Atomic Spectroscopy: Effects of Temperature01:27

Atomic Spectroscopy: Effects of Temperature

1.2K
Atomization, converting samples into gas-phase atoms and ions, is essential for atomic spectroscopy. The flame temperature required for atomization affects the efficiency of the atomic spectroscopic methods by increasing the atomization efficiency and the relative population of the excited and ground states.
At thermal equilibrium, the relative populations of excited and ground state atoms can be estimated using the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution. For example, an increase in temperature...

IR Spectroscopy: Hooke's Law Approximation of Molecular Vibration

3.3K
A covalently bonded heteronuclear diatomic molecule can be modeled as two vibrating masses connected by a spring. The vibrational frequency of the bond can be expressed using an equation derived from Hooke's law, which describes how the force applied to stretch or compress a spring is proportional to the displacement of the spring. In this case, the atoms behave like masses, and the bond acts like a spring.
According to Hooke's law, the vibrational frequency is directly proportional to...

Phase Transitions: Melting and Freezing

11.7K
Heating a crystalline solid increases the average energy of its atoms, molecules, or ions, and the solid gets hotter. At some point, the added energy becomes large enough to partially overcome the forces holding the molecules or ions of the solid in their fixed positions, and the solid begins the process of transitioning to the liquid state or melting. At this point, the temperature of the solid stops rising, despite the continual input of heat, and it remains constant until all of the solid is...

The de Broglie Wavelength

25.7K
In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...

NMR Spectroscopy: Chemical Shift Overview

3.6K
The position of the absorption signal of a sample is reported relative to the position of the signal of tetramethylsilane (TMS), which is added as an internal reference while recording spectra. The difference between the absorption frequencies of the sample and TMS (in Hz) is divided by the spectrometer operating frequency (in MHz) to obtain a dimensionless quantity called the chemical shift. It is reported on the δ (delta) scale and expressed in parts per million.
For instance, the proton...

Standing Waves in a Cavity01:28

Standing Waves in a Cavity

1.7K
A household microwave and lasers are examples of standing electromagnetic waves in a cavity. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, it creates a cavity where standing waves are formed. The cavity between the two planes is analogous to a stretched string held at the points x = 0 and x = L. Here, the distance 'L' between the two planes must be an integer multiple of half of the wavelength. The wavelengths that satisfy this condition are given by:

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials like tungsten disulfide (WS2) are crucial for next-generation nanoelectronic devices.
  • Understanding their physical properties, especially temperature dependence, is essential for device design and stability.

  • To conduct the first experimental investigation of temperature-dependent Raman spectra of single-layer WS2.
  • To determine the temperature coefficients of various vibrational modes in single-layer WS2.

Main Methods:

  • Micromechanical exfoliation was used to prepare single-layer WS2 samples.
  • Temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy was performed across a range of 77 K to 623 K.

Main Results:

  • The E(1)2g and A1g Raman modes of single-layer WS2 were observed to soften as temperature increased.
  • Calculated temperature coefficients for modes 2LA(M), E(1)2g, A1g, and A1g(M) + LA(M) were -0.008, -0.006, -0.006, and -0.01 cm(-1) K(-1), respectively.

Conclusions:

  • The observed softening of Raman modes is explained by a double resonance process active in atomically thin nanosheets.
  • This understanding of temperature effects in WS2 is applicable to other emerging 2D materials.
