Dr. George Ewing is supported by a grant from The                            Experimental Physical Chemistry Program to study the flow of                    vibrational energy in liquids and on surfaces.  This basic                      research program will contribute substantially to our                           understanding of vibrational energy storage in molecules                        contained in solution and adsorbed on surfaces.                                                                                                                    Dr. Ewing has demonstrated that energy can be stored in high                 vibrational levels of molecules dissolved in cryogenic liquids.                 Most recently he has also shown that molecules which have been                  pumped into these high levels can undergo chemical reactions.                   He will continue to explore the properties of these high energy                 liquid systems which may serve as laser media and which also                    exhibit vibrational to electronic energy transfer.                                                                                                                 In a second quite distinct research effort, Dr. Ewing is                     studying the fate of vibrational energy in molecules adsorbed                   on alkali halide surfaces.  Three properties are being                          investigated: 1) the vibrational relaxation rate of adsorbed                    molecules; 2) vibrational predissociation which results when                    absorbed infrared energy exceeds the physisorbed surface bond                   strength; and 3) fluorescence from the vibrationally excited                    adsorbed molecule.
