The far-infrared vibrational spectra of molecular crystals are dominated by intramolecular (internal) modes, which are also present in the isolated molecule, and noncovalent intermolecular modes, which arise from the interaction of the nearest neighbours (external modes). Conceptually this has long been understood and early experiments [1] using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed the existence of a rich vibrational spectrum in polypeptides in the low-energy region. Yet, the assignment of the experimentally observed peaks in the low-energy region is often unsatisfying. Recently, the advent of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz TDS) has revitalized the field. Using this convenient room-temperature technique, noncovalent interactions between several smalland medium-sized molecules have been investigated, including nucleobases and nucleosides, [2][3][4] short-chain polypeptides, [5] cystine and glutathione, [6] retinal, [7] and saccharides.
