A preliminary study of perylene-CO van der Waals complexes has been conducted. The spectroscopy of the major in-plane and out-of-plane features ofthe I : 1 and 1:2 perylene-CO aggregates hasbeen analyzed. Little perturbation to the G 'butterfly" outof-plane mode is seen in the complex, indicating th

โฆ Synopsis
The solvation and structure of vdW complexes formed in supersonic free-jet expansions of perylene with rare gas atoms and organic "solvent" molecules, using helium as carrier gas, have been investigated. The complexes were probed and analysed by combining laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy with approximate summed pair-potential calculations. Theoretical examination of the bathochromic spectral shifts for the isolated 1: 1 vdW complexes is consistent between solvent-shift theory and equilibrium configuration calculations. Analysis of the spectral shifts assumes they arise solely through the change in dispersion energies on electronic excitation and that this difference can be estimated using average excitation energies.
