Infrared spectroscopy of fluoride molecules in noble gas solutions

Experimental evidence for the molecular molybdenum fluorides MoF to MoF6: a matrix isolation and DFT investigation

“…Molybdenum hexafluoride is commonly used in CVD processes [1][2][3][4][5] and since the first report of its preparation in 1907 6 its vibrational spectra have been widely studied in the gas phase, [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] noble gas solutions, 15 solid noble gas solutions, 16 and solid cryogenic matrices. [17][18][19][20][21][22][23] Solid state structures have been obtained from X-ray powder diffraction, 24,25 single crystal X-ray diffraction, 26 low temperature Mo K-edge EXAFS, 27 as well as vapour phase structures from gas phase electron diffraction.…”
