Dr. Mark Berg is supported by a grant from The Experimental                  Physical Chemistry Program to investigate the molecular motions                 of solvent molecules in the vicinity of a solute in solution.                   Berg will use sophisticated laser techniques to study the                       rattling motion of solute molecules within their local solvent                  cages, and the cooperative rearrangements of the local solute-                  solvent structure.                                                                                                                                                 This research will explore the solvent motion around a                       solute molecule and the coupling of that motion to the                          electronic, vibrational and orientational states of the solute.                 Ultrafast laser technology will permit the direct time                          resolution of the fundamental motion in liquids.  Through a                     combination of nonlinear and coherent spectroscopic techniques                  it will be possible to discriminate between the effects of                      different types of solvent dynamics.  These techniques,                         specifically transient hole burning and Raman echoes, have well                 understood analogues in the solid state and gas phase, but have                 not previously been widely applied to the liquid state.  These                  experiments will lead to new measurements of solute                             reorientational dynamics, and the delocalization of vibrational                 motion in pure solvents.
