Photoelectron spectra of adamantane derivatives analysed by sophisticated density functional theory calculations unravel the effects of functional groups and modification of the hydrocarbon cage on their geometric, vibrational and electronic structure.
Thanks to combined ab initio calculations and experimental photoelectron studies of CF and SiF fluorinated radicals in the gas-phase, the thermochemical network of Active Thermochemical Tables was updated for these species and their cations.
We present threshold photoelectron spectra of several reactive selenium-containing intermediates generated by pyrolysis of dimethyldiselenide, (CH3)2Se2.
We report vibrationally resolved threshold photoelectron spectra of several sulfur-containing reactive intermediates, including S2H, recently observed in the horsehead nebula. Background image credit: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team (AURA/STScI).
In this work, polycarboranosiloxanes with well-defined structures and a varying content of the carborane moiety (2–15 wt%) were obtained. Data of rheological studies indicate that phase separation occurs in such hybrid carboranosiloxane systems.
