Description for Ultrafast Dynamics of Phospholipid-Water Interfaces
Hardback. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 113 pages, 36 black & white illustrations, 6 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHN; PHVN; PNFS; PNR; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 8. Weight in Grams: 345.
This thesis presents a highly innovative study of the ultrafast structural and vibrational dynamics of hydrated phospholipids, the basic constituents of cell membranes. As a novel approach to the water-phospholipid interface, the author studies phosphate vibrations using the most advanced methods of nonlinear vibrational spectroscopy, including femtosecond two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy. He shows for the first time that the structure of interfacial water undergoes very limited fluctuations on a 300 fs time scale and that the lifetimes of hydrogen bonds with the phospholipid are typically longer than 10 ps. Such properties originate from the steric hindrance of water fluctuations at the ... Read more
