Stretch-Bender Calculations of the Rovibronic Energies in the Excited, ÃA1, Electronic State of NH2 and of the Near-Resonant High-Lying Levels of the X?B1 State

The extended stretch-bender Hamiltonian, incorporating spin-orbit coupling and overall rotation, has been used to calculate the spin-vibronic structure of the rovibronic energies in the region where the vibronic states of the excited òA₁ electronic state of NH₂ interact with near-resonant high-lying levels of the X?²B₁ state of NH₂. A detailed comparison has been made with the experimental measurements which were made of these rovibronic states, the majority of which are due to Ramsay, Vervloet, and their collaborators. We have shown that, as in our study of the vibronic levels of the X?²B₁ state below the barrier to linearity, in order to fit the variation of the effective vibronic spin-orbit coupling constant over the whole of this energy regime, the effective linear molecule spin-orbit coupling constant, A_SO must be increased from the earlier value of 50 cm⁻¹ of Ch. Jungen, K.-E. J. Hallin, and A. Merer (Mol. Phys.40, 65-94 (1980)) to 61.6 cm⁻¹. The impact of Fermi resonance, in both the òA₁ and X?²B₁ states, on the observed rovibronic structure has been assessed. The pattern of calculated spin-rovibronic levels, including the effects of spin uncoupling, is in good agreement with that measured experimentally.     

Renner-Teller and Spin-Orbit Interactions between the ÃA1 and the X?B1 States of NH2: The Stretch-Bender Approach

The stretch-bender model, developed originally to describe the effects of stretch-bend interactions and Renner-Teller coupling in symmetrical triatomic molecules, has been extended to incorporate the effects of spin-orbit interaction and of overall rotation. A comparison is made between the treatment of spin-orbit interaction and of overall rotation in our model and in the MORBID approach of P. Jensen, M. Brumm, W. P. Kraemer, and P. R. Bunker (J. Mol. Spectrosc.171, 31-57 (1995)).     

Stimulated Emission Pumping Spectroscopy of SiH2: First Observation of the Spin-Orbit Interaction between the X?A1 and the ãB1 States

Stimulated emission pumping spectra of the ùB₁-X?¹A₁ transition of the SiH₂ radical were observed in order to obtain information about the ã³B₁ state through the spin-orbit interaction. The vibrational level structure of the X? state, which is the basis for the present observation of the triplet state, was well described with a polyad structure, in which both the 1ν₁ : 2ν₂ Fermi and the 2ν₁ : 2ν₃ Darling-Dennison anharmonic resonances were considered. In the P=10 polyad, four sets of spin-orbit perturbations were observed for the first time. The triplet state observed at about 9640 cm⁻¹ from the (000) level of the X? state was tentatively assigned as the ã³B₁ (030) level. An analysis of the spin-orbit interaction showed that the interaction energies of the spin-orbit coupling are 0.73-3.13 cm⁻¹. This value is rather smaller than that expected based on the comparison with CH₂. This is considered to be due to poor overlap between the vibrational wave functions in the ã and the X? state.     

A Theoretical Study of MgNC and MgCN in the X?Σ Electronic State

The MgNC radical was the first Mg-containing species to be observed in interstellar space. This fact has stimulated considerable spectroscopic interest in this molecule, and in its isomer MgCN, but nevertheless the only rotationally resolved spectroscopic data presently available for X?²Σ⁺ MgNC comprise the rotational spectrum (K. Kawaguchi et al., 1993, Astrophys. J.406, L39-L42; K. Ishii et al., 1993, Astrophys. J.410, L43-L44; M. A. Anderson and L. M. Ziurys, 1994, Chem. Phys. Lett.231, 164-170; E. Kagi et al., 1996, J. Chem. Phys.104, 1263-1267; E. Kagi and K. Kawaguchi, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 2000, 199, 309-310) together with a few vibronic bands, all originating in the vibronic ground state and belonging to the òΠ←X?²Σ⁺ electronic transition (R. R. Wright and T. A. Miller, 1999, J. Mol. Spectrosc.194, 219-228). For MgCN, only the rotational spectrum in the vibrational ground state is known (M. A. Anderson, T. C. Steimle, and L. M. Ziurys, 1994, Astrophys. J.429, L41-L44). We report here potential energy surfaces calculated by the Averaged Coupled-Pair Functional (ACPF) method with TZ3P+f (Mg), TZ2P+f(N,C) basis sets including core-valence correlation due to the Mg 2s and 2p electrons. The ab initio results are used for determining the standard spectroscopic constants of X?²Σ⁺ MgNC and MgCN. Also, we report variational calculations of the rotation-vibration energies, and variational simulations of the lowest rotation-vibration bands, carried out with the MORBID program system (P. Jensen, 1988, J. Mol. Spectrosc.128, 478-501). We hope that our theoretical results will encourage and facilitate further characterization of X?²Σ⁺ MgNC and MgCN by high-resolution spectroscopy.     

