Fourier Transform Spectroscopy of the A'(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) System of CaO

The A'(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) near-infrared system of CaO was observed for the first time at high resolution using a Fourier transform spectrometer. The A'(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) chemiluminescence was excited in a Ca + N(2)O flame produced in a Broida-type oven. More than 3000 rotational lines, classified into 19 bands involving the A'(1)Pi 0 /= 2) levels with the nearby b(3)Sigma(+) (v-2) levels has been detected. An extended set of A'(1)Pi (v = 0-3) data has been obtained which is suitable for use in a future multistate deperturbation analysis of the a(3)Pi approximately A'(1)Pi approximately b(3)Sigma(+) approximately A(1)Sigma(+) complex of excited states. The new near-infrared spectra of the A'(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) transition of CaO also permits the first direct high-resolution linkage between the orange and green systems and the near-infrared bands.

The (1)(3)Pi Electronic State of LaF

Rotational studies of bands of the infrared systems (1)(3)Pi-->(1)(3)Delta and (1)(3)Pi(1)-->X(1)Sigma(+) of lanthanum monofluoride were carried out with the aim of characterizing the (1)(3)Pi state, assuming the previous representations of X(1)Sigma(+) and (1)(3)Delta (1-3). The vibrational levels of (1)(3)Pi involved in the analyzed transitions were v=0, 1, 2 of the Omega=0 component, v=0, 1 of the Omega=1 component, and v=0 of the Omega=2 component. Perturbations were observed in both systems which were ascribed to spin-uncoupling interactions between (1)(3)Pi(2)(v=0) and (1)(3)Pi(1)(v=1) levels. A 9x9 matrix representation at equilibrium of the complex of interacting levels (v=0, 1, 2) was constructed, each diagonal v-block corresponding to a triplet model of the rovibrational (3)Pi Hamiltonian. The wavenumbers of some 1910 lines in the two systems were simultaneously fitted (rms error of the fit of about 0.0053 cm(-1)), thus yielding a consistent set of accurate spectroscopic constants for the (1)(3)Pi state; the spin-uncoupling interaction parameter was determined as B(Pi)(0, 1)=0.010917(13) cm(-1).

Anomalous Vibrational Dependence of the Rotational and Hyperfine Parameters in the B(4)Pi-X(4)Sigma(-) Transition of NbO

The laser excitation spectrum of jet-cooled NbO in the region 16 000-18 000 cm(-1) has been recorded at high resolution, giving rotational and hyperfine constants for the levels v=0-3 of the B(4)Pi state and v=1 of the X(4)Sigma(-) state; zero gaps have also been measured at low resolution for some weaker bands involving higher vibrational levels. Taken together with the laser data for the B-X (0,0) band from Adam et al. (J. Chem. Phys. 94, 6240-6262 (1994)) and the Fourier transform emission data for the doublet manifold from Launila et al. (J. Mol. Spectrosc. 186, 131-143 (1997)), the new data give a very complete picture of the vibrational energy level pattern in this region. Strong irregularities in the vibrational dependences of the B(4)Pi rotational and hyperfine constants can be interpreted in terms of spin-orbit interaction between the B(4)Pi state and the f(2)Pi, e(2)Phi, and d(2)Delta states. The interaction is strong enough that all three doublet states can be seen in absorption from the X(4)Sigma(-) ground state, adding to the complexity of the spectrum. The hitherto unknown sigmadeltasigma* (4)Delta state is estimated to lie near 17 500 cm(-1), from the change of sign in the spin-rotation parameter gamma of the B(4)Pi state between v=2 and 3.

The Comet-Tail (A(2)Pi(i)-X(2)Sigma(+)) System of (12)C(16)O(+): A Reinvestigation

The emission spectrum of the comet-tail (A(2)Pi(i)-X(2)Sigma(+)) system of (12)C(16)O(+) produced in the cathode glow of a hollow-cathode discharge tube and photographed in the spectral region 3345-8500 ? at high resolution was reinvestigated. Detailed rotational analysis of 10 bands involving 5 vibrational levels v = 0 to 4 of each of the A and X states was carried out. Spin-splitting of the rotational levels was observed for the analyzed bands. The observed intensity distribution of the branches is found to be in good agreement with theoretical calculations. Molecular constants for both the A and X states were obtained from a global fit of the present data of the A-X system and the infrared and microwave data available from the literature for v = 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 of state X, using effective Hamiltonian for the A(2)Pi state and matrix elements for both A and X states. The present work suggests that the A(2)Pi(i) state changes from Hund's case (a) at low J values to Hund's case (b) at high J values. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Laser-Excited Fluorescence Spectra of Strontium Monoiodide

