefs and revise quantitative evaluations of SERS enhancement via major mechanisms (electromagnetic and chemical) with allowance made for most important experimental characteristics of SERS is substantiated. The characteristics are enumerated and the role they play in the above evaluations is sketched. Attention is focused mainly on electrochemical aspects of SERS problem, which to a large extent define the content and salient features of SERS and provide basic experimental justification for the so-called adatom hypothesis.__________Translated from Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 8, 2005, pp. 899–935.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Lazorenko-Manevich.In memory of Vladislav Vladimirovich Marinyuk

Ultrafast carrier dynamics in purified and as-grown single-walled carbon nanotube films

Ultrafast time-resolved optical transmissions in purified and as-grown single-walled carbon nanotube films are measured at a temperature of 200K. The signal of the purified sample shows a crossover from photobleaching to photoabsorption. The former and the latter are interpreted as the state filling and the red shift of the π-plasmon, respectively. The signal of the as-grown sample can be perfectly fitted by a single-exponential with a time constant of 232fs. The disappearance of the negative component in the as-grown sample is attributed to the charge transfer between the semiconducting nanotubes and the impurities.
