Time-resolved Vibrational Spectroscopy

This Special Issue features the most recent and exciting experimental and theoretical results in the field of time-resolved vibrational spectroscopy. These results include the work that was reported at the Time Resolved Vibrational Spectroscopy (TRVS) conference held in Amsterdam in 2023. TRVS is a biennial international conference that brings together a thriving community of chemists, physicists, engineers, biophysicists and material scientists. TRVS 2023 covered the most recent results on intra- and intermolecular vibrational excitations in gas-phase molecular clusters, biomolecular systems, nanostructures, complex liquids, and at interfaces. The conference also showcased new techniques and approaches that will further develop the field.

Guest Editors:Huib J. Bakker, Klaas Wynne, Jasper van Thor, with JCP Editors Jennifer P. Ogilvie, Mischa Bonn, Renee Frontiera, Tim Lian and Qiang Shi.
