Doubly vibrationally enhanced (DOVE) four-wave mixing spectroscopy, an optical analogue to 2D NMR, involves two infrared transitions and a Raman transition. The magnitude of the DOVE second hyperpolarizability γ (or third-order susceptibility χ(3)) can be theoretically estimated if the values ...

By analysing the properties of the electron density in the structurally simple perhalogenated ethanes, X3C–CY3 (X, Y = F, Cl), a previously overlooked non-covalent attraction between halogens attached to opposite carbon atoms is found. Quantum chemical calculations extrapolated towards the ...
