Rotational analysis of the a3Π-X1Σ+ bands of GaD

A new method of producing strong and clean emission spectra of the gallium hydride/deuteride molecule has been developed. Five bands belonging to the gallium deuteride molecule (GaD) have been photographed under high resolution. The rotational analyses of the bands lying at 5669.14 Å (0-0) and 5675.10 Å (1-1) in the a³Π₁-X¹Σ⁺ transition, 5761.0 Å (0-0) and 5766.20 Å (1-1) in the a³Π_0⁺-X¹Σ⁺ transition, and 5760.85 Å (0-0) in the a³Π_0⁻-X¹Σ⁺ transition have been performed. Accurate rotational constants (B, D) have been determined for the X¹Σ⁺, a³Π_0^± and a³Π_1^± states. The Λ doubling in the a³Π₀ (v = 0) and a³Π₁ (v = 0 and 1) states are obtained.     

Rotational Analysis of the 1–4 Band of the B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+ System of 14C16O+

ABSTRACT

High-resolution emission spectrum of the 1–4 band of the B ²Σ⁺–X ²Σ⁺ transition of ¹⁴C¹⁶O⁺ was observed for the first time by conventional emission spectroscopy. The band spectrum was excited in a water-cooled Geissler lamp filled with commercial gaseous carbon monoxide enriched in about 80% of the radiocarbon ¹⁴C. A rotational analysis has been carried out and obtained molecular constants have been merged with previously published data for the B ²Σ⁺–A ²Π_i and A ²Π_i–X ²Σ⁺ transitions. The principal equilibrium constants for the ground X ²Σ⁺ state obtained from this work are ω_e = 2121.7726(98), ω_e x _e = 13.9055(27), B _e = 1.815290(30), α_e = 1.6594(33) × 10^?2, and γ_e = ? 0.377(73) × 10^?4 cm^?1. Also, presently known experimental equilibrium molecular constants of the X ²Σ⁺ states of the CO⁺ isotopic molecules are summarized and isotopic dependence of the B _e and ω _e constants is discussed.     

New analysis of the Douglas-Herzberg system (A1Π- X1Σ+) in the CH+ ion radical

Three bands of the A¹Π- X¹Σ⁺ system in the ¹²CH⁺ ion radical have been rephotographed under high resolution as an emission spectra using a Geissler-type discharge tube. The conventional technique of spectroscopy has been implemented. Using the Th lines as a standards, as well as an interferometric comparator equipped with a photoelectric scanning device, the 0-0 , 0-1 and 2-1 bands have been reanalyzed. By means of much longer bands (J_max = 17 in the Q(J) branch of the 0-0 band; J_max = 16 in the R(J) branch of the 0-1 band; J_max = 14 in the P(J) and Q(J) branches of the 2-1 band), than have been observed so far, as well as the merged calculations, using another five bands given by Carrington et al. [A. Carrington, D.A. Ramsay, Phys. Scripta 25, 272 (1982)] additionally, more accurate molecular constants for the X¹Σ⁺ state, the improved reduced band system origin T_e = 24118.726 (14) cm^-1 as well as for the first time the equilibrium molecular constants with their one standard deviation for the A¹Π state in the CH⁺ molecule have been computed: ω_e'=1864.402(22), ω_ex_e'=115.832(14), ω_ey_e'= 2.6301(24), B_e'=11.88677(72), α_e'= 0.9163(18), γ_e'= -2.29(12)×10^-2, ε_e'= 4.95(20)×10^-3, D_e'=1.92960(31)×10^-3, β_e'= 1.0733(50)×10^-4, δ_e'= -1.312(16)×10^-5, , α_qe'= -3.14(16)×10^-3, and q_De'= -2.20(14)×10^-5 cm^-1. Only in our research the addition to the zero-point energy Y'₀₀=-1.9430 cm^-1 and cm^-1 have been calculated. The equilibrium bond lengths of r'_e=1.235053(37) ? and ? for the A¹Π and X¹Σ⁺ states, respectively have been computed. Full quantum-mechanics characteristic of the A-X bands system in the ¹²CH⁺ molecule, i.e. RKR turning points, the Franck-Condon factors and r-centroids have been obtained. Dissociation energies D_e^{X1 Σ+}=(38470± 3503) cm^-1 and D_e^{A1 Π}= (14415 ±3509) cm^-1 for the molecule under consideration have been estimated.

Fourier spectroscopy of the Asundi system (a′3Σ+-a3Π) of 13C16O

The Asundi system (a′³Σ⁺-a³Π) of ¹³C¹⁶O has been studied between 3500 and 12 000 cm⁻¹ by high-resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy. The 10 bands, 0-0, 0−1, 1−0, 1−1, 1−2, 2−0, 2−1, 3−0, 4−0, and 4−2, were analyzed taking into account the strong perturbations appearing in the a′³Σ⁺ (v = 0,…,4) levels. Accurate perturbation parameters were obtained for all interacting states.     

