Abstract
Surface chemistry dictates the optoelectronic properties of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). Tailoring these properties relies on the meticulous selection of surface ligands for efficient passivation. While long-chain organic ligands boast a well-understood passivation mechanism, the intricacies of short inorganic ionic ligands remain largely unexplored. This study sheds light on the surface-passivation mechanism of short inorganic ligands, particularly focusing on SCN- ions on CdSe QDs. Employing steady-state and time-resolved infrared spectroscopic techniques, we elucidated the surface-ligand interactions and coordination modes of SCN--capped CdSe QDs. Comparative analysis with studies on CdS QDs unveils intriguing insights into the coordination behavior and passivation efficacy of SCN- ions on Cd2+ rich QD surfaces. Our results reveal the requirement of both surface-bound (strong binding) and weakly-interacting interfacial SCN- ions for effective CdSe QD passivation. Beyond fostering a deeper understanding of surface-ligand interactions and highlighting the importance of a comprehensive exploration of ligand chemistries, this study holds implications for optimizing QD performance across diverse applications.

Abstract
Alcohol/alkane solutions widely used in chemical synthesis and as transportation fuels are highly non-ideal due to the nanoscale clustering of the amphiphilic alcohol molecules within the nonpolar alkanes. Besides impacting reactivity, such as combustion, non-ideal solutions are likely to exhibit unusual solvation dynamics on ultrafast time scales arising from the structurally heterogeneous nature of molecular-scale association. Using a convenient transition metal carbonyl vibrational probe [(C5H5)Mn(CO)3, CMT], linear absorption and nonlinear two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy reveal composition-dependent solvation dynamics as reported by the frequency fluctuation correlation function in a series of ethanol/heptane solutions. Slow spectral diffusion with dilute ethanol indicates preferential solvation of the polar solute by the alcohol with a mechanism largely dominated by solvent exchange. Comparison with an ethanol/acetonitrile solution series yields no substantial preferential solvation or solvent exchange signatures in the linear or 2D-IR spectra. In ethanol/heptane solutions, increasing the ethanol concentration speeds up the solvation dynamics, which is largely consistent with a model that includes solvent exchange and single-solvent spectral diffusion. Detailed analysis of the deviation from the experimental time constants from the model's optimal parameters yields a remarkable resemblance of the concentration-weighted Kirkwood-Buff integrals for ethanol/heptane solutions. This trend indicates that solution non-ideality alters the spectral diffusion dynamics of the probe solute. Given that nanoscale clustering drives the non-ideality, these experiments reveal a dynamical consequence of nanoscale heterogeneity on the ultrafast dynamics of the solution. Refined understanding of the structural and dynamical aspects of mixed solvents will be necessary for predictive solution strategies in chemistry.

Abstract
Advancements in Li-ion battery (LIB) technology hinge on an understanding of Li-ion solvation and charge transport dynamics. Ultrafast two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy has been used to investigate these dynamics in electrolytes by probing chemical exchange processes through time-dependent cross-peak analysis. However, accurate interpretation is complicated by factors such as vibrational energy transfer and molecular photothermal effect (MPTE), affecting cross-peak evolution. Pinpointing the precise origin of these cross-peaks has posed a significant challenge in time-resolved IR spectroscopic studies of LIB electrolytes. Here, we trace the origin of 2D-IR cross-peaks of LIB electrolytes utilizing acetonitrile as a solvent. Time-dependent analysis of LiSCN and CH3SCN mixtures in CD3CN revealed distinctive MPTE features. Furthermore, direct observation of intermolecular MPTE through two-color IR pump-probe spectroscopy lends support to the findings. Our results emphasize the non-negligible artifacts induced by MPTE and the necessity of considering these effects to accurately observe the ultrafast dynamics within LIB electrolytes.

Abstract
The effects of limited amounts (under 21.6% χWater) of water on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BmimBF4) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide (BmimDCA) room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) mixtures were characterized by tracking changes in the linear and two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) vibrational features of the dicyanamide anion (DCA). Peak shifts with increasing water suggest the formation of water-associated and nonwater-associated DCA populations. Further results showed clear differences in the dynamic behavior of these different populations of DCA at low (defined here as below 2.5% χWater), mid (defined here as between 2.5% χWater and 9.6% χWater), and high (defined here as between 11.6% χWater and 21.6% χWater) range water concentrations. Vibrational relaxation is accelerated with increasing water content for water-associated populations of DCA, indicating water facilitates population relaxation, possibly through the provision of additional bath modes. Conversely, spectral diffusion of water-associated populations slowed dramatically with increasing water, suggesting that water drives the formation of distinct and noninterchangeable or very slowly interchangeable local solvent environments.

