Longitudinal Acoustical Vibrations of Finite Polymethylene Chains
Abstract
The low-frequency Raman scattering spectra of finite polymethylene chains, observed utilizing laser excitation, show a band progression whose frequencies vary inversely and continuously as a function of chain length. It was established that these transitions arise from the longitudinal acoustical vibration of the chain skeleton and its overtones. These results are related to recent theoretical calculations for crystal vibrations of the infinite chain and are found to be in excellent quantitative agreement. An accurate spectroscopic value is derived for the elastic modulus of polyethylene.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
