Abstract

The infrared and Raman spectra of solids and thin solid films of 6-nitrochrysene, its electronic spectra, and resonance Raman scattering (RRS) obtained with UV-laser excitation at 325 nm are reported. The vibrational assignment is supported by ab initio computations at the B3LYP/6-311G(d, p) level of theory. The molecular organization in nanometric films evaporated onto smooth metal surfaces of silver and copper was probed using reflection–absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS). The results of the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) obtained from nanometric films evaporated onto silver island films are also discussed. It was found that the molecule efficiently interacts with silver island film surfaces, and that the interaction leads to extensive photochemical reaction at the metal surface under laser illumination.
