Abstract:
Vibrational spectroscopy is a powerful technique to characterize the near-equilibrium dynamics of molecules in the gas and the condensed phase. This contribution summarizes efforts from computer-based methods to gain insight into the relationship between structure and spectroscopic response. Methods for this purpose include physics-based and machine-learned energy functions, and methods that separate sampling conformational space and determining the data for spectral analysis such as map-based techniques.

Stretching vibrations are vibrational motions that occur along the bond line, changing the bond length or distance between two bonded atoms. They are further distinguished as symmetric or asymmetric. In symmetric stretching, the...

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
