The photochemistry of aromatic ketones plays a key role in various physicochemical and
biological processes, and solvent polarity can be used to tune their triplet state properties …

Interaction of adsorbate on charged surfaces, orientation of the analyte on the surface, and
surface enhancement aspects have been studied. These aspects have been explored in …

Based on resonant-convergent—and thereby complex—electric-dipole polarizabilities,
formulae for differential cross sections in resonant Raman spectroscopy are presented. In …

Solvent effects play a vital role in various chemical, physical, and biological processes. To