Abstract
Time-resolved IR pump-probe (IR-PP) and two-dimensional IR (2D-IR) spectroscopy are valuable tools for studying ultrafast chemical and biological processes in solutions. However, the corresponding signals at long times are obscured by the molecular photothermal effects resulting from the heat dissipation of vibrationally photoexcited molecules to the surroundings. Recently, a phenomenology model was used to describe molecular photothermal effects on IR-PP signals and the diagonal and cross-peaks of 2D-IR spectra at long pump-probe delay times. Here, we consider the thermal diffusion equation with a time-dependent heat source term to describe the solute-solvent energy transfer process. An approximate solution to the nonhomogeneous differential equation shows that the molecular photothermal effect is determined by the mean intermolecular distance between IR-absorbing molecules. We show that the time profile of heat dissipation from a vibrationally excited molecule to the surroundings, which provides information about the mechanisms involved in the solute-solvent intermolecular energy transfer process in solutions, can be directly measured by analyzing the molecular photothermal IR-PP and 2D-IR signals. We anticipate that the present work can be used to interpret local heating-induced time-resolved IR spectroscopic signals and understand the rate of and the mechanisms involved in the conversion from high-frequency molecular vibrational energy to solvent kinetic energy in condensed phases.

Abstract
Time-resolved IR pump-probe (IR-PP) and two-dimensional IR (2D-IR) spectroscopy are valuable techniques for studying various ultrafast chemical and biological processes in solutions. The time-dependent changes of nonlinear IR signals reflecting fast molecular processes such as vibrational energy transfer and chemical exchange provide invaluable information on the rates and mechanisms of solvation dynamics and structural transitions of multi-species vibrationally interacting molecular systems. However, due to the intrinsic difficulties in distinguishing the contributions of molecule-specific processes to the time-resolved IR signals from those resulting from local heating, it becomes challenging to interpret time-resolved IR-PP and 2D-IR spectra exhibiting transient growing-in spectral components and cross-peaks unambiguously. Here, theoretical considerations of various effects of vibrational coupling, energy transfer, chemical exchange, the generation of hot ground states, molecular photothermal process, and their combinations on the lineshapes and time-dependent intensities of IR-PP spectra and 2D-IR diagonal and cross-peaks are presented. We anticipate that the present work will help researchers using IR pump-probe and 2D-IR techniques to distinguish local heating-induced photothermal signals from genuine nonlinear IR signals.

Abstract
Understanding the mechanisms of charge transport in batteries is important for the rational design of new electrolyte formulations. Persistent questions about ion transport mechanisms in battery electrolytes are often framed in terms of vehicular diffusion by persistent ion-solvent complexes versus structural diffusion through the breaking and reformation of ion-solvent contacts, i.e., solvent exchange events. Ultrafast two-dimensional (2D) IR spectroscopy can probe exchange processes directly via the evolution of the cross-peaks on picosecond time scales. However, vibrational energy transfer in the absence of solvent exchange gives rise to the same spectral signatures, hiding the desired processes. We employ 2D IR on solvent resonances of a mixture of acetonitrile isotopologues to differentiate chemical exchange and energy-transfer dynamics in a comprehensive series of Li+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+, and Ba2+ bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide electrolytes from the dilute to the superconcentrated regime. No exchange phenomena occur within at least 100 ps, regardless of the ion identity, salt concentration, and presence of water. All of the observed spectral dynamics originate from the intermolecular energy transfer. These results place the lower experimental boundary on the ion-solvent residence times to several hundred picoseconds, much slower than previously suggested. With the help of MD simulations and conductivity measurements on the Li+ and Zn2+ systems, we discuss these results as a continuum of vehicular and structural modalities that vary with concentration and emphasize the importance of collective electrolyte motions to ion transport. These results hold broadly applicable to many battery-relevant ions and solvents.

