  6. Concept of normal modes in a molecule • There are 3N possible movements in a molecule made of N atoms, each of which moving in one of three directions, x, y and z. • There are three transitional movements: all atoms in the molecule moving in x, y or z direction at the same time. • There are three rotational movements around x, y or z-axis • Linear molecules are exceptions because two axes that are perpendicular to the molecular axis are identical. • The rest of movements are vibrational movements • For linear molecules, 3N – 5 movements • For non-linear molecules, 3N – 6 movements • All vibrational movements of the sample can be described as linear combinations of vibrational normal modes.

Bending NH3 n1 = 3505.7 cm-1 n4 = 1689.7 cm-1 n3 = 3573.1 cm-1 n2 = 1022 cm-1 SF6 n5 = 643.35 cm-1 n2 = 615.02 cm-1 n6 = 348.08 cm-1 n3 = 947.98 cm-1 n4 = 523.56 cm-1 n1 = 774.55 cm-1

  8. Vibrational Spectroscopy For a diatomic molecule (A-B), the bond between the two atoms can be approximated by a spring that restores the distance between A and B to its equilibrium value. The bond can be assigned a force constant, k (in Nm-1; the stronger the bond, the larger k) and the relationship between the frequency of the vibration, , is given by the relationship: DAB or, more typically where , c is the speed of light,  is the frequency in “wave numbers” (cm-1) and  is the reduced mass (in amu) of A and B given by the equation: 0 rAB re re = equilibrium distance between A and B DAB = energy required to dissociate into A and B atoms

  9. Vibrational Spectroscopy can be rearranged to solve for k (in N/m): For a vibration to be active (observable) in an infrared (IR) spectrum, the vibration must change the dipole moment of the molecule. (the vibrations for Cl2, Br2, and N2 will not be observed in an IR experiment) For a vibration to be active in a Raman spectrum, the vibration must change the polarizability of the molecule.

  10. Classical Picture of Raman Induced Polarization Polarizability Stokes Raman Anti-Stokes Raman

  11. Mutually exclusive principle

  12. Raman Scattering Selection rule: Dv = ±1 Overtones: Dv = ±2, ±3, … Must also have a change in polarizability Classical Description does not suggest any difference between Stokes and Anti-Stokes intensities www.andor.com

  13. Are you getting the concept? Calculate the ratio of Anti-Stokes to Stokes scattering intensity when T = 300 K and the vibrational frequency is 1440 cm-1. h = 6.63 x 10-34 Js k = 1.38 x 10-23 J/K ~ 0.5

  15. Intensity of Normal Raman Peaks The intensity or power of a normal Raman peak depends in a complex way upon • the polarizability of the molecule, • the intensity of the source, and • the concentration of the active group. • The power of Raman emission increases with the fourth power of the frequency of the source; - photodecomposition is a problem. • Raman intensities are usually directly proportional to the concentration of the active species.

  16. Raman Depolarization Ratios Polarization is a property of a beam of radiation and describes the plane in which the radiation vibrates. Raman spectra are excited by plane-polarized radiation. The scattered radiation is found to be polarized to various degrees depending upon the type of vibration responsible for the scattering.

  17. Raman Depolarization Ratios The depolarization ratio p is defined as Experimentally, the depolarization ratio may be obtained by inserting a polarizer between the sample and the monochromator. The depolarization ratio is dependent upon the symmetry of the vibrations responsible for scattering.

  18. Raman Depolarization Ratios Polarized band: p = < 0.76 for totally symmetric modes (A1g) Depolarized band: p = 0.76 for B1g and B2g nonsymmetrical vibrational modes Anomalously polarized band: p = > 0.76 for A2g vibrational modes

  35. CASR Laser excitation – laser radiation power

  36. CASR Laser excitation – laser radiation power • Keep in mind: the usage of high numerical objective lenses causes a very small spot size of the laser which results in a high power density • To avoid sample burning radiation power has to be adapted INDIVIDUALY to the sample

  37. CASR Collecting Optics Collection solid angle Large for high N.A. lens Small for low N.A. lens Working distance High N.A. lens Low N.A. lens Sampling volume Small for high N.A. lens Large for low N.A. lens Working distance θ θ Laser spot size Small for high N.A. lens Large for low N.A. lens NA = n · sin (Q) n: refraction index Q: aperture angle

  38. CASR Collecting Optics – Overview on common objectives

  39. CASR Collecting Optics – what objective should be used? A distinction between opaque and transparent samples has to be made • For opaque samples, high N.A. lens works better because there is almost no penetration of the laser into the sample. High N.A. lens enables • High laser power density (mW/m3)  increases sensitivity • Wide collection solid angle  increases sensitivity 100 % Example for an opaque sample: Silicon wafer Silicon x100 – NA = 0.9 – 31.350 C/s x50 – NA = 0.75 - 21.995 C/s x10 – NA = 0.25 - 1.462 C/s 70 % 5 %

A distinction between opaque and transparent samples has to be made • For transparent samples, low N.A. lens works better because of penetration of the laser into the sample. Low N.A. lens enables • Large sampling volume  increases sensitivity

  42. CASR Spectral resolution and spectral coverage • Spectral resolution is a function of 1. dispersion, 2. widths of entrance slit and 3. pixel size of the CCD • Dispersion is the relation between refraction of light according to the wavelength of light • Dispersion is a function of the 1. focal length of spectrograph the 2. groove density of the grating and 3. the excitation wavelength • In general, long focal length and high groove density grating offer high spectral resolution.

  43. CASR Dispersion as a function of the focal length Short focal length CCD Detector Same grating Same excitation wavelength Long focal length CCD Detector

  44. CASR Dispersion as a function of the focal length vis-a vis wavelength Dispersion in cm-1 / pixel 1800 gr/mm Grating LabRAM (F = 300 mm) LabRAM HR (F = 800 mm)

  45. CASR Dispersion as a function of excitation wavelength Same focal length Same grating CCD Detector CCD Detector Short wavelength Long wavelength

  46. 473 nm –633 nm – 785 nm Same focal length Same grating Relative Raman shift of 3100 cm-1 corresponds to 81 nm Relative Raman shift of 3100 cm-1 corresponds to 154 nm Relative Raman shift of 3100 cm-1 corresponds to 252 nm CASR Spectral coverage - dependence from excitation wavelength Length of CCD Chip Length of CCD Chip Length of CCD Chip

  47. CASR Dispersion as a function of groove density CCD Detector CCD Detector Low density groove grating High density groove grating Same focal length Same excitation wavelength

  48. CASR Spectral resolution as a function slit width Slit Slit Slit One of parameters that determines the spectral resolution is the entrance slit width. The narrower the slit, the narrower the FWHM (full width at half maximum), and higher the spectral resolution. When recording a line whose natural width is smaller than the monochromator’s resolution, the measured width will reflect the spectrograph’s resolution.

  49. CASR Spectral resolution as a function of pixel size • Because a CCD detector is made of very small pixels, each pixel serves as an exit slit (pixel size = exit slit width) • For the same size CCDs, the CCD with a larger number of smaller pixels produces a larger number of spectral points closer to each other increasing the limiting spectral resolution and the sampling frequency • 26 m pixel vs. 52 m pixel (simulation) Detector Detector