Rotational Analysis of the B2Σ+-X2Σ+ Bands of 12C18O+

The emission spectrum of the B²Σ⁺-X²Σ⁺ (First Negative) system of the molecular ion ¹²C¹⁸O⁺ have been photographed at a resolution sufficient to observe the spin splitting of the lines with N > 18. Four bands, 0-1, 0-3, 1-4 and 2-5, have been rotationally analyzed and the molecular constants of the B²Σ⁺ , v = 0,1, 2 and X²Σ⁺ , v =1, 3, 4, 5 have been obtained.     

Analysis of the bands of the B2Σ+-X2Σ+ transition in 12C16O+ and 13C16O+

The First Negative bands of ¹²C¹⁶O⁺ and ¹³C¹⁶O⁺, in the spectral region 40 000–46 000 cm⁻¹, have been photographed at a resolution sufficient to resolve the spin-doubled components. These data for ¹²C¹⁶O⁺, along with previously reported data of the same transitions, as well as microwave transitions of ¹²C¹⁶O⁺ in the ground state, have been explicitly included in a least-squares fit to determine the most precise set of molecular constants to date for the B²Σ⁺ and X²Σ⁺ states of ¹²C¹⁶O⁺. Furthermore, we report a rotational analysis of the First Negative bands of ¹³C¹⁶O⁺ for the first time. Several molecular constants characterizing ¹³C¹⁶O⁺ in the B²Σ⁺ and the X²Σ⁺ states, including spin-doubling parameters, have been determined.     

Rotational analysis of the c3Πu–b3Πg system of P2

The rotationally resolved spectra of the c³Π_u–b³Π_g system of P₂ in the 16620–17860 cm^?1 region is reanalyzed here to obtain more assignments of the rotational lines and more accurate molecular constants. Approximately 500 spectral lines were assigned to six subbands: the Ω=0, 1 and 2 components of the (2, 3) band, the Ω=0 and 2 components of the (1, 3) band and the Ω=2 component of the (1, 2) band. Because of perturbations in the c³Π_u (υ=2) state, the Λ-doubling in the ³Π₂–³Π₂ subband of the (2, 3) band was resolved. By the weighted nonlinear least-squares fitting using two types of effective Hamiltonians, more accurate molecular constants for the υ′=1 and 2 levels in the c³Π_u state and for the υ″=2 and 3 levels in the b³Π_g state of P₂ were derived.     

The Ångström (B1Σ+-A1Π) band system of 13C18O

The Ångström (B¹Σ⁺-A¹Π) band system of the ¹³C¹⁸O molecule, excited in a hollow-cathode discharge tube, has been observed in the region 4100–6500Å. All the eight bands of the system, viz., 1-0, 1-1, 0-0, 0–1, 0–2, 0–3, 0–4, and 0–5 were photographed under high resolution and their rotational analyses, except for the apparently complex 0-0 band, have been carried out. Vibrational constants of the B and A states have been obtained from the band origin data. The derived molecular constants (in cm^?1, except r_e in Å) of the B-A system of¹³C¹⁸O are

Rotational band contours in the 5000 Å 1 B 1g -1 Ag electronic system of p-benzoquinone     

J. Christoffersen  J.M. Hollas 《Molecular physics》2013,111(6):655-667

Using the technique of computer simulation of rotational band contours the 1–0 band in v ₇, band E, in the 5000 Å ¹ B _1g -¹ A_g system of p-benzoquinone has been rotationally analysed. It is a type A band and the excited state rotational constants are:

The excited state inertial defect determined from these constants is -0·8 ± 0·2 uÅ ². This value is almost certainly due not to non-planarity of the excited state but to a Coriolis interaction between v ₇ and perhaps the b _1u vibration v ₁₃. Such an interaction, if it were weak, would affect only the A′ rotational constant.

Previous assignments [2] of other type A bands and type B bands in the spectrum are reviewed where possible with the new evidence of the computed contours and the assignments remain largely unaltered.

A partial analysis of rotational structure in the 2710 Å system of p-fluorotoluene     

T. Cvitaš  J.M. Hollas 《Molecular physics》2013,111(4):645-654

The region of the 0-0 band of the 2710 Å system of p-fluorotoluene has been photographed at high resolution.

The rotational contour of the 0-0 band has been interpreted using two approximations in computed contours: (i) treating the molecule as a symmetric top with free internal rotation, and (ii) treating it as a rigid asymmetric top. The first approximation has enabled an estimate of AT' to be made where AT is the rotational constant of the methyl group about the top axis: the second approximation resulted in valves of AF', B' and C', where AF is the A rotational constant of the ring, although to a rather lower accuracy than has been the case in other substituted benzenes.