Abstract
The nanocrystal surface, which acts as an interface between the semiconductor lattice and the capping ligands, plays a significant role in the attractive photophysical properties of semiconductor nanocrystals for use in a wide range of applications. Replacing the long-chain organic ligands with short inorganic variants improves the conductivity and carrier mobility of nanocrystal-based devices. However, our current understanding of the interactions between the inorganic ligands and the nanocrystals is obscure due to the lack of experiments to directly probe the inorganic ligands. Herein, using two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy, we show that the variations in the inorganic ligand dynamics within the heterogeneous nanocrystal ensemble can identify the diversities in the inorganic ligand-nanocrystal interactions. The ligand dynamics time scale in SCN- capped CdS nanocrystals identifies three distinct ligand populations and provides molecular insight into the nanocrystal surface. Our results demonstrate that the SCN- ligands engage in a dynamic equilibrium and stabilize the nanocrystals by neutralizing the surface charges through both direct binding and electrostatic interaction.

Abstract
Understanding molecular interactions and dynamics of proteins and DNA in a cell-like crowded environment is crucial for predicting their functions within the cell. Noncanonical G-quadruplex DNA (GqDNA) structures adopt various topologies that were shown to be strongly affected by molecular crowding. However, it is unknown how such crowding affects the solvation dynamics in GqDNA. Here, we study the effect of cosolvent (acetonitrile) crowding on ligand (DAPI) solvation dynamics within human telomeric antiparallel GqDNA through direct comparison of time-resolved fluorescence Stokes shift (TRFSS) experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations results. We show that ligand binding affinity to GqDNA is drastically affected by acetonitrile (ACN). Solvation dynamics probed by DAPI in GqDNA groove show dispersed dynamics from ∼100 fs to 10 ns in the absence and presence of 20% and 40% (v/v) ACN. The nature of dynamics remain similar in buffer and 20% ACN, although in 40% ACN, distinct dynamics is observed in <100 ps. MD simulations performed on GqDNA/DAPI complex reveal preferential solvation of ligand by ACN, particularly in 40% ACN. Simulated solvation time-correlation functions calculated from MD trajectories compare very well to the overall solvation dynamics of DAPI in GqDNA, observed in experiments. Linear response decomposition of simulated solvation correlation functions unfolds the origin of dispersed dynamics, showing that the slower dynamics is dominated by DNA-motion in the presence of ACN (and also by the ACN dynamics at higher concentration). However, water-DNA coupled motion controls the slow dynamics in the absence of ACN. Our data, thus, unravel a detailed molecular picture showing that though ACN crowding affect ligand binding affinity to GqDNA significantly, the overall dispersed solvation dynamics in GqDNA remain similar in the absence and the presence of 20% ACN, albeit with a small effect on the dynamics in the presence of 40% ACN due to preferential solvation of ligand by ACN.

Abstract
5-Aminoquinoline (5AQ) has been used as a fluorescent probe of preferential solvation (PS) in binary solvent mixtures in which the nonpolar component is diethyl ether and the polar component is protic (methanol) or aprotic (acetonitrile). Hence, the roles of solvent polarity and solute-solvent hydrogen bonding have been delineated. Positive deviations of spectral shifts from a linear dependence on the concentration of the polar component, signifying PS, are markedly more pronounced in case of the protic solvent. Solvation dynamics on a nanosecond time scale mark the formation of the solvation shell around the fluorescent probe. Time-resolved area-normalized emission spectra indicate the occurrence of the continuous solvation of the excited state when the polar component is acetonitrile. In contrast, two distinct states were observed when the polar component was methanol, the second state being the hydrogen bonded one. Translational diffusion is the rate-determining step for formation of the solvation shell. The time constant associated with it has been estimated from rise times observed in fluorescence transients monitored at the red end of the fluorescence spectra and also from the time evolution of the spectral width of time-resolved emission spectra.

Abstract
Two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy is used to measure the spectral dynamics of the metal carbonyl complex cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (CMT) in a series of linear alkyl nitriles. 2D-IR spectroscopy provides direct readout of solvation dynamics through spectral diffusion, probing the decay of frequency correlation induced by fluctuations of the solvent environment. 2D-IR simultaneously monitors intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) among excited vibrations, which can also be influenced by the solvent through the spectral density rather than the dynamical friction underlying solvation. Here, we report that the CMT vibrational probe reveals solvent dependences in both the spectral diffusion and the IVR time scales, where each slows with increased alkyl chain length. In order to assess the degree to which solute-solvent interactions can be correlated with bulk solvent properties, we compared our results with low-frequency dynamics obtained from optical Kerr effect (OKE) spectroscopy-performed by others-on the same nitrile solvent series. We find excellent correlation between our spectral diffusion results and the orientational dynamics time scales from OKE. We also find a correlation between our IVR time scales and the amplitudes of the low-frequency spectral densities evaluated at the 90-cm-1 energy difference, corresponding to the gap between the two strong vibrational modes of the carbonyl probe. 2D-IR and OKE provide complementary perspectives on condensed phase dynamics, and these findings provide experimental evidence that at least at the level of dynamical correlations, some aspects of a solute vibrational dynamics can be inferred from properties of the solvent.

