Phys., 83, 4387 (1985)Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, Oklahoma State UniversityThe guest molecules in a clathrate hydrate are isolated in well-defined cages. Such systems were difficult to study spectroscopically prior to the demonstration that crystaline films of the clathrate hydrates of polar molecules can be readily deposited from the vapor phase1,2phase^{1,2}. Recently, as part of a study of the mechanism of the growth of ice-like crystals at low temperatures, infrared spectra of several caged molecules have been measured. The spectra are marked by evidence of dynamical coupling between neighbour guest molecules, Evans holes (i.e., Fano antiresonances) caused by the interaction of guest and host vibrational states, and sharp variations with temperature that reflect the orientational dynamics of the engaged molecules

Phys. 95 1378 (1991).Author Institution: Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK 74078The addition of HCl to the surface of crystalline ice clusters at cryogenic temperatures produces spectroscopic changes which can be related to the formation of the hydronium ion and the HCl acting as a molecular adsorbate. The hydronium ion is identified from its IR active modes below 2200cm12200cm^{-1}. Evidence for the HCl acting as a molecular adsorbate is its effect on the dangling-hydrogen (d-H) mode and the appearance of a 2500cm12500cm^{-1} band. Analogous spectra for with the HBrH2OHBr-H_{2}O and the DClD2ODCl-D_{2}O systems1systems^{1} show two bands relative to the one band in the 2500cm12500cm^{-1} region due to the HClH2OHCl-H_{2}O interaction. The single band in the HCl system is attributed to the near overlap of the bands due to the molecular and ionic interaction of the HCl and H2OH_{2}O. Reference to matrix isolation2,3isolation^{2,3} and computational work4work^{4} will show the plausibility of the presence of the molecular complex. Shifting of the d-H band is a common effect for molecularly adsorbed species on the surface of ice.5ice.^{5} The shifting of the d-H to a position yet unobserved for common adsorbates gives strong evidence of the HCl acting as a molecular adsorbate

    1^{1}G. Pollard, N. Smyrl, and J. P. Devlin, J. Phys. Chem. 76, 1826 (1972).Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, Oklahoma State UniversityIt has been shown that the glass phase of many simple salts (nitrates, chlorates, etc.) can be formed by condensing the molten salt vapors at low temperatures.1temperatures.^{1} Admission of proportionate quantities of water vapor during the 12K12^{\circ} K deposition of MNO3MNO_{3} vapors permits formation of glassy solutions which crystallize at \sim 170K170^{\circ} K, forming a crystalline hydrate. The warming of the crystal hydrate in vacuo results in a loss of water at \approx 230K230^{\circ} K with the formation of the anhydrous glass, which eventually crystallizes to the stable anhydrous salt at \approx 240K240^{\circ} K. Spectra that are representative of the phases involved, and which provide evidence for the unusual crystal-to-glass transformation will be discussed

Phys. 51, 302 (1969).""Author Institution: Chemistry Department, Oklahoma State University; Department of Chemistry, Oregon State UniversityOriented films of the trigonal alkali metal nitrates, which behave effectively as single crystals, can be grown in optical contact with silicon and Irtran 6 atr elements from the corresponding pure melts. Contrary to earlier thoughts,1thoughts,^{1} spectra from such crystals are not strongly influenced by crystal distortion at the interface. Rather the unusual experimental curves, typified by a nearly complete lack of TE and TM band overlap for the ν1\nu_{1} mode of NaNO3NaNO_{3} (II), have been found to be predictable using optical parameters generated from a damped oscillator model. Substitution of the empirically calibrated optical constants into Fresnel’s equations for the case in point (unique crystal axis perpendicular to the sample-element interface) yields nearly quantitative agreement with the experimental curves
