The stretching fundamental bands of 13C2D2

The stretching fundamental bands of the isotopically substituted acetylene ¹³C₂D₂ have been recorded and analysed. The Raman spectra of the Q branch of v ₁ and v ₂, Σ⁺ _g -Σ⁺ _g bands, have been recorded with an instrumental resolution of about 3.0 x 10^?3 cm^?1 using inverse Raman spectroscopy. The infrared spectrum has been recorded in the region between 2350 cm^?1 and 2500 cm^?1 with an instrumental resolution of 4.0 x 10^?3 cm^?1. Transitions belonging to the v ₃, Σ⁺ _u -Σ⁺ _g , fundamental band have been identified and assigned. The vibrational energies and the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants of the excited states of all the observed transitions have been determined. The molecular parameters obtained reproduce the assigned wave-numbers with a standard deviation of the same order of magnitude as the experimental uncertainty.     

Torsion-rotation levels of the OH stretch fundamental of CD3OH

The infrared absorption of CD₃OH in the OH stretch region has been observed at 0.025-cm^?1 resolution. Seventeen excited-state torsion-rotation levels E′_nτK have been determined with the aid of combination differences and Loomis-Wood diagrams. Of these levels, seven belong to n = 2 and nine to n = 1. No levels for which n = 0 could be determined. Analysis of the observed levels yields a hindering potential barrier in the excited state of 407 cm^?1.     

OH stretching vibrations in monodomain KNbO3

Infrared absorption bands due to OH stretching vibrations have been investigated in monodomain KNbO₃ at different temperatures. The results obtained in the orthorhombic phase for polarized light suggest hydrogen positions predominantly along the O-O directions of the oxygen octahedron parallel to the spontaneous polarization.     

IR wavelength-selective laser desorption via OH and CH stretching modes

We present new results on wavelength-selective desorption of solid samples using the resonant interaction between the laser beam and the bulk. The experimental set-up is based on the coupling of three techniques: laser desorption in the near-infrared (IR) (2.7–4 μm) with a tunable IR optical parametric oscillator (OPO), UV multi-photon ionization, and reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The resonant character of the laser desorption process has been investigated for an ice/polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) mixture, by excitation of the OH and CH stretching modes. Highly preferential desorption has been evidenced, with exclusive desorption of water and PAH molecules at the OH and CH resonances, respectively. Potential analytical (e.g. selective analysis of complex samples) and technological (e.g. dry laser cleaning, DLC) applications are discussed.     

A determination of fundamental Zeeman parameters for the OH radical

Measurements of the gas-phase E.P.R. spectra of OH in the J = 9/2 and 11/2 levels of the X²II state at 26 GHz and 35 GHz respectively are reported. Confocal and semi-confocal optical resonators have been used in place of the more conventional microwave cavities for these experiments. The data are analysed, together with previous measurements by Radford on other rotational levels in the determination of six independent g factors:

These parameters are interpreted in terms of the electronic structure of the OH radical. In agreement with previous workers, it is found that the major contaminant of the X²II state is the A²Σ⁺ state and that this pair of states is a good example of Van Vleck's pure precession hypothesis.     

Analysis of the fundamental asymmetric stretching mode of T2O

The ν₃ mode of T₂O, observed at 0.04 cm⁻¹, has been analyzed. By an iterative process of fitting and assignment 210 lines were assigned; 167 of these were used in the final fitting. The standard deviation of the fit is 0.023 cm⁻¹. The rotational constants, A, B, and C, as well as the quartic distortion constants, have been evaluated for the excited state.     

Constraining the variation of fundamental constants using 18 cm OH lines

We describe a new technique to estimate variations in the fundamental constants using 18 cm OH absorption lines, with the advantage that all lines arise in the same species, allowing a clean comparison between the measured redshifts. In conjunction with one additional transition, it is possible to simultaneously measure changes in alpha, g(p), and y identical with m(e)/m(p). We use the 1665 and 1667 MHz line redshifts in conjunction with those of HI 21 cm and mm-wave molecular absorption in a gravitational lens at z approximately 0.68 to constrain changes in the three parameters over the redshift range 0相似文献   

High-resolution infrared measurements on HSOH: Analysis of the OH fundamental vibrational mode

