The yttrium monosulfide molecule (YS) has been investigated using the techniques of molecular beam fluorescence spectroscopy and density functional theory. Fluorescence spectra in the region of the electronic orgin of the B2∑+ ← X2∑+ system (ν00 = 14 826.07 cm−1) were recorded using a ring dye laser, the experimental resolution being 120 MHz. The B2Σ+ ← X2Σ+ (0,0) band, and a cold band of a hitherto unreported 4Π±1/2 ← X2Σ+ system (νυ′0 = 14 926.02 cm−1) have been rotationally analysed. (The ± 1/2 notation implies that the state has either 4Π1/2 or 4Π−1/2 symmetry.) Improved molecular rotational constants were obtained for the ν = 0 levels of the X2Σ+ and B2Σ+ states (r0(X) = 2.27191(17) Å, r0(B) = 2.32202(19) Å, γ0(B) = −0.15150(14) cm−1 (2σ error bounds)). The magnetic hyperfine and spin rotation parameters determined for the X2Σ+ state were found to be in good agreement with previous work. An accurate bond length has been derived for the upper vibrational level of the 14 926.0 cm−1 band (rυ′ = 2.49510(16) Å). The ν = 1 level of the B2Σ+ state is found to be strongly perturbed by another vibrational level of the 4Π±1/2 state. The spin-forbidden 4Π±1/2 ← X2Σ+ transition gains intensity via spin-orbit mixing between the 4Π state and the B2Σ+ state. Radiative lifetimes of the observed bands were measured by digitizing the fluorescence decay traces obtained upon excitation with a pulsed dye laser. The results of the density functional treatment provide broad confirmation of the experimental measurements. A molecular orbital description of the bonding in the YS molecule is presented.

The paper presents the synthesis and characterization of Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cd(II), Zn(II) and Hg(II) complexes with N1-[4-(4-bromo-phenylsulfonyl)-benzoyl]-N4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-thiosemicarbazide. The new compounds were characterized by IR, EPR, electronic spectroscopy, magnetic moments, thermo-gravimetric analysis and elemental analysis.

This chapter provides a broad overview of the spectroscopic principles required in order to perform quantitative spectroscopy of atmospheres. It couples the details of atmospheric spectroscopy with the radiative transfer processes and also with the assessment of rotational, vibrational, and electronic spectroscopic measurements of atmospheres. The principles apply from line-resolved measurements (chiefly microwave through infrared) through ultraviolet and visible measurements employing absorption cross sections developed from individual transitions. The chapter introduces Einstein coefficients before in turn discussing rotational spectroscopy, vibrational spectroscopy, nuclear spin, and electronic spectroscopy.

AbstractPhotochemical reaction centers are the engines that drive photosynthesis. The reaction center from heliobacteria (HbRC) has been proposed to most closely resemble the common ancestor of photosynthetic reaction centers, motivating a detailed understanding of its structure-function relationship. The recent elucidation of the HbRC crystal structure motivates advanced spectroscopic studies of its excitonic structure and charge separation mechanism. We perform multispectral two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy of the HbRC and corresponding numerical simulations, resolving the electronic structure and testing and refining recent excitonic models. Through extensive examination of the kinetic data by lifetime density analysis and global target analysis, we reveal that charge separation proceeds via a single pathway in which the distinct A0 chlorophyll a pigment is the primary electron acceptor. In addition, we find strong delocalization of the charge separation intermediate. Our findings have general implications for the understanding of photosynthetic charge separation mechanisms, and how they might be tuned to achieve different functional goals.

A number of electrooptical techniques are described that discriminate against background fluorescence in biologic staining, whether from sample background or unbound excess stain. These techniques are based on the fluorescent decay lifetime difference between bound stain and the sample background or between the bound stain its free form. The fluorescence decay lifetimes may be measured either directly or in a combination gated photometry scheme to substantially enhance the sample background contrast. An alternative procedure uses the photochemical bleaching of fluorescent dyes under intense exposure to time discriminate with higher selectivity, sensitivity and in a more convenient fashion between diverse fluorescent molecules.
