Investigations by Fourier Transform Microwave Spectroscopy

密歇根大学的罗伯特·L·库兹科夫斯基教授获得了美国国家科学基金会实验物理化学计划颁发的研究奖，该计划旨在利用长波辐射(类似于普通微波炉中的辐射)研究小团簇分子。这项工作将提供团簇分子的结构信息和电学性质。将开展一项研究计划，考察硬碱弱结合络合物和电荷转移络合物的偶极矩、结构和动力学。核四极耦合常数和高温样品也将通过傅里叶变换微波光谱学进行研究，库兹科夫斯基教授是这一领域的世界权威。他将继续与同样是密歇根大学化学系成员的库尔特·希利格博士进行富有成效的合作。

Professor Robert L. Kuczkowski of the University of Michigan has received a research award from the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program of the National Science Foundation to study small cluster molecules using long wavelength radiation (similar to that found in ordinary microwave ovens). This work will provide structural information and electrical properties on the cluster molecules. An investigative program which examines the dipole moments, structure and dynamics of weakly bound complexes of hard bases, and charge transfer complexes will be carried out. Nuclear quadrupole coupling constants and high temperature samples will also be investigated by means of Fourier Transform Microwave spectroscopy, a field in which Professor Kuczkowski is a world authority. He will continue his fruitful collaboration with Dr. Kurt Hillig, also a member of the University of Michigan's Chemistry Department.
