Adsorption of SF6 on zinc oxide and on silicalite-1 was investigated by a combination of IR spectroscopy with the calculations of spectra by means of a modernized model, developed previously for liquids. Comparison of the experimental spectra and the results of modeling shows that the complex band shapes in spectra of adsorbed molecules with extremely high absorbance are due to the strong resonance dipole-dipole interaction (RDDI) rather that the surface heterogeneity or the presence of specific surface sites. Perfect agreement between calculated and observed spectra was found for ZnO, while some dissimilarity in band intensities for silicalite-1 was attributed to complicated geometry of molecular arrangement in the channels.

The molecular energy transfer is crucial for many different physicochemical processes. The efficiency of traditional resonance energy transfer relies on dipole-dipole distance between molecules and becomes negligible when the distance is larger than ∼10 nm, which is difficult to overcome. Cavity polariton, formed when placing molecules inside the cavity, is a promising way to surmount the distance limit.

The effects of alkali-metal ions (Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) on the vibrational dynamics of the DNA ion-hydration shell were studied through classical molecular dynamics simulations. As a result, the vibrational spectra of the DNA-water-salt systems were calculated within the framework of two approaches, using dipole-dipole and velocity-velocity autocorrelation functions. We dissect the effect of the individual compartments of the DNA double helix (minor groove, major groove, and phosphate groups) on the behavior of the systems.

Article Synopsis
  • - Dysprosium-doped phosphate glasses, specifically with varying amounts of Dy ions, were studied to understand how these ions influence the glasses' properties, focusing on aspects like physical, structural, thermal, and optical characteristics.
  • - Advanced characterization techniques, including Raman spectroscopy and optical absorption, were employed to reveal new insights into how Dy influences the glass network and properties relative to other lanthanides.
  • - The findings indicate that lower concentrations of Dy enhance luminescent properties while reducing emission decay times through cross-relaxation channels, whereas higher concentrations lead to emission quenching due to interactions between Dy ions at short distances.
