Using FTIR spectroscopy, the authors observed the infrared absorption spectra of H2TPP and its J-aggregates. The IR spectra of H2TPP J-aggregates show significant changes compared with that of HETPP monomer. Intensity changes(e.g., strong enhancement of the in-plane vibronic mode and weakening of the out-of-plane vibronic mode of phenyl and porphyrin skeletal) were interpreted on the basis of stacking effects. Observation of the same type of bands collapse into single band was explained by the increase in the symmetry of H2TPP molecules. And the new bands at 1635 and 3407 cm^-1 indicate the aggregates containing a large amount of bound water.展开更多