Fluorescence spectra of strontium monoiodide excited by Ar++ and Kr+ laser lines have been analyzed by Fourier transform spectrometry. Rotational levels have been populated either directly or after collisional relaxation: (i) in D2Sigma+ (v = 0, 1) by ultraviolet lines of Ar++, inducing numerous fluorescence transitions ending in the levels v = 0-3 of the strongly interacting A2Pi and B2Sigma+ states, (ii) in A2Pi3/2 (v = 0-4) by Kr+ line at 676.44 nm, de-exciting into transitions to X2Sigma+ (v = 0-6). Deperturbed constants for A2Pi and B2Sigma+ states and A approximately B interaction parameter are calculated from the numerical treatment of D2Sigma+ (v = 0, 1) --> A2Pi (v = 0-3) approximately B2Sigma+ (v = 0-3) transitions. Rotational constants for D2Sigma+ (v = 0, 1) are obtained for the first time. The wavenumbers of some 670 fluorescence lines are cataloged. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.     

The Rotational Spectrum of SO(2) and the Determination of the Hyperfine Constants and Nuclear Magnetic Shielding Tensors of (33)SO(2) and SO(17)O

Rotational analyses of the B(2)Sigma(+)(u) --> X(2)Sigma(+)(g) system of the (14)N(+)(2) molecule have been extended to include the vibrational levels up to v' = 4. Spectral data from 20 bands obtained from high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometry of a hollow-cathode and a Pointolite lamp were included in the analysis. A global deperturbation yielded molecular parameters of the highly perturbed B(2)Sigma state and interaction parameters A(2)Pi(u) approximately B(2)Sigma(u) with a standard deviation of 0.011 cm(-1). Rotational term values of the B(2)Sigma(+) state were also determined. New perturbations in the B(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) level have been observed at N approximately 85 and N approximately 96.

High-Resolution Study of the BaI A(2)Pi Electronic State

Near-infrared and visible spectra of the A(2)Pi-X(2)Sigma(+), C(2)Pi(1/2)-A(2)Pi(1/2), C(2)Pi(1/2)-B(2)Sigma(+), and C(2)Pi(1/2)-X(2)Sigma(+) band systems of the BaI molecule were recorded by using Fourier transform spectroscopy (FTS). The spectra were produced from the chemiluminescent reaction Ba + I(2) and also by using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) technique in which the laser sources were a Ti:sapphire single-mode laser, a dye single-mode laser, and a Kr(+) multimode ion laser.

The laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectrum of the B(3)Pi(0(+))(u)-X(1)Sigma(+)(g) system of Br(2) was recorded by Fourier transform spectroscopy (FTS). The LIF spectra were obtained by using continuous-wave dye laser excitation in the spectral region 16 800-18 000 cm(-1). About 1800 rotationally resolved lines were recorded in 96 fluorescence progressions, originating from the 10 相似文献   

The Electric Dipole Moment of the B(1)Pi State of ZrO

A laser ablation source combined with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer has been constructed. The static electric field in the mass spectrometer gives rise to a first-order Stark effect splitting from which the permanent electric dipole moment of the B(1)Pi state (v = 0) of (90)ZrO is determined and found to be 3.43 +/- 0.07 D. The X(1)Sigma and B(1)Pi states are further investigated and comparisons with the results from ab initio calculations are made. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Submillimeter-Wave Spectroscopy of CO in the a(3)Pi State

Submillimeter-wave absorption spectrum of CO in electronically excited a(3)Pi state was observed in the 540-830 GHz region by using a phase-locked BWO spectrometer. New rotational transitions up to J = 9-8 in the vibrational excited states up to v = 5 were analyzed accompanied with previous observations in the RF and millimeter-wave regions. A multivibrational states fit among a' (3)Sigma(+) (v = 0-3) and a(3)Pi (v = 0-7) states was performed in order to analyze overall perturbation between the a(3)Pi and a' (3)Sigma(+) states. As a result, the deperturbed rotational parameters were derived precisely to improve the RKR potential. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Analysis of the 1-v" Progression of the 3A Band System (c(3)Pi-a(3)Pi) in the (13)C(16)O Molecule Spectrum

