Microwave Rotational Studies of Small Clusters
type: CreativeWork
description: The rotational spectra of several small weakly-bonded clusters are examined here. The primary emphasis is on the observation of and results for complexes containing more than two monomer units. Analysis and understanding of these larger clusters regarding structure, dynamics, energetics, and electrical rearrangements in the monomers is shown to be a next step towards bridging the gap between the gas and condensed phases. The clusters, or complexes, have been studied using pulsed-nozzle Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. The technique as was originally developed has been modified, with these improvements commented on.
