  2. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. one with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such a resonance structure is called a Clar structure. In other words, a ...

  3. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  4. Acoustic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance...

    Acoustic resonance spectroscopy (ARS) is a method of spectroscopy in the acoustic region, primarily the sonic and ultrasonic regions. ARS is typically much more rapid than HPLC and NIR. It is non destructive and requires no sample preparation as the sampling waveguide can simply be pushed into a sample powder/liquid or in contact with a solid ...

  5. Resonance Raman spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_Raman_spectroscopy

    Resonance hyper-Raman spectroscopy: Excitation of the sample occurs by two-photon absorption, rather than by absorption of a single photon. This arrangement allows for excitation of modes that are forbidden in ordinary resonance Raman spectroscopy, with intensity enhancement due to resonance, and also simplifies collection of scattered light.

  6. Natural resonance theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_Resonance_Theory

    Below is an example of how NRT may generate a list of resonance structures. (1) Given an input wavefunction, NRT creates a list of reference Lewis structures. The LEWIS option tests each structure and rejects those that do not conform to the Lewis bonding theory (i.e., those that do not fulfill the octet rule , pose unreasonable formal charges ...

  7. Surface plasmon resonance microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plasmon_resonance...

    As a consequence, the reflectivity value at the resonance angle is dumped. [46] The propagation constant of the polaritons can be modified by varying the dielectric material. This modification causes resonance angle shifting as in the example shown in Figure 10, from θ 1 to θ 2 due to the change on the surface plasmon propagation constant.

  8. Mössbauer effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mössbauer_effect

    Mössbauer observed resonance in nuclei of solid iridium, which raised the question of why gamma-ray resonance was possible in solids, but not in gases. Mössbauer proposed that, for the case of atoms bound into a solid, under certain circumstances a fraction of the nuclear events could occur essentially without recoil.

  9. Fermi resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermi_resonance

    A Fermi resonance is the shifting of the energies and intensities of absorption bands in an infrared or Raman spectrum. It is a consequence of quantum-mechanical wavefunction mixing. [ 1 ] The phenomenon was first explained by the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi .
