Protein Adsorption on Gold Nanoparticle and Protein Surfaces Probed by Second Harmonic Light Scattering
Second harmonic light scattering (SHLS) is a highly sensitive technique to probe
reactions at interfaces/surfaces because of symmetry breaking at the interface/surface
produces a large surface polarization which gives ...
Blue and Red Shifting H-Bonding in X−H···Y(X=C, O: Y = O, N, S) Complexes: A Gas Phase FTIR and ab initio Study
Regular H-bonding is essential for sustenance of many chemical and biochemical processes and has been investigated thoroughly since its discovery in the 1920’s. However, experimental finding of blue shifting of X-H stretching ...
