Line Positions and Intensities of the ν1+ ν2+ 3ν3, ν2+ 4ν3, and 3ν1+ 2ν2Bands of Ozone

Using a Fourier transform spectrometer, we have recorded the spectra of ozone in the region of 4600 cm⁻¹, with a resolution of 0.008 cm⁻¹. The strongest absorption in this region is due to the ν₁+ ν₂+ 3ν₃band which is in Coriolis interaction with the ν₂+ 4ν₃band. We have been able to assign more than 1700 transitions for these two bands. To correctly reproduce the calculation of energy levels, it has been necessary to introduce the (320) state which strongly perturbs the (113) and (014) states through Coriolis- and Fermi-type resonances. Seventy transitions of the 3ν₁+ 2ν₂band have also been observed. The final fit on 926 energy levels withJ_max= 50 andK_max= 16 gives RMS = 3.1 × 10⁻³cm⁻¹and provides a satisfactory agreement of calculated and observed upper levels for most of the transitions. The following values for band centers are derived: ν₀(ν₁+ ν₂+ 3ν₃) = 4658.950 cm⁻¹, ν₀(3ν₁+ 2ν₂) = 4643.821 cm⁻¹, and ν₀(ν₂+ 4ν₃) = 4632.888 cm⁻¹. Line intensities have been measured and fitted, leading to the determination of transition moment parameters for the two bands ν₁+ ν₂+ 3ν₃and ν₂+ 4ν₃. Using these parameters we have obtained the following estimations for the integrated band intensities,S_V(ν₁+ ν₂+ 3ν₃) = 8.84 × 10⁻²²,S_V(ν₂+ 4ν₃) = 1.70 × 10⁻²², andS_V(3ν₁+ 2ν₂) = 0.49 × 10⁻²²cm⁻¹/molecule cm⁻²at 296 K, which correspond to a cutoff of 10⁻²⁶cm⁻¹/molecule cm⁻².     

Absorption spectra of CO2 and CO2 near 1.05 μm

The absolute line intensities of the Fermi triad 2003i-00001 (i = 1, 2, 3) of ¹²C¹⁶O₂ and ¹³C¹⁶O₂ isotopic species of carbon dioxide were retrieved from Fourier-transform spectra recorded at Doppler limited resolution in the region 9200-9700 cm⁻¹. The accuracy of the line intensity determination is estimated to be better than 15% for most lines. The vibrational transition dipole moments squared and Herman-Wallis coefficients have been determined. The global fittings of the observed line intensities within the framework of the effective operators method have been performed. The fitting results reproduce the data within experimental uncertainty.     

High-Resolution Infrared Spectra of the ν2, ν3, ν4, and 2ν3 Bands of SO3

New measurements are reported for the infrared spectrum of sulfur trioxide, ³²S¹⁶O₃, with resolutions ranging from 0.0015 cm⁻¹ to 0.0025 cm⁻¹. Rovibrational constants have been measured for the fundamentals ν₂, ν₃, and ν₄ and the overtone band 2ν₃. Comparisons are made with the earlier high-resolution measurements on SO₃, and the high correlation among some of the constants related to the Coriolis coupling of the ν₂ and ν₄ levels is discussed in order to understand the areas of disagreement with the earlier work. Splittings of some of the levels are observed and the splitting constant for K=3 of the ground state is determined for the first time. Other observed splittings include the K=1 levels of 2ν₃ (l=2), the K=2 levels of ν₃ and ν₄, and the K=3 levels of ν₂. The analysis shows that there are level crossings between the l=0 and l=2 states of 2ν₃ that allow one to determine the separation of the subband centers for these two states even though access to the l=0 state from the ground state is electric-dipole forbidden. This is a generalized phenomenon that should be found for many other molecules with the same symmetry. The l-type resonance constant, q₃, that causes the splitting of the l₃=±1, k=±1 levels of ν₃ also couples the l₃=0 and 2 states of 2ν₃.     

