Abstract

One of the efforts in our laboratory has been focused on the application of pressure-tuning infrared and Raman spectroscopy for the study of the structural and dynamic properties in systems of both simple and complex molecules. These molecular systems are not only in the solid state, but also in the amorphous state, the liquid state and in solutions, including aqueous solution. In the present review, examples of the complex molecular systems are given in the categories of polymethylene chain systems, two-dimensional solutions in lipid bilayers, and biological tissues and cells. These examples are selected to demonstrate that pressure-tuning vibrational spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the studies of problems ranging from fundamental vibrational spectroscopy to structural changes at the molecular level in human diseases.
