Polarization spectroscopy and photodissociation studies of nitroaromatic compounds in the gas phase

Creator:

Abbott, James E.

Abstract:

The central purpose of this dissertation was to explore and expand the use of an uniform electric field for orientation and for subsequent spectroscopic investigation of asymmetric polar molecules in the gas phase. The systems of study were nitrobenzene (NB) and the nitrotoluene (NT) isomers. We were able to quantitatively...