The 1-0, 1-1, and 1-2 bands of the 3A system of (13)CO (c(3)Pi-a(3)Pi) have been recorded for the first time, in the form of discharge emission spectra photographed at high resolution. Preliminary rotational analysis suggests that the v = 1 level of the c(3)Pi state is perturbed in a fashion similar to the v = 0 level, previously observed by Dabrowski et al. (1987. I. Dabrowski, M. Vervolet, and D. C. Wang, Can. J. Phys. 65, 1171-1177). Rotational combination differences from the 1720 measured lines have been used to obtain rotational constants for the v = 0-2 levels of the a(3)Pi state, using the Hamiltonian of Brown et al. (1979. J. M. Brown, E. A. Calbourn, J. K. G. Watson, and F. D. Wayne, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 74, 294-318). and the least squares formalism of Curl and Dane (1988. J. Mol. Spectrosc. 128, 406-412), as modified by Watson (1989. J. Mol. Spectrosc. 138, 302-308). Term values for the c(3)Pi, v = 1 level have then been obtained from the line frequencies, and a set of effective rotational constants for the c(3)Pi (v = 1) level of (13)CO has been derived.

Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Electronic States and Spectra of TeH and TeLi

Gas-phase emission spectra of the hitherto unknown free radical TeLi have been measured in the NIR range with a Fourier-transform spectrometer. The emissions were observed from a fast flow system in which tellurium vapor in argon carrier gas was passed through a microwave discharge and mixed with lithium vapor in an observation tube. Two systems of blue-degraded bands were measured at high spectral resolution in the ranges 8000-9000 and 5700-6700 cm(-1) and vibrational and rotational analyses were performed. In order to aid in the analysis of the experimental data, a series of relativistic configuration interaction calculations has been carried out to obtain potential curves for the low-lying states of TeLi and the isovalent TeH and also electric dipole transition moments connecting them. As in the TeH system, the ground state of TeLi is found to be X(2)Pi(i), but with a remarkably smaller spin-orbit splitting. The TeLi calculations indicate a strongly bound A(2)Sigma(+) state, while in TeH the analogous state is computed to lie significantly higher at approximately 32 000 cm(-1), and it is strongly predissociated. Based on the theoretical analysis, the observed TeLi band systems are assigned to the transitions A(2)Sigma(+)(A1/2)-->X(1)(2)Pi(3/2)(X(1)3/2) and A(2)Sigma(+)(A1/2)-->X(2)(2)Pi(1/2)(X(2)1/2). Analysis of the spectra has yielded the molecular constants (in cm(-1)) X(1)(2)Pi(3/2):omega(e)=457.49(3), omega(e)x(e)=2.482(9), B(0)=0.408908(8); X(2)(2)Pi(1/2): T(e)=2353.44(3), omega(e)=456.28(4), omega(e)x(e)=2.635(8), B(0)=0.414954(8), p(0)=1.00637(4); A(2)Sigma(+): T(e)=8574.64(2), omega(e)=437.81(3), omega(e)x(e)=2.581(8), B(0)=0.423903(8), p(0)=-0.19915(2), where the numbers in parentheses are the standard deviations of the parameters. Comparison of the isovalent TeLi and TeH systems emphasizes that the difference in bonding character (ionic in TeLi vs covalent in TeH) is responsible for qualitative differences in the electronic spectra of these two molecules.

The Rotational Analysis of the A(2)Pi(r)-X(2)Sigma(+) Band System of MgBr

The A(2)Pi(r)-X(2)Sigma(+) emission spectrum of the magnesium monobromide radical, MgBr, has been recorded with a Fourier transform spectrometer modified to record double-sided interferograms. The emission spectra of the Deltav = -2, -1, 0, +1 bands were generated in a microwave discharge of a mixture of argon and vaporized MgBr(2). The Deltav = 0 and -1 bands were rotationally resolved, but the F(2) spin component (A(2)Pi(3/2)) in the (1, 1), (1, 2) and vibrational bands with v' > 1 were missing in our spectra because of a strong predissociation in the A state. The molecular constants in both electronic states were determined for the two bromine isotopomers. The r(0) bond length in the A state is about 2.327 ?, which is about 0.02 ? shorter than in the ground state. Franck-Condon factors were calculated from the Rydberg-Klein-Rees potentials, and they reproduce the observed relative intensities of the bandheads. An upper limit for the dissociation energy (D(0)(0)) was obtained as 26 268.4 cm(-1), based on the absence of the energy level with v = 1, A(2)Pi(3/2), J = 1.5 in our spectrum.

