Journal Article
Frantsuzov, I., Ford, S. J., Radosavljevic-Evans, I., Horsewill, A. J., Trommsdorff, H. P., & Johnson, M. R. (2014). Measurement of proton tunneling in short hydrogen bonds in single crystals of 3,5 pyridinedicarboxylic acid using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Physical Review Letters, 113, https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.018301

In this letter, we present NMR spin-lattice and relaxometry data for proton transfer in one of the shortest known N-H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds in a single crystal of 3,5 pyridinedicarboxylic acid (35PDCA). It is widely believed that proton transfer by quan...

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 16(39), https://doi.org/10.1039/c4cp03272a

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) has been employed to investigate the quantum dynamics of water molecules permanently entrapped inside the cages of C60 fullerene molecules. This study of the supramolecular complex, H2O@C60, provides the unique oppo...

Physical Review Letters, 113(123001), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.123001

We report an inelastic neutron scattering (INS) study of H2 molecule encapsulated inside the fullerene C60 which confirms the recently predicted selection rule, the first to be established for the INS spectroscopy of aperiodic, discrete molecular com...