Interpretation of the rotational constants shows that in the excited state the methyl group has closed up a little: two extreme interpretations of the constant AT' result in either a decrease in the HCH angles of 1·2±0·7° or a decrease in the C-H bond-lengths of 0·009 ± 0·005 Å. The values of AF', B' and C' indicate that the C-CH₃ bond contracts by about 0·03 Å. This suggests a considerable increase in hyperconjugation in the excited state of p-fluorotoluene compared to the ground state.

The 0-0 band was found to be a type B band implying a polarization of the electronic transition moment along the short in-plane axis. The origin of the band was found to be at 36 859·6±0·3 cm^-1.

Rotational analysis of weak (4, 6) hot band in the comet-tail (AΠ_i-XΣ) system of the CO     

Xu-ping Shao  Ling Wu 《Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer》2011,112(6):1005-137

The ro-vibrational spectrum of the weak (4, 6) hot band in the comet-tail (A²Π_i-X²Σ⁺) system of CO⁺ is observed by employing optical heterodyne and magnetic rotation enhanced velocity modulation spectroscopy. One hundred and twenty-four spectral lines are assigned to this band; thus, precise molecular constants of the levels involved are obtained from a weighted nonlinear least-squares fitting procedure combining with our previous spectrum of the (3, 6) band.

Transition probabilities of the X1Σ+, A1Π, B1Δ, C1Σ+, and D1Π states of the AlO+ cation     

Yanan Feng  Jinfeng Sun 《Molecular physics》2020,118(4)

ABSTRACT

This study computes the potential energy curves of the X¹Σ⁺, A¹Π, B¹Δ, C¹Σ⁺, and D¹Π states of AlO⁺ cation and the transition dipole moments between them. The orders of the rotationless radiative lifetimes are 10–100?μs for the A¹Π state, 1–1000?ms for the B¹Δ state, 10?ns for the first well and 100?ns for the second well of the C¹Σ⁺ state, and 1?μs for the D¹Π state. Emissions of the B¹Δ–A¹Π and D¹Π–C¹Σ⁺ systems are so weak that they are hardly measured via spectroscopy, the emissions of the C¹Σ⁺–X¹Σ⁺, C¹Σ⁺–A¹Π, and D¹Π–X¹Σ⁺ systems are so strong that they can be detected readily, and emissions of the A¹Π–X¹Σ⁺ and D¹Π–A¹Π systems can be observed through spectroscopy only by a significant effort. There is a strong great similarity between spontaneous emissions of the A¹Π–X¹Σ⁺ system of the AlO⁺ cation and the A²Π–X²Σ⁺ system of the AlO radical. The emissions of the A²Π–X²Σ⁺ system of the AlO radical have been measured in outer space Therefore, it is highly possible that the emissions of the A¹Π–X¹Σ⁺ system of the AlO⁺ cation can be detected in the astrophysical media.

Abstract

Three new bands of the B ²Σ⁺–X ²Σ⁺ system of ¹²C¹⁷O⁺ have been investigated using conventional spectroscopic techniques. The spectra were observed in a graphite hollow‐cathode lamp by discharging molecular oxygen (enriched in about 45% of the ¹⁷O₂ isotope) under 1.0 Torr pressure. The rotational analysis of the 2–4, 2–5, and 2–6 bands was performed with the effective Hamiltonian of Brown (Brown et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc. 1979; 74: 294–318). Molecular constants were derived from a merge calculation, including both the current wavenumbers and the spectroscopic data published by the authors previously. The principal equilibrium constants for the ground state of ¹²C¹⁷O⁺ are ω_e=2185.9658(84), ω_e x _e = 14.7674(11), B _e=1.927001(38), α_e=1.8236(22)×10^?2, γ_e=?0.331(28)×10^?4, D _e=6.041(12)×10^?6, β_e=0.100(31)×10^?7 cm^?1, and the equilibrium constants for the excited state are σ_e=45876.499(15), ω_e=1712.201(12), ω_e x _e=27.3528(39), B _e=1.754109(35), α_e=2.8706(57)×10^?2, γ_e = ?1.15(19)×10^?4, D _e=7.491(20)×10^?6, β_e=2.13(12)×10^?7, γ_e = 2.0953(97)×10^?2, and α_γe=?9.46(59)×10^?4 cm^?1, respectively. Rydberg–Klein–Rees potential energy curves were constructed for the B ²Σ⁺ and X ²Σ⁺ states of this molecule, and Franck–Condon factors were calculated for the vibrational bands of the B–X system.
