Abstract

Optical Kerr effect spectroscopy has been used to study mixtures of CS2 with 2-methylhexane and with n-hexane, in each case at a temperature at which the two components and all of their mixtures at different volume fractions have the same viscosity. Obtaining data in isoviscous mixtures allows us to make a direct comparison of orientational and intermolecular dynamics as a function of the CS2 volume fraction, as well as to gain insight into the structure of the mixtures. In both cases the inhomogeneity in the intermolecular spectrum is found to stay roughly constant and the intermolecular potential to soften as the CS2 volume fraction is decreased.
