High resolution photoelectron spectra are reported for styrene and stilbene with an emphasis on identifying the low frequency modes which are important in the phenyl–vinyl torsional motion. In the styrene cation three low frequency out-of-plane vibrations are measured, ν42, ν41 and ν40 as well as a number of higher frequency in plane modes. Generally the low frequency modes do not appear with significant intensity but by pumping the appropriate modes in the S1 intermediate state the intensity for these modes in the threshold ionization spectrum is quite good. In the stilbene cation the analogous phenyl–vinyl torsion, ν37, is also measured as well as the related mode ν36. The ethylene torsional mode in stilbene is not observed. In both molecules the observed frequencies are used to relate the electronic structure of the cation to the S1 and S0 states of the molecule.

Fourier transform infrared spectra (3800 to 450 cm−1) and laser Raman spectra (4000 to 0 cm−1) of crystalline phenylsilanetriol and phenylsilanetriol-d3, and liquid state phenylsilanetriol and phenylsilanetriol-d3 are first reported. Complete band assignments are attempted. All vibrational modes of the SiOH group except for the SiC torsional mode, including the SiOH in-plane and out-of-plane bending modes, are observed. In addition to the phenylsilanetriols, infrared and laser Raman spectra of crystalline diphenylsilanediol and triphenylsilanol are also studied to aid the band assignments.

AbstractThe hallmark of superconductivity is the rigidity of the quantum-mechanical phase of electrons, responsible for superfluid behavior and Meissner effect. The strength of the phase stiffness is set by the Josephson coupling, which is strongly anisotropic in layered cuprates. So far, THz light pulses have been used to achieve non-linear control of the out-of-plane Josephson plasma mode, whose frequency lies in the THz range. However, the high-energy in-plane plasma mode has been considered insensitive to THz pumping. Here, we show that THz driving of both low-frequency and high-frequency plasma waves is possible via a general two-plasmon excitation mechanism. The anisotropy of the Josephson couplings leads to markedly different thermal effects for the out-of-plane and in-plane response, linking in both cases the emergence of non-linear photonics across Tc to the superfluid stiffness. Our results show that THz light pulses represent a preferential knob to selectively drive phase excitations in unconventional superconductors.

The Stability

The parametric excitation of an axially moving plate is examined in an application where a partial foundation moves in the plane of the plate and in a direction orthogonal to the plate’s transport. The stability of the plate’s out-of-plane vibration is of interest in a magnetic tape data storage application where the read/write head is substantially narrower than the tape’s width and is repositioned during track-following maneuvers. In this case, the model’s equation of motion has time-dependent coefficients, and vibration is excited both parametrically and by direct forcing. The parametric instability of out-of-plane vibration is analyzed by using the Floquet theory for finite values of the foundation’s range of motion. For a relatively soft foundation, vibration is excited preferentially at the primary resonance of the plate’s fundamental torsional mode. As the foundation’s stiffness increases, multiple primary and combination resonances occur, and they dominate the plate’s stability; small islands, however, do exist within unstable zones of the frequency-amplitude parameter space for which vibration is marginally stable. The plate’s and foundation’s geometry, the foundation’s stiffness, and the excitation’s amplitude and frequency can be selected in order to reduce undesirable vibration that occurs along the plate’s free edge.

ABSTRACTThe longitudinal (LO) and transverse (TO) A1 vibrational modes have been measured between 30-1200 cm−1 as a function of temperature (30–1240 K) for CsTiOAsO4 (CTA). The frequencies for all corresponding Raman components shifted to lower frequencies on increasing the temperature, however, there is no typical soft-mode like behavior observed in the measured frequency range. The relative intensities of the low frequency bands increase dramatically with increasing temperature due to high mobility of Cs+ ion. A higher symmetry structure taking place above 940K has been confirmed by changes in the phonon spectra.

The Continuum

The low-frequency vibrational and low-temperature thermal properties of amorphous solids are markedly different from those of crystalline solids. This situation is counterintuitive because all solid materials are expected to behave as a homogeneous elastic body in the continuum limit, in which vibrational modes are phonons that follow the Debye law. A number of phenomenological explanations for this situation have been proposed, which assume elastic heterogeneities, soft localized vibrations, and so on. Microscopic mean-field theories have recently been developed to predict the universal non-Debye scaling law. Considering these theoretical arguments, it is absolutely necessary to directly observe the nature of the low-frequency vibrations of amorphous solids and determine the laws that such vibrations obey. Herein, we perform an extremely large-scale vibrational mode analysis of a model amorphous solid. We find that the scaling law predicted by the mean-field theory is violated at low frequency, and in the continuum limit, the vibrational modes converge to a mixture of phonon modes that follow the Debye law and soft localized modes that follow another universal non-Debye scaling law.
