Density functional cal-culations of the Raman spectra predict the splitting of the υ1 band into υ1-1 and υ1-2 compo-nents. The absence of splitting in Raman experimental spectra is ascribed to the competition between the two symmetric C=C stretching vibrations of the backbone chain. The υ1 band is very sensitive to the excitation wavelength: resonance excitation stimulates the higher-frequency υ1-2 mode, and off-resonance excitation corresponds to the lower-frequency υ1-1 mode. Analyses of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between C=O and O-H in the AXT/DMSO system reveal that the C4=O1...H1-O3 and C4'=O2...H2-O4 bonds are strengthened and weakened, respectively, in the electronically excited state compared with those in the ground state. This result reveals significant variations of the AXT molecular structure in different electronic states.展开更多

The UV-Vis absorption and resonance light scattering spectra of HsTPyP^6+ monomers and aggregates were also measured. The observed Raman bands of monomeric and aggregated HsTPyP^6+ were assigned on the basis of the observed deuteration shifts and by comparing with the Raman spectra of analogous porphyrin diacids. Aggregation causes moderate downshifts (2-6 cm^-1) for high-frequency modes involving the in-plane CC/CN stretches of the porphyrin core and a dramatic upshift (12 cm^-1) for the out-of-plane saddling mode of the porphyrin ring. The structural changes induced by aggregation and the possible hydrogen bonding interaction between the HsTPyP^6+ molecules in the aggregate are discussed based on the spectral observations.展开更多

To facilitate the formation of a compact vancomycin adsorbates layer with a uniform surface orientation, vancomycin molecules were attached onto a preformed alkanethiol self-assembled monolayer. By optimizing the conditions for the binding between Lys-Lys-Gly-D-Ala-D-Ala and vancomycin on the assembled chip, the detecting limit of Lys-Lys-Gly-D-Ala-D-Ala was greatly improved (reaching 0.5 ×10^- 6 mol/L or 7.5 × 10^-12 mol). The equilibrium constant of the association of Lys-Lys-Gly-D-Ala-D-Ala with vancomycin was also obtained (KAds=5.0×10^4 L/tool).展开更多

A single-ion anisotropy property ζ is considered for the spin-1. The intensities dependence of MQ NMR coherences on their orders(zeroth and second orders) for two pairs of spins(1,1/2) and(1/2,1/2) of the favorite tripartite system are obtained. It is also investigated dynamics of the pairwise quantum entanglement for the bipartite(sub)systems(1,1/2) and(1/2,1/2)permanently coupled by, respectively, coupling constants J_1 and J_2, by means of concurrence and fidelity. Then, some straightforward comparisons are done between these quantities and the intensities of MQ NMR coherences and ultimately some interesting results are reported. We also show that the time evolution of MQ coherences based on the reduced density matrix of the pair spins(1,1/2) is closely connected with the dynamics of the pairwise entanglement. Finally, we prove that one can introduce MQ coherence of the zeroth order corresponds to the pair spins(1,1/2) as an entanglement witness at some special time intervals.展开更多
