Water Research by Far-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy

  • Chapter
Far- and Deep-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy

Abstract

Far-ultraviolet (FUV) absorption spectroscopy provides molecular information about valence electronic transitions: σ, n, and π electron excitation and charge transfer (CT). FUV spectral measurements of liquid water and aqueous solutions had been limited, because the absorptivity of liquid water is very intense (absorptivity ~105 cm−1 at 150 nm). We have developed an attenuated total reflection (ATR)-type FUV spectrophotometer in order to measure FUV spectra of liquid water and aqueous solutions. The ATR–FUV spectroscopy reveals the features of the valence electronic transition of liquid water. This chapter introduces a brief overview of the first electronic transition \( \left(\tilde{A}\leftarrow \tilde{X}\right) \) of liquid water (Sect. 4.1) and the FUV spectral analyses (140–300 nm) of various aqueous solutions including how the hydrogen bonding interaction of liquid water affects the \( \tilde{A}\leftarrow \tilde{X} \) transition of water molecules (Sect. 4.1); how the \( \tilde{A}\leftarrow \tilde{X} \) bands of water molecules in Groups I, II, XIII, and lanthanoid (Ln3+) electrolyte solutions are associated with the hydration states of the metal cations (Sects. 4.2 and 4.3) how the protonation states of amino acids in aqueous solutions affect the electronic transition of the amino acids (Sect. 4.4) and the analysis of O3 pulse-photolytic reaction in aqueous solution using a nanosecond pump-probe transient FUV spectrophotometer (Sect. 4.5).