Analysis of the ν1 + ν2 + ν3 band of O3

The high resolution spectrum of the ν₁ + ν₂ + ν₃ band of O₃ in the 2800-cm⁻¹ region has been analyzed using Watson's Hamiltonian. The resulting Hamiltonian constants and previously published line intensities have been used to generate a listing of line assignments, positions, absolute intensities, and ground state energies. These should be useful for atmospheric studies.     

Line positions and intensities for the ν1 + ν2 and ν2 + ν3 bands of H2O

The intensities of about 90 lines of the ν₁ + ν₂ and ν₂ + ν₃ bands of H₂¹⁸O have been measured using a Fourier transform spectrum of natural water vapor. The constants involved in the rotational expansion of the transformed transition moment operators corresponding to these bands have been determined through a fit of these line intensities. The constants obtained are used to compute the whole spectrum of the ν₁ + ν₂ and ν₂ + ν₃ bands of H₂¹⁸O providing reliable line positions and intensities. For lines involving perturbed levels a comparison is given with the results obtained for H₂¹⁶O and it is shown that the results for one isotopic species cannot be transferred directly to another one.     

Line Intensities in the ν1, ν3, and 2ν2 Bands of H2Se

Using a high-resolution Fourier transform spectrum of hydrogen selenide in natural abundance, about 600 intensities of lines belonging to the ν₁, ν₃, and 2ν₂ bands of H₂⁸⁰Se were measured. A least-squares fit of these intensities was performed, allowing determination of the vibrational transition moments of these bands and their rotational corrections. Finally, the first derivatives of the dipole moment with respect to the normal coordinates q₁ and q₃ were found to be ∂μ_χ/∂q₁ = (−0.5938 ± 0.010) × 10⁻¹ and ∂μ_z/∂q₃ = (0.5683 ± 0.010) × 10⁻¹ Debye, respectively.     

The FT-IR Spectrum of HCNO: The ν1, ν2, 2ν3, and ν2 + ν3 Band Systems

The infrared spectrum of HC¹⁵NO an isotopically substituted species of fulminic acid, has been measured in the range 1900-3600 cm⁻¹ at a resolution of 0.003 cm⁻¹ with a Bruker IFS 120 HR interferometer. More than 100 subbands have been assigned. Power series coefficients for these transitions are given. A Coriolis resonance between the levels 01002 (l = 0e) and 01010 (l = 1e) allows normally "forbidden" transitions to occur, some of which were observed and assigned. We correlate transition intensities and energies of the resonance system. Variations in the manifold of nν₅ states with excitation of other modes are compared.     

High-Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy of Methyl Isocyanide: The ν3, ν6, and ν7 + ν8 Bands

The vibration-rotation spectrum of methyl isocyanide (CH₃NC) has been recorded with the aid of a high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer in the region 1370 to 1560 cm⁻¹ containing the perpendicular band of the fundamental vibration ν₆ (species E), the weaker parallel band of the ν₃ (A₁) fundamental, and the perpendicular combination band ν₇ + ν₈ (E) enhanced by Fermi resonance with ν₆. Sixteen hundred seventy well-resolved lines were assigned to 15 subbands of ν₆, 6 subbands of ν₃, and 3 subbands of ν⁻₇ + ν⁻₈. A strong x, y-Coriolis resonance between ν₃ and ν₆ and Fermi resonance between ν^±₆ and the E component ν₇ + ν₈, as well as between ν₃ and the A_1,2 components ν^±₇ + ν₈, greatly affects the spectrum. Additional weaker anharmonic interaction of ν₆ with the ν₄ + 2ν²₈ combination and higher-order rotational interactions connecting the various states were also detected in the spectrum. All of these interactions have been incorporated into a 9 × 9 Hamiltonian matrix used for modeling the upper states of the observed transitions. A set of spectroscopic constants is reported for the upper states of the bands ν₃, ν₆, and ν₇ + ν₈ and for ν₄ + 2ν²₈ which reproduces the observed lines with an overall standard deviation of 0.0012 cm⁻¹.