Line shifts in the ν2, 2ν2, and ν4 bands of NH3 perturbed by O2

Pressure-induced line shift coefficients have been measured for more than 200 rovibrational lines of NH₃ perturbed by O₂ at room temperature (T = 295 K) in some branches of the ν₂, 2ν₂, and ν₄ bands. These lines with J values ranging from 1 to 13 are located in the spectral range 800-1800 cm⁻¹. Experiments were made with a high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer. The treatment of vibration-rotation lines includes interference effects caused by the overlapping of lines. The O₂ pressure-induced shift coefficients have been derived from the non-linear least-squares multi-pressure fitting technique. The results illustrate a vibrational dependence of line shifts with vibrational quantum number. Most of the measured shifts are negative in the ν₄ band. They are positive for the ν₂ and 2ν₂ bands. The measured shift coefficients are compared with previous measurements and with those calculated from a semiclassical theory based upon the Robert-Bonamy formalism extended to the case of symmetric top molecule with inversion motion. The predictions are generally in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data. Analyses of measured and predicted results illustrate that these shifts mainly originate from the isotropic part of the intermolecular potential.     

High-resolution study of the ν1/ν5 and 2ν1/ν1+ν5 P-H stretching bands of PH2D

The P-H stretching bands ν₁/ν₅ and 2ν₁/ν₁+ν₅ were recorded using a Bruker 120 HR interferometer with a resolution of 0.0042 and 0.0088 cm⁻¹, respectively, and analyzed. From the fits 33 and 50, respectively, vibrational, rotational, centrifugal distortion, and resonance interaction parameters were obtained. These reproduce 668 and 497 rovibrational energies of the pairs of states ν₁/ν₅ and 2ν₁/ν₁+ν₅ with experimental accuracies, rms=0.00016 and , respectively. “Local mode” behavior of the PH₂ fragment is established and discussed in detail.     

Rotational Analysis of the ÃA1-X?A1 Band System of Yttrium Dicarbide, YC2

The 000-000 and 3¹₀ bands of the 775-nm electronic transition of YC₂(òA₁←X?²A₁) have been studied at high resolution, using the laser-induced fluorescence from a supersonic jet expansion. Three types of experiment have been carried out. First, the complete rotational and hyperfine structures of the two bands were recorded. To measure the small asymmetry splittings in the K=2 levels of the X?²A₁ state, portions of the b-type 3¹₀ band were then recorded in the presence of a weak static electric field. Finally, a number of pure rotational transitions between the K=0 levels of the ground state were recorded by pump/probe microwave optical double resonance. A few small rotational perturbations occur in the upper electronic state but, omitting the perturbed lines, the combined data sets could be modeled using an effective Hamiltonian operator appropriate for the rotation, electron spin, and hyperfine structure of a rigid asymmetric top molecule. The molecule is confirmed as being “T-shaped,” where the Y atom is bonded to the side of a C₂ group; the rotational constants determined are for the òA₁, 3¹ level, A=1.76128, B=0.189949, C=0.170056 cm⁻¹, and for the X?²A₁, v=0 level, A=1.742731, B=0.201947, C=0.181285 cm⁻¹. Allowing for electron orbital corrections to the rotational constants, the geometrical structures are found to be òA₁ state, r (Y-C)=2.2795 Å, r (C-C)=1.2630 Å, ∠C-Y-C=32.17°; X?²A₁ state, r (Y-C)=2.1946 Å, r (C-C)=1.2697 Å, ∠C-Y-C=33.63°. A molecular orbital diagram is given for the states of YC₂ and the interpretation of the electron spin and hyperfine parameters is discussed.     

