In this work, surface-enhanced vibrational spectroscopy and normal vibrational spectroscopy as well as density functional theory (DFT) computational methods have been employed to investigate the nature of the chemical adsorption and orientation of the surface species generated from salicylic acid at silver surfaces. The structure of salicylic acid and its IR and Raman spectra are determined at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory. These results are used in the assignment of the vibrational spectra. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra obtained from silver island films thinly coated with salicylic acid confirm chemical adsorption on the Ag nanostructures. To probe the nature of this surface complex, the optimized geometries and IR and Raman spectra of two model salicylate-silver complexes (Ag1 and Ag2) were calculated at the B3LYP/Lanl2DZ level of theory. It was found that good agreement exists between experimentally observed SERS spectra and the simulated SERS spectra of a complex with the salicylate monoanion bound to a Ag+ ion through its carboxylate group (Ag1). The carboxylate silver salt of salicylic acid (essentially the Ag1 complex) was also prepared, and its IR and Raman spectra were recorded for comparison with the surface-enhanced vibrational spectra. These results, along with the application of surface selection rules, suggest that salicylic acid is deprotonated at silver surfaces, interacting through its carboxylate group alone, and is preferentially in a tilted head-on orientation.Key words: chemisorption, salicylic acid, silver, density functional theory, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, reflection-absorption IR spectroscopy, surface-enhanced IR absorption.

Within the framework of density functional theory, an ab initio calculation was carried out to study the crystal structure, phonon spectrum and elastic constants of a series of rare-earth germanates, including yttrium germanate R2Ge2O7 (R = Tb-Lu, Y) with tetragonal structure. The frequencies and types of fundamental vibrations as well as the intensities of the IR and Raman modes were determined. The degree of participation of ions in each mode was determined from the analysis of the displacement vectors obtained from the ab initio calculation. The calculations were performed for the first time. The corresponding experimental data for the entire series, with the exception of the IR and Raman spectra of yttrium germanate, are absent. The calculations made it possible to interpret and supplement available in the scientific articles results of measurements of the IR and Raman spectra of yttrium germanate Y2Ge2O7.