CO2 line intensity measurements around 1.6 μm

Using Fourier transform spectra and a multispectrum fitting procedure, 271 absolute line intensities of ¹²C¹⁶O₂ have been measured around 1.6 μm, for the three cold bands 30014-00001, 30013-00001, and 30012-00001, and for the two hot bands 31113-01101 and 31112-01101, extending from 6035 to 6380 cm⁻¹. Accuracies are on the average 3 and 5% for cold and hot bands, respectively. Vibrational transition dipole moments and Herman-Wallis coefficients are reported for each band. Comparisons are made with previous experimental results and with data available in the HITRAN database and the Carbon Dioxide Spectroscopic Databank (CDSD).     

The ν1 and ν3 Bands of the OOO Isotopomer of Ozone

Using 0.002 cm⁻¹ resolution Fourier transform absorption spectra of an ¹⁷O-enriched ozone sample, an extensive analysis of the ν₃ band together with a partial identification of the ν₁ band of the ¹⁷O¹⁶O¹⁷O isotopomer of ozone has been performed for the first time. As for other C_2v-type ozone isotopomers [J.-M. Flaud and R. Bacis, Spectrochim. Acta, Part A 54, 3–16 (1998)], the (001) rotational levels are involved in a Coriolis-type resonance with the levels of the (100) vibrational state. The experimental rotational levels of the (001) and (100) vibrational states have been satisfactorily reproduced using a Hamiltonian matrix which takes into account the observed rovibrational resonances. In this way precise vibrational energies and rotational and coupling constants were deduced and the following band centers ν₀(ν₃) = 1030.0946 cm⁻¹ and ν₀(ν₁) = 1086.7490 cm⁻¹ were obtained for the ν₃ and ν₁ bands, respectively.

Analysis of the Coriolis-coupled band system of ν5, ν2, and 2ν3 of methyl-d3 iodide

The Coriolis-coupled band system of ν₅, ν₂, and 2ν₃ of CD₃I was analyzed by making use of all of the experimental data now available. These data included the high-resolution infrared spectra, microwave spectra, and laser Stark spectra. The analysis gave values, more precise than before, of the spectroscopic constants for ν₅, ν₂, and 2ν₃ and the interaction constants. The determination of the rotational constant A for 2ν₃ gave a value for , with which all of the α^A constants for CD₃I have been completed. These α^A values were incorporated with the known value of A₆ to give a value for A₀.     

The ν2, ν5 Raman band system of CH3F

The anisotropic and isotropic components of the ν₂, ν₅ rotation-vibrational Raman bands of ¹³CH₃F were obtained separately. The two upper states are coupled by a strong second-order Coriolis resonance. The anisotropic spectrum was analyzed by means of a program system due to R. Escribano. A contour simulation and a least-squares fit of 233 assigned transitions yielded values for ν₅, ΔA₅, ΔA₂, and Aζ_{5a, 5b^(z)}. The ¹³C shifts of ν₂ and ν₅ were obtained from the isotropic spectrum.     

A High-Resolution Fourier Transform Infrared Study of the ν3, ν4, and ν5 Bands of Deuterated Formyl Chloride (DCOCl)

High-resolution infrared spectra of the low-lying ν₃, ν₄, and ν₅ fundamentals of the transient molecule DCOCl are reported. These type-A/B hybrid bands have been analyzed in detail, providing extensive rotational assignments for the DCO³⁵Cl and DCO³⁷Cl isotopomers. The ground state constants have been refined by a simultaneous fit of the available microwave data and FTIR combination differences from the three bands. The excited state constants have been determined by fitting assignments over a wide range of J and K_a values. A small perturbation was found at high K_a values in the ν₄ band and determined to be due to a ΔK_a = −2 interaction with the rotational levels of the 6¹ vibrational state.     

