Vibrational Relaxation and Delocalization in Molecular Crystals and Biological Systems

Abstract

dc:description

Perturbations to the vibrational Hamiltonian of isolated gas molecules resulting from a crystalline environment are examined. FTIR is used to study the effects of two different crystal fields on the vibrational modes of perylene and Picosecond Coherent Raman Scattering (ps CARS) is applied to the investigation of vibrational dynamics of hydrogen bonded molecular crystals.