The 2ν1, 2ν2 and 2ν3 overtones of FClO3

The infrared spectra of the 2ν₁, 2ν₂ and 2ν₃ overtones of perchloryl fluoride, FClO₃, have been recorded at high resolution using monoisotopic pure samples. Four symmetric top species have been investigated: F³⁵Cl¹⁶O₃, F³⁷Cl¹⁶O₃, F³⁵Cl¹⁸O₃ and F³⁷Cl¹⁸O₃. The v_i = 2, i = 1, 2, 3 vibrationally excited states are totally symmetric, so these overtones correspond to parallel bands of medium/weak intensity, centered from 2010 to 2120 cm⁻¹ (2ν₁), from 1390 to 1430 cm⁻¹ (2ν₂) and from 1070 to 1100 cm⁻¹ (2ν₃). Most of the bands are unperturbed and their analysis was straightforward. The band origins, the rotational and centrifugal molecular constants in the v₁ = 2, v₂ = 2 and v₃ = 2 states have been determined, with standard deviations of the fits from 0.00024 to 0.00067 cm⁻¹. The 2ν₁ overtones of F³⁵Cl¹⁶O₃ and F³⁷Cl¹⁶O₃ are perturbed by an A₁/E Coriolis resonance between the v₁ = 2 state and one E component of the v₄ = 1, v₆ = 2 manifold. The 2ν₂ of F³⁷Cl¹⁸O₃ is perturbed by the same kind of interaction involving the v₁ = v₆ = 1 (E) state, at about 1396 cm⁻¹. In these bands the resonance is localized on rotational levels with specific J and K values. As a consequence, a few transitions of the perpendicular bands involving the interacting levels could be identified in the spectra. A simultaneous fit of the transitions assigned to the dyads has been performed and the parameters of the excited states have been determined, including the high order Coriolis interaction coefficient . The anharmonic constants x₁₁, x₂₂, x₃₃ of all the studied isotopologues of FClO₃, x₄₆ of F³⁵Cl¹⁶O₃, x₄₆ + g₄₆ of F³⁷Cl¹⁶O₃ and x₁₆ of F³⁷Cl¹⁸O₃, have been derived.     

H2-broadening coefficients in the ν2 and ν4 bands of PH3

H₂-broadening coefficients are measured for 41 transitions of PH₃ in the QR branch of the ν₂ band and the PP, RP, and PQ branches of the ν₄ band, using a tunable diode-laser spectrometer. The recorded lines with J values ranging from 2 to 16 and K from 0 to 11 are located between 995 and . The collisional widths are determined by fitting each spectral line with a Voigt profile, a Rautian profile, and a speed-dependent Rautian profile. The latter model provides larger broadening coefficients than the Voigt model. These coefficients γ₀(J,K) are found to decrease slightly on the whole as J increases and they decrease significantly for K values approaching or equal to J(J?4). The H₂-broadenings are also calculated on the basis of a semiclassical model of interacting linear molecules, using an atom-atom Lennard-Jones potential in addition to the weak electrostatic contributions. The theoretical results are in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data and reproduce the J and K dependencies of the broadenings, but the decrease observed for the QR(J,K) transitions with K=J is notably overestimated.     

High resolution study of the 3ν1 band of SO2

The second overtone band 3ν₁ of sulfur dioxide has been studied for the first time with high resolution rotation-vibration spectroscopy. About 3000 transitions involving about 900 upper state energy levels with have been assigned to the 3ν₁ band. In the analysis, an effective Hamiltonian taking into account accidental interactions between the vibrational states (3 0 0), (2 2 0), and (0 4 1) was used. The Watson operator in A-reduction and I^r representation was used in the diagonal blocks of the Hamiltonian. As the result of analysis a set of parameters reproducing the initial experimental data with the rms = 0.00028 cm⁻¹ was obtained.     

Simultaneous analysis of the 2ν2, 2ν5, and ν2 + ν5 vibration-rotation bands of CH3Br

Previous studies of the parallel bands 2ν₂ and $\text{2ν}{}_5{}^0$ of CH₃Br by the two first authors have been completed by the analysis of the weaker perpendicular band ν₂ + ν₅, centered near 2745 cm^?1. It is well known that the v₂ = 1 and v₅ = 1 states of methylbromide are linked by an x-y-type Coriolis interaction. Therefore, in the 2500–2900-cm^?1 range, the levels

$\text{(v}{}_2\text{=2), (v}{}_5\text{2, l}{}_5\text{=0), (v}{}_5\text{=2, l}{}_5\text{±2), (v}{}_5\text{=v}{}_2\text{=1, l=5±1)}$

are linked by a similar interaction. Least-squares and prediction programs have been written to treat this kind of problems and they have been satisfactorily applied to both isotopic species, CH₃⁷⁹Br and CH₃⁸¹Br. A localized resonance in the K = 0 subband of ν₂ + ν₅ has been shown to be due to the 3ν₃ + ν₆ band. No evidence for a strong Fermi resonance between ν₁ and $\text{2ν}{}_5{}^0$ has been found.     

