C60-C8H8 and C70-C8H8 are prototypes of rotor-stator cocrystals. We present infrared and Raman spectra of these materials and show how the rotor-stator nature is reflected in their vibrational properties. We measured the vibrational spectra of the polymer phases poly(C60C8H8) and poly(C70C8H8) resulting from a solid state reaction occurring on heating. Based on the spectra we propose a connection pattern for the fullerene in poly(C60C8H8), where the symmetry of the C60 is D2h. On illuminating the C60-C8H8 cocrystal with green or blue light a photochemical reaction was observed leading to a similar product to that of the thermal polymerization.

We present an application of the Lorentz model in which fits to vibrational spectra or a Kramers Kronig analysis are employed along with several useful formalisms to quantify microscopic charge in unoriented (powdered) materials. The conditions under which these techniques can be employed are discussed, and we analyze the vibrational response of a layered transition metal dichalcogenide and its nanoscale analog to illustrate the utility of this approach.
With the examples of the C $K$-edge in graphite and the B $K$-edge in hexagonal BN, we demonstrate the impact of vibrational coupling and lattice distortions on the X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) in 2D layered materials. Theoretical XAN ES spectra are obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation of many-body perturbation theory, including excitonic effects through the correlated motion of core-hole and excited electron. We show that accounting for zero-point motion is important for the interpretation and understanding of the measured X-ray absorption fine structure in both materials, in particular for describing the $sigma^*$-peak structure.
Fe2Al5 contains a Fe-Al matrix through which are threaded disordered one-dimensional chains of overlapping Al sites. We report magnetic, nuclear-magnetic-resonance (NMR), and specific-heat measurements addressing its magnetic and vibrational properti es. The Curie-type susceptibility is found to be due to dilute moments, likely due to wrong-site Fe atoms. 27Al NMR shift and spin-lattice relaxation measurements confirm these to be indirectly coupled through a Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yoshida-type interaction. Specific-heat results indicate a large density of low-energy vibrational modes. These excitations generate a linear-T contribution to the specific heat, which however freezes out below about 10 K. These results are attributed to the presence of anharmonic vibrational modes associated with the disordered structural chains.
We present a method for calculation of Raman modes of the quantum solid phase I solid hydrogen and deuterium. We use the mean-field assumption that the quantised excitations are localized on one molecule. This is done by explicit solution of the time -dependent Schroedinger equation in an angle-dependent potential, and direct calculation of the polarisation. We show that in the free-rotor limit, the H$_2$ and D$_2$ frequencies differ by a factor of 2, which evolves toward $sqrt{2}$ as the modes acquire librational character due to stronger interactions. The ratio overshoots $sqrt{2}$ if anharmonic terms weaken the harmonic potential. We also use density functional theory and molecular dynamics to calculate the E$_{2_g}$ optical phonon frequency and the Raman linewidths. The molecular dynamics shows that the molecules are not free rotors except at very low pressure and high temperature, and become like oscillators as phase II is approached. We fit the interaction strengths to experimental frequencies, but good agreement for intensities requires us to also include strong preferred-orientation and stimulated Raman effects between S$_0$(1) and S$_0$(0) contributions. The experimental Raman spectrum for phase II cannot be reproduced, showing that the mean-field assumption is invalid in that case.
Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have the remarkable ability to classify, recognize, and characterize complex patterns and trends in large data sets. Here, we adopt a subclass of machine learning methods viz., deep learnings and develop a general-purpose AI tool - dPOLY for analyzing molecular dynamics trajectory and predicting phases and phase transitions in polymers. An unsupervised deep neural network is used within this framework to map a molecular dynamics trajectory undergoing thermophysical treatment such as cooling, heating, drying, or compression to a lower dimension. A supervised deep neural network is subsequently developed based on the lower dimensional data to characterize the phases and phase transition. As a proof of concept, we employ this framework to study coil to globule transition of a model polymer system. We conduct coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to collect molecular dynamics trajectories of a single polymer chain over a wide range of temperatures and use dPOLY framework to predict polymer phases. The dPOLY framework accurately predicts the critical temperatures for the coil to globule transition for a wide range of polymer sizes. This method is generic and can be extended to capture various other phase transitions and dynamical crossovers in polymers and other soft materials.