Abstract
Disruption of the deep eutectic solvent (DES) nanostructure around the dissolved solute upon addition of water is investigated by polarization-selective two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations. The heterogeneous DES nanostructure around the solute is partially retained up to 41 wt % of added water, although water molecules are gradually incorporated in the solute's solvation shell even at lower hydration levels. Beyond 41 wt %, the solute is observed to be preferentially solvated by water. This composition denotes the upper hydration limit of the deep eutectic solvent above which the solute senses an aqueous solvation environment. Interestingly, our results indicate that the transition from a deep eutectic solvation environment to an aqueous one around the dissolved solute can happen at a hydration level lower than that reported for the "water in DES" to "DES in water" transition.

Abstract
In this work, we study spectral diffusion of molecular excitons in thin films of 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic-diimide by using two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES). Temperature dependence of the spectral diffusion is studied from 105 to 471 K by analyzing the center line slope (CLS) of the ground-state bleach in the 2DES signal. A significant acceleration of the decay of the CLS with increasing the temperature is observed, which cannot be explained by a linear system-bath coupling model with a harmonic bath. We propose an anharmonic coupling model as the underlying mechanism, in which the exciton energy gap fluctuations by a high-frequency intramolecular vibration are enhanced by coupling with a low-frequency phonon mode.

Abstract
Two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy provides access to equilibrium dynamics with the extraction of the frequency-fluctuation correlation function (FFCF) from the measured spectra. Several different methods of obtaining the FFCF from experimental spectra, such as the center line slope (CLS), ellipticity, phase slope, and nodal line slope, all depend on the geometrical nature of the 2D line shape and necessarily require spectral extent in order to achieve a measure of the FFCF. Amplitude measures, on the other hand, such as the inhomogeneity index, rely only on signal amplitudes and can, in principle, be computed using just a single point in a 2D spectrum. With a pulse shaper-based 2D-IR spectrometer, in conjunction with phase cycling, we separate the rephasing and nonrephasing signals used to determine the inhomogeneity index. The same measured data provide the absorptive spectrum, needed for the CLS. Both methods are applied to two model molecular systems: tungsten hexacarbonyl (WCO6) and methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl [Cp'Mn(CO)3, MCMT]. The three degenerate IR modes of W(CO)6 lack coherent modulation or noticeable intramolecular vibrational redistribution (IVR) and are used to establish a baseline comparison. The two bands of the MCMT tripod complex include intraband coherences and IVR as well as likely internal torsional motion on a few-picosecond time scale. We find essentially identical spectral diffusion, but faster, non-equilibrium dynamics lead to differences in the FFCFs extracted with the two methods. The inhomogeneity index offers an advantage in cases where spectra are complex and energy transfer can mimic line shape changes due to frequency fluctuations.

Abstract
Instantaneous Marcus theory (IMT) offers a way for capturing the time-dependent charge transfer (CT) rate coefficient in nonequilibrium photoinduced CT processes, where the system was photoexcited from its equilibrated ground state vertically to the excitonic state, followed by an electronic transition to the CT state. As derived from the linearized semiclassical nonequilibrium Fermi's golden rule (LSC NE-FGR), the original IMT requires expensive all-atom nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations. In this work, we propose computationally efficient linear-response and nonlinear-response formulations for IMT rate calculations, which only require equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. The linear- and nonlinear-response IMT methods were tested to predict the transient behavior in the photoinduced CT dynamics of the carotenoid-porphyrin-C60 molecular triad solvated in explicit tetrahydrofuran. Our result demonstrated that the nonlinear-response IMT is in excellent agreement with the benchmark NEMD for all cases investigated here, whereas the linear-response IMT predicts the correct trend for all cases but overestimates the transient CT rate in one case involving a significant nonequilibrium relaxation. This mild breakdown of linear-response IMT is due to neglecting the higher-order terms in the exact nonlinear-response IMT. Taking advantage of time translational symmetry, the linear- and nonlinear-response approaches were demonstrated to be able to reduce the computational cost by 80% and 60% compared with NEMD simulations, respectively. Thus, we highly recommend the readily applicable and accurate nonlinear-response IMT approach for simulating nonequilibrium CT processes in complex molecular systems in the condensed phase.