High-resolution infrared measurements of the OH-stretching mode of oxadisulfane, HSOH, at 3625 cm⁻¹ have been recorded using a Bruker IFS 120 HR Fourier transform spectrometer. More than 1300 lines have been assigned to the ν(OH) fundamental vibration mode, which is a hybrid band showing a c-type perpendicular band and an a-type parallel band spectrum of an asymmetric rotor molecule. The splitting due to the torsional-tunneling has not been observed in this band. The band center position at 3625.59260(20) cm⁻¹ as well as rotational and centrifugal distortion constants for the ν(OH) vibrational excited state have been obtained from a least-squares fit analysis of a semirigid rotor. In addition the α_OH experimental vibration-rotation correction terms of the OH-stretching mode have been derived and compared to values used in an earlier semi-empirical calculation of the HSOH structure. All data are in very good agreement with high level ab initio calculations and confirm the assignment of an earlier matrix isolation spectrum at 3608 cm⁻¹ to the ν(OH) fundamental mode.

利用532 nm脉冲激光进行水的受激拉曼散射研究,通过改变激光焦点与水-空气界面的距离,获得截然不同的OH伸缩振动受激斯托克斯和反斯托克斯谱线.焦点距水-空气界面大于20 mm时,只存在±3400cm-1的斯托克斯和反斯托克斯谱线;焦点距离水-空气界面小于20 mm时,存在±3000和±3400cm-1的斯托克斯和反斯托克斯谱线;继续缩小焦点与水-空气界面的距离,3000 cm-1谱线被增强,而3400 cm-1谱线被削弱.研究结果表明,激光诱导水产生的等离子体增强了局部水分子的氢键,导致OH伸缩振动红移,同时过剩电子增强了水的OH伸缩振动受激拉曼散射.     

Changes in the Raman spectrum of OH stretching vibrations of water in an ultrasonic cavitation field

A modification of the local structure of molecular aggregates in liquid water subjected to the action of an ultrasonic cavitation field is found. This modification is detected by the shift of the center of the Raman band contour of the OH stretching vibrations. It was also found that both the structure and the growth rate of lysozyme crystals grown in redistilled Milli-Q water and in water subjected to cavitation treatment differ considerably from each other.     

Ion formation upon water excitation by IR laser radiation in the range of OH stretching vibrations

The ion formation and emission upon the excitation of liquid water in the range of OH stretching vibrations were observed and studied. The radiation source was a nanosecond parametric light oscillator tunable in the range of 2.7–3.3 μm. The ions were detected by an ion-mobility spectrometer.     

Constraints on changes in fundamental constants from a cosmologically distant OH absorber or emitter

We have detected the four 18 cm OH lines from the z approximaetely 0.765 gravitational lens toward PMN J0134-0931. The 1612 and 1720 MHz lines are in conjugate absorption and emission, providing a laboratory to test the evolution of fundamental constants over a large lookback time. We compare the HI and OH main line absorption redshifts of the different components in the z approximately 0.765 absorber and the z approximately 0.685 lens toward B0218 + 357 to place stringent constraints on changes in F triple-bond g(p)[alpha(2)/mu](1.57). We obtain [DeltaF/F] = (0.44 +/- 0.36(stat) +/- 1.0(sys)t) x 10(-5), consistent with no evolution over the redshift range 0 < z < or = 0.7. The measurements have a 2sigma sensitivity of [Deltaalpha/alpha] < 6.7 x 10(-6) or [Deltamu/mu] < 1.4 x 10(-5) to fractional changes in alpha and mu over a period of approximately 6.5 G yr, half the age of the Universe. These are among the most sensitive constraints on changes in mu.     

Torsional bands of hydroxylamine

Infrared absorption spectrum of NH₂OH has been observed in its gaseous state, and the fine structures of the bands at 386 and 751 cm^?1 assignable, respectively, to the fundamental and overtone of the torsional vibration of this molecule have been examined. Band center frequencies for the n = 1 ← 0, 2 ← 1, 3 ← 2, 2 ← 0, and 3 ← 1 transitions (where n is the vibrational quantum number of the torsional oscillation) have been determined to be 386.2, 365.1, 346.3, 751.2, and 711.3 cm^?1, respectively. On the basis of these data, a discussion is given on the internal-rotation potential function.
