Localization to the ground state of axial motion is demonstrated for a single, trapped atom strongly coupled to the field of a high finesse optical resonator. The axial atomic motion is cooled by way of coherent Raman transitions on the red vibrational sideband. An efficient state detection scheme enabled by strong coupling in cavity QED is used to record the Raman spectrum, from which the stat...

The hydrogen abstraction reaction of OH radical with CH3CH2OCF2CHF2 (HFE-374pc2) is investigated theoretically by semi-classical transition state theory. The stationary points on the potential energy surface of the reaction are located by using KMLYP density functional method along with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Vibrational anharmonicity coefficients, ...

We report the first measurement of the vibrationaland rotational-state distributions in the NCO fragment resulting from photolysis of HNCO. Recent studies have drawn conclusions about the photochemistry of HNCO and the vibrational distribution in the NCO fragment from observations of the kinetic energy distribution of the H atom produced in this photolysis; however, there has been no direct obs...

A theoretical study of the kinetic and mechanism of intramoleccha cychcation of (1)-undeca-7,8-dien-2-yne was performed using MT methods at B3LYP and B3PW91 levels of theory using 6-311g, 6-311C.6-31 IGs*, 6-31I+G, 6-31 I4-SG and 6-3114H-Gs* basis seo. Equilibrium molecular geometries andharmonic vibrational frequencies of the reaccint, transition state and product wens calculated. Theconsidere...

The optimized molecular structures, vibrational frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of the two planar O-cis and O-trans rotomers of 2,4-, 2,5and 2,6-difluorobenzaldehyde have been calculated using ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (B3LYP) methods with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set level. The calculations were adapted to the CS symmetries of all the molecu...

We investigate in detail the effects of a QND vibrational number measurement made on single ions in a recently proposed measurement scheme for the vibrational state of a register of ions in a linear rf trap [C. D'Helon and G. The performance of a measurement shows some interesting patterns which are closely related to searching.

The present theoretical study is concerned with the vibrational trapping or bond hardening, which is a well-known phenomenon predicted by a dressed state representation of small molecules like and in an intense laser field. This phenomenon is associated with a condition where the energy of the light induced, vibrational level coincides with one of the vibrational levels on the field-free potent...

Solitons arise as static solutions of finite energy to the equations of motion of non linear field theories. A given solution in general depends upon a set of parameters or moduli, and is a point in the manifold of solutions of equal energy, or moduli space. In many cases this manifold is simply a coset space G/H where G is the group of symmetries of the action and H ⊂ G is the symmetry of the ...

A novel chiral open-framework fluoroaluminophosphate [C4N3H16][Al6P3O12F6(OH)6] was hydrothermally synthesized using diethylenetriamine as a structure-directing agent. The significant enantiomeric excess of the bulk product was confirmed by the solid state vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectrum.
