Helium nanodroplet isolation ro-vibrational spectroscopy: methods and recent results

Chemical Physics 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

In this article, recent developments in HElium NanoDroplet Isolation (HENDI) spectroscopy are reviewed, with an emphasis on the infrared region of the spectrum. Topics discussed include experimental details, comparison of radiation sources, symmetry issues of the helium solvation structure, sources of line broadening, changes in spectroscopic constants upon solvation, and applications including formation of novel chemical structures.
