The geometries, energetics, and vibrational spectra are calculated for the two complexes at the SCF and correlated MP2 levels using the 6‐31G∗∗ basis set, augmented by a second set of d functions on Cl. While correlation represents an important factor in the binding of H3 N⋅⋅HCl, it contributes little to the stronger Li bond. Unlike the HCl stretch νs which decreases substantially in frequency and is greatly intensified in H3 N⋅⋅HCl, the frequency of the LiCl stretch undergoes an increase and little change is noted in its intensity, conforming to prior spectral measurements. The intensities of the …

Optimized Spectroscopic Signal Estimates Using Integration And Matched Filters, Stephen E. Bialkowski
Stephen E. Bialkowski
This paper examines theories of signal processing as applied to peak magnitude estimation in absorption and emission spectroscopy. Signals obtained from Fourier transform, fixed wavelength, and scanning dispersive instruments are modeled in terms of the time required to obtain a spectrum. The differences between these techniques and the signal processing procedures that should be used for each technique are characterized for a Lorentzian spectral feature. Including the time required to scan over a range of optical frequencies results in optimal signal processing procedures that are different from those previously supposed. In particular, it is found that the optimal matched filter …