Abstract
A new approach to estimate atomic energies is introduced. The method is based on utilization of experimental ionization energies as well as conversion of "n-electron atomic systems" to n "one-electron systems." Sample detail calculations are presented with typical graphs to show the distribution of different types of energy within an atom. The breakdown of atomic energies into kinetic, electron-nucleus attraction, and electron-electron repulsion is shown within an atom as well the total of energies of each type for elements. Then in a following step, the variations in kinetic, electron-electron, and electron-nucleus interaction energies of electrons as evidence for atomic shell changes are presented. Furthermore, the article overviews the spatial gaps between orbitals as an added evidence for existence of electronic shells. The findings in this article have significant implications for the structure of atoms and the layout of periodic table.

Abstract
The frequency fluctuation correlation function (FFCF) measures the spectral diffusion of a state's transition while the frequency fluctuation cross-correlation function (FXCF) measures the correlation dynamics between the transitions of two separate states. These quantities contain a wealth of information on how the chromophores or excitonic states interact and couple with its environment and with each other. We summarize the experimental implementations and theoretical considerations of using two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy to characterize FFCFs and FXCFs. Applications can be found in systems such as the chlorophyll pigment molecules in light-harvesting complexes and CdSe nanomaterials.

Abstract
This article relies only on experimental data rather than getting involved with theories, calculations, approximations, or interpolations. Experimental ionization energies of all atoms in the periodic table are collected and utilized to discover the order of electronic shells. The assumption in this paper is mainly the energy difference between atomic shells. In other words, one should observe an abrupt change in the energy moving from one atomic shell to another. Electronic energies within an atom are either kinetic or potential. Potential energy can be further broken into "electron-nucleus attraction" and "electron-electron repulsion" energies. The ionization energy that holds an electron onto an atom is equal to the balance of electronic energies. Electronic energies should show jumps and drops when moving from one atomic shell to another and ionization energy is the only part of total energy that can be obtained experimentally. Hence, the variations of experimental ionization energies between consecutive electrons were utilized to investigate the order of atomic shells. The variations of ionization energy were drawn versus the electron numbers to find abrupt changes in the energy, which are so-called "peaks". Then the observed peaks in the graphs were recorded as evidence for the order of atomic shells. The observed order of peaks did not completely match and support the order of atomic shells given by the well-known aufbau (or Madelung) rule. Thus, the observation is reported and a consistent view of the periodic table according to the new order is presented.

Abstract
In homogeneous photocatalytic reduction of CO2, it is widely assumed that the primary electron transfer from the sacrificial donor to the catalyst is diffusion controlled, thus little attention has been paid to optimizing this step. We present spectroscopic evidence that the precursor complex is preformed, driven by preferential solvation, and two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy reveals triethanolamine (donor)/tetrahydrofuran (solvent) exchange in the photocatalyst's solvation shell, reaching greatest magnitude at the known optimal concentration (∼20% v/v TEOA in THF) for catalytically reducing CO2 to CO. Transient infrared absorption shows the appearance of the singly reduced catalyst on an ultrafast (<70 ps) time scale, consistent with non-diffusion controlled electron transfer within the preformed precursor complex. Identification of preferential catalyst-cosolvent interactions suggests a revised paradigm for the primary electron transfer, while illuminating the pivotal importance of solvent exchange in determining the overall efficiency of the photocycle.

Abstract
Cosolvents have versatile composition-dependent applications in chemistry and biology. The simultaneous presence of hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an industrially important amphiphilic cosolvent, when combined with the unique properties of water, plays key roles in the diverse fields of pharmacology, cryoprotection, and cell biology. Moreover, molecules dissolved in aqueous DMSO exhibit an anomalous concentration-dependent nonmonotonic behavior in stability and activity near a critical DMSO mole fraction of 0.15. An experimental identification of the origin of this anomaly can lead to newer chemical and biological applications. We report a direct spectroscopic observation of the anomalous behavior using ultrafast two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy experiments. Our results demonstrate the cosolvent-concentration-dependent nonmonotonicity arises from nonidentical mechanisms in ultrafast hydrogen-bond-exchange dynamics of water above and below the critical cosolvent concentration. Comparison of experimental and theoretical results provides a molecular-level mechanistic understanding: a distinct difference in the stabilization of the solute through dynamic solute-solvent interactions is the key to the anomalous behavior.
