Despite the effort deployed, the decryption of the vibrational spectra of amino acids in the
high wavenumber region (2600–3600 cm− 1) remains a challenge for both spectroscopists …

The chirality of nanostructured systems has gained growing attention in catalysis,
biotechnology, and optoelectronics owing to their exotic enantio-/spin-selective interactions …

Batch experiments were conducted to evaluate the sorption–desorption behaviour of 14 C-
labelled carboxylic acids (citric and oxalic) and amino acids (glutamic, alanine …

In this work, we report the synthesis of copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs), employing the
chemical reduction method in an aqueous medium. We used copper sulfate pentahydrate …

The development of efficient photodetectors (PDs) for ultraviolet (UV) light is of great
importance for many applications. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for boosting …

Chiral nature of an enantiomer can be characterized by circular dichroism (CD)
spectroscopy, but such a technique usually suffers from weak signal even with a …

The zwitterionic forms of the two simplest α-amino acids, glycine and l-alanine, in aqueous
solution and the solid state have been modeled by DFT calculations. Calculations of the …

Infrared spectra of tetrazole (CN4H2) isolated in an argon matrix (T= 10 K) and in the solid
state (at room temperature) were investigated. In the crystalline phase, tetrazole exists in its …

The IR spectra (4000–400cm− 1) of neat and isotopically substituted (ND/OD≤ 10% D and≅
30% D) polycrystalline l-serine (α-amino-β-hydroxypropionic acid; HO–CH2–CH (NH3)+ …

The near-and mid-IR spectra of α-alanine isolated in low-temperature Ar, Kr, and N2
matrixes were measured. Production of the short-lived conformer VI at the expense of the …
