Development of Ultrafast Photochromic Organometallics and Photoinduced Linkage Isomerization of Arene Chromium Carbonyl Derivatives

February 20, 2009
Author(s)
Tung T. To, Edwin J. Heilweil, Duke Charles, Ruddick Kristie, Webster E. Charles, Burkey Theodore
We review recent studies of processes relevant to photoinduced linkage isomerization of organometallic systems with the goal of preparing organometallics with an efficient and ultrafast photochromic response. The organometallic system thus corresponds to

Raman Spectroscopic Determination of Electron Concentration in n-Type GaSb

November 19, 2008
Author(s)
James E. Maslar, Wilbur S. Hurst, C Wang
Phonon-plasmon coupled mode Raman spectra of n-type GaSb were measured at room temperature as a function of electron concentration. These spectra were obtained using an optical system based on 752.55 nm excitation. Utilization of this wavelength permits

High resolution spectroscopy using fiber-laser frequency combs

June 8, 2008
Author(s)
Ian R. Coddington, William C. Swann, Nathan R. Newbury
The output of a femtosecond fiber laser can be both spectrally broadened and stabilized, thereby providing a broadband coherent source in the near infrared. In the frequency domain, the result is a frequency comb with frequency stabilities at the

Broadband, frequency comb spectroscopy

May 4, 2008
Author(s)
Ian R. Coddington, William C. Swann, Nathan R. Newbury
A stabilized frequency comb provides a broadband array of highly resolved comb lines. Using a multiheterodyne technique, we measure the amplitude and phase of every comb line, allowing for massively parallel, high-resolution spectroscopy.

Gain-assisted superluminal optical solitons at very low light intensity

January 30, 2008
Author(s)
Lu Deng, Guoxiang Huang, C Hang
We show the possibility of generating gain-assisted superluminal optical solitons in a room- temperature three-state active Raman gain medium. We demonstrate both analytically and numerically that under appropriate conditions a signal field of very low

MACS-a new high intensity cold neutron spectrometer at NIST

J A Rodriguez, Daniel Adler, P C Brand, Collin L. Broholm, Jeremy Cook, Christoph Brocker, R Hammond, Z Huang, P Hundertmark, J W Lynn, N C Maliszewskyj, J Moyer, J Orndorff, Donald J. Pierce, T D Pike, G Scharfstein, S A Smee, Rodrigo Vilaseca
We describe a novel cold neutron spectrometer under development at NIST optimized for wave vector resolved spectroscopy with incident energies between 2.1 meV and 20 meV and energy resolution from 0.05 meV (Ei = 2.1 meV) to 3.0 meV (Ei = 20 meV). By using

Raman Spectroscopic Determination of Hole Concentration in p-Type GaSb

January 2, 2008
Author(s)
James E. Maslar, Wilbur S. Hurst, C Wang
Room temperature p-type GaSb bulk coupled mode spectra were measured as a function hole concentration. These spectra were obtained using an optical system based on 752.55 nm excitation in order to obtain more sensitivity to bulk GaSb coupled mode

Characterization of 3-Color CARS in a 2-Pulse Broadband CARS Spectrum

November 15, 2007
Author(s)
Young Jong Lee, Marcus T. Cicerone, Yuexin Liu
We present a new and simple approach to broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy that yields background-free vibrational spectra. We present evidence for a mechanism where two different frequency components in a continuum pulse

Raman Spectroscopy of n-Type and p-Type GaSb with Multiple Excitation Wavelengths

October 1, 2007
Author(s)
James E. Maslar, Wilbur S. Hurst, C Wang
The interpretation of Raman spectra of GaSb can be complicated by the presence of a so-called surface space-charge region (SSCR), resulting in an inhomogeneous near-surface Raman scattering environment. To fully interpret Raman spectra, it is important to

Energy-Level Alignment and Work Function Shifts for Thiol-Bound Monolayers of Conjugated Molecules Self-Assembled on Ag, Cu, Au, and Pt

July 1, 2007
Author(s)
Christopher D. Zangmeister, Laura B. Picraux, Roger D. van Zee, Yuxing Yao, J M. Tour
Photoemission spectra have been used to determine the energy-level alignment and work function of monolayers of 4,4'-bis-(phenylethynyl)benzenethiol, 2 naphthalene thiol, and 3-(naphthalen-2-yl)propane-1-thiol self-assembled on Ag, Cu, Au, and Pt. For each

Cholesterol/Phospholipid Interactions in Hybrid Bilayer Membranes

May 25, 2007
Author(s)
Dustin Levy, Kimberly Briggman
The interactions between cholesterol and saturated phospholipids in hybrid bilayer membranes (HBMs) were investigated using the interface-sensitive technique of vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy (VSFS). The unique sensitivity of VSFS to order/disorder

Characterization and Control of Lipid Layer Fluidity in Hybrid Bilayer Membranes

January 31, 2007
Author(s)
Neil A. Anderson, Lee J. Richter, John C. Stephenson, Kimberly A. Briggman
The main gel-to-liquid-crystal (LC) phase transition temperature, Tm, of the distal lipid layer in hybrid bilayer membranes (HBMs) under water was investigated using vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy (VSFS). VSFS has unique sensitivity to order