Near-Infrared Laser Spectroscopy of TiS: The b(1)Pi-X(3)Delta Transition

Laser-induced fluorescence spectrum of TiS in the 769-863 nm region has been recorded and analyzed. The TiS molecule was produced using the technique of laser vaporization/reaction with supersonic cooling. Twenty-one weak subbands have been assigned as being due to b(1)Pi-X(3)Delta, B(3)Pi(0)-X(3)Delta(1), and C(3)Delta-X(3)Delta transitions. Strong evidence shows that the b(1)Pi state is responsible for perturbing the v = 0, 1, and 2 levels of the C(3)Delta(1) subband. The molecular constants of the b(1)Pi state have been determined as follows: T(e) = 10 589.47 cm(-1), omega(e) = 542.14 cm(-1), omega(e)x(e) = 3.16 cm(-1), B(e) = 0.19568 cm(-1), and alpha(e) = 0.00085 cm(-1). The spin-orbit interaction between the b(1)Pi (v = 2 and 3) and C(3)Delta (v = 1 and 2) levels is discussed in terms of configuration interaction occurring between the b(1)Pi from the 11varsigma(1) 5pi(1) configuration and the (1)Pi from the 5pi(1) 1delta(1) configuration, and the C(3)Delta state from 12varsigma(1) 1delta(1) configuration.

A Reinvestigation of the c(3)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) (0-0) Absorption Band of Carbon Monoxide

The forbidden c(3)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) (0-0) absorption band of carbon monoxide has been reinvestigated under different pressure conditions using the 10.7-m VUV spectrograph at Meudon. Overlap with the allowed C(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) (0-0) band at lower transition energy has been taken into account. We have identified a new rotational branch corresponding to an S-type branch and extended the analysis to both higher and lower J. An analysis of the band structure and the low J transition lines suggests that the band gains its intensity predominantly as a result of an interaction of the c(3)Pi state with a (1)Sigma(+) state, most likely the C(1)Sigma(+) (v = 0) state. Molecular constants have been obtained for the c(3)Pi state that are in reasonable agreement with those previously published. The apparently anomalous small value for the centrifugal distortion constant is explained by a homogeneous perturbation with the k(3)Pi valence state. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

High-Resolution Fourier Transform Emission Spectroscopy of the B(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0)-X(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) Transition of the PN(+) Ion

Ultraviolet emission spectrum of the B(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0)-X(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) transition of the PN(+) ion has been observed at a resolution of 0.05 cm(-1) by a Fourier transform spectrometer. The rotational analysis led to a great improvement of rotational constants in the B(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) and X(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) states as well as to the first determination of centrifugal distortion constants for both levels and spin-rotation interaction constant in the X(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) state. Rotational perturbation in the B(2)Sigma(+) (v = 0) state was observed. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Dynamical Auger emission induced by multistate vibronic coupling in the core-excited states of the BCl3 molecule

The Auger emission following the resonant excitation of the BCl3 molecule has been investigated using monochromatized synchrotron radiation. The B 1s excitation to the unoccupied Anti-bonding 4e(') orbital enhances the shoulder structure in the low kinetic energy side of the photoemission from the 2e(') valence bonding orbital. Based on a series of quantum mechanical calculations, this shoulder structure is interpreted as the dynamical Auger emission which reflects the B-Cl stretching nuclear motion and appears as a result of the purely multistate vibronic coupling effect among the Jahn-Teller split B 1s(-1)4e(') E' states and the closely lying B 1s(-1)3a(')(1) A'1 state.

Fourier Transform Infrared Emission Spectroscopy of SeH

The infrared vibration-rotation bands of SeH have been measured in the X(2)Pi ground state using a Fourier transform spectrometer. The bands were observed in a microwave discharge of a mixture of H(2) and Se in the presence of He. The rotational structure of the 1-0, 2-1, 3-2 bands of the X(2)Pi(3/2) spin component and the 1-0 band of X(2)Pi(1/2) spin component has been observed in the 1800-2600 cm(-1) region. The principal ground state molecular constants obtained are omega(e) = 2421.7153(234) cm(-1), omega(e)x(e) = 44.6012(110) cm(-1), omega(e)y(e) = 0.20697(236) cm(-1), B(e) = 7.899187(696) cm(-1), alpha(e) = 0.220749(399) cm(-1), and r(e) = 1.464319(64) ?. This work is the first determination of the equilibrium molecular constants of the X(2)Pi state of SeH. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