High-resolution FTIR spectroscopy of HNSO—Analysis of the highly perturbed ν4, ν6 and 2ν5 bands

We report a rovibrational analysis of the ν₄ and ν₆ fundamentals and the 2ν₅ overtone of HNSO from high-resolution Fourier transform infrared spectra. The ν₆ band (out-of-plane bend) centred at 757.5 cm⁻¹ is c-type. The ν₄ band (HNS bend) centred at 905.9 cm⁻¹ is predominantly a-type with a very weak b-type component (). Numerous global perturbations and localized avoided crossings affecting the v₄ = 1 rotational levels were successfully treated by inclusion of Fermi and c-axis Coriolis resonance terms between v₄ = 1 and v₅ = 2, and a b-axis Coriolis resonance term between v₄ = 1 and v₆ = 1. The latter term gives rise to an avoided crossing with an extraordinary ΔK_a = 5 selection rule. The Fermi resonance between v₄ = 1 and v₅ = 2 gives rise to strong mixing of their rotational wavefunctions in the vicinity of K_a = 18. The resultant borrowing of intensity made it possible for 2ν₅ transitions in the range K_a = 16–19 to be assigned and included in a global rovibrational treatment of all three band systems.     

High‐resolution stimulated Raman spectroscopy and analysis of the ν1, 2ν1–ν1, ν2, 2ν2, and 3ν2–ν2 bands of CF4

The spectra of the ν₁, 2ν₁–ν₁, ν₂, 2ν₂, and 3ν₂–ν₂ bands of CF₄ were obtained with a quasi‐continuous wave stimulated Raman spectrometer. These five bands were studied at a temperature of 135 and 300 K (for the hot bands). The spectrum of ν₁ was obtained at a sample pressure of 2 mbar. For the spectra of the other regions, which are much weaker, higher pressures were used. The analysis has been performed thanks to the xtds and spview softwares developed in Dijon for such highly symmetric molecules. Combining the present results with a previous infrared study, we could determine a very accurate value for the C–F equilibrium bond length, i.e. r_e = 1.31588(6) Å.

Line strengths of CO2: 4550-7000 cm

Line positions and strengths of ¹²C¹⁶O₂ were measured between 4550 and 7000 cm⁻¹ using near infrared absorption spectra recorded at 0.01-0.013 cm⁻¹ resolution with the McMath-Pierce Fourier transform spectrometer located at the National Solar Observatory at Kitt Peak, Arizona. These were retrieved from 42 laboratory spectra obtained at room temperature with five absorption cells having various optical path lengths (from 0.1 to 409 m) filled with natural and enriched samples of CO₂ at pressures ranging from 2 to 581 Torr. In all, band strengths and Herman-Wallis-like F-factor coefficients were determined for 58 vibration-rotation bands from the least-squares fits of over 2100 unblended line strengths; strengths of 34 of these bands had not been previously reported. Band strengths in natural abundance generally ranged from 3.30 × 10⁻²⁰ to 2.8 × 10⁻²⁵ cm⁻¹/molecule cm⁻² at 296 K. It was found that the high J transitions (J′ ? 61) of the 20012 ← 00001 band centered at 4977.8347 cm⁻¹ are perturbed, affecting both measured positions and strengths. Two other interacting bands, 21113e ← 01101e and 40002e ← 01101e, were also analyzed using degenerate perturbation theory. Comparisons with corresponding values from the literature indicate that absolute accuracies better than 1% and precisions of 0.5% were achieved for the strongest bands.     

Absolute line intensities of CO2 in the 3090-3920 cm region

Absolute line intensities of ¹³C¹⁶O₂ were retrieved from high-resolution Fourier transform spectra recorded in the region 3090-3920 cm⁻¹. The uncertainty of the line intensity determination is estimated to be between 3 and 5% for the strong lines. The global fittings of the observed line intensities within the framework of the effective operators approach have been performed, reaching the experimental accuracy. A comparison of newly measured line intensities with those found in the HITRAN database is presented.
