This research, part of the Experimental Physical Chemistry                      Program, is designed to understand defect phenomena in hydrogen                 bonded systems.  This research will lead to new insights into                   the mechanisms of ice crystal growth and nucleation, a field of                 importance to technologies varying from protection of                           agricultural crops to the understanding of the mechanisms of                    importance in transport of protons through cell walls.                                                                                                          The influence of interfacial effects on defect activities near                  surfaces will be studied to establish the relationships between                 defect activities and the ability of ice like structures to                     grow from metastable phases.  Ion pair studies in both protic                   and aprotic solvents will also be explored.  The experiments                    will be performed using the techniques of infrared and Raman                    spectroscopy on room and low temperature systems.  Emphasis                     will be paid to comparisons between matrix solvation spectra                    and the corresponding spectra obtained by others for vitrified                  aqueous systems.