High resolution rovibrational spectroscopy of pyrimidine: Analysis of the B1 modes ν10b and ν4 and B2 mode ν6b

We report the first high resolution rovibrational analysis of the infrared spectrum of pyrimidine (C₄H₄N₂) based on measurements using our Fourier transform spectrometer, the Bruker IFS 125 HR Zürich Prototype (ZP) 2001. Measurements were conducted at room temperature in a White-type cell with effective optical path lengths between 3.2 and 9.6 m and with resolutions ranging from 0.0008 to 0.0018 cm⁻¹ in the region between 600 and 1000 cm⁻¹. The spectrum was analyzed in the ν₄ (), ν_10b () and ν_6b regions of pyrimidine () using an effective Hamiltonian. A total of about 15 000 rovibrational transitions were assigned. The root mean square deviations of the fitted data are in the ranges d_rms = 0.00018-0.00024 cm⁻¹, indicating an excellent agreement of experimental line data with the calculations. The results are discussed briefly in relation to possible extensions to spectra of DNA bases and to intramolecular vibrational redistribution at higher energy. The analysis of the ν_10b and ν₄ bands will also be useful in the interstellar search for pyrimidine in the infrared region.     

CO2 and N2O laser Stark spectroscopy of the ν1 band of the ClO2 radical

The ν₁ fundamental band of the ClO₂ radical has been studied by means of the 10.6-μm CO₂ and N₂O laser Stark spectroscopy. More than 250 and 150 Stark resonances were assigned for the ³⁵ClO₂ and ³⁷ClO₂ species, respectively, and were analyzed together with the recent microwave and laser-microwave double resonance results to give molecular constants including spin-rotation interaction constants. The ν₁ band origins and electric dipole moments both in the ground and ν₁ states were determined accurately

E. Bertseva  Y. Ding  A. Garnache  D. Romanini 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》2003,219(1):81-87

The high-resolution overtone spectrum of OCS has been recorded in the region of the ν₁+4ν₃ and 5ν₃ bands by intracavity laser absorption spectroscopy based on an optically pumped vertical external cavity surface emitting laser (VECSEL). The extremely weak ν₁+4ν₃ band at was found to be isolated. The 5ν₃ band at is accompanied by two weaker bands at 9933.53 and assigned to the 12⁰4-00⁰0 and 04⁰4-00⁰0 bands, respectively. In addition, the 01¹5-01¹0 hot band was detected together with the extremely weak band heads of the R branch of the 02^0,25-02^0,20 hot bands. Finally, the 5ν₃ band of the ¹⁶O¹²C³⁴S minor isotopomer, present in natural abundance in the sample, was also observed and rotationally analyzed. Effective state parameters could be retrieved by standard band-by-band rotational fitting of the line positions, leading to a typical rms of . The observed line positions were compared to the predictions of the global model described by Rhaibi et al. [J. Mol. Spectrosc. 191 (1998) 32-44]. In general, the agreement is excellent, close to the experimental uncertainty () thus confirming the high predictive ability of this effective Hamiltonian model. Weak but significant deviations up to were, however, identified for two rotational levels of the highly excited 2,16⁰,0 dark state, observed through a local interaction with the 00⁰5 state. In the case of the ¹⁶O¹²C³⁴S isotopomer, the predicted line wavenumbers of the 5ν₃ band were globally overestimated by about . The new data have been included in the corresponding global model, leading to almost unchanged values of the molecular parameters and a statistical agreement with the experiment.

O.N. Ulenikov  O.L. Khabibulina  E.S. Bekhtereva  H. Bürger 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》2003,217(2):288-297

The infrared spectral regions of the P-D stretching fundamental band ν₂ and the first overtone band 2ν₂ of PH₂D were recorded with a resolution of 2.7×10⁻³ and , respectively. In the analysis about 710 and 440 transitions were assigned to the ν₂ and 2ν₂ bands. These provided 358 and 268 upper rovibrational energy terms, respectively. Resonance interactions between the states (010000) and (000200) were taken into account in the Hamiltonian used to fit upper energies of the (010000) state. The rovibrational energies of the (020000) state were fitted with a Hamiltonian for an isolated vibrational state.

Analysis of the hot bands in the 2ν₉ band region of propyne-d₃     

Geetha Rajappan 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》2004,224(2):107-113

The rovibrational spectrum of 2ν₉ band of CD₃CCH is overlapped by two prominent hot bands identified as (2ν₉⁰+ν₁₀^±1)(E)←ν₁₀^±1(E) and 3ν₉^±1(E)←ν₉^±1(E), where ν₁₀ and ν₉ are the degenerate CCC and CCH bending fundamental vibrations, respectively. Assignment of lines to the transitions of these hot bands were carried out with the help of the high-resolution spectra recorded at ∼195 K and at room temperature. Molecular parameters for these hot bands have been obtained from the rotational analysis of the partially resolved K-structure lines. Only Q-head of the third hot band , originating from the lower 2ν₁₀ state could be identified.

O.N. Ulenikov  E.S. Bekhtereva  C. Leroy  H. Bürger 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》2006,240(1):102-111

For the first time the infrared spectrum of the AsHD₂ molecule has been measured in the region of the bending fundamental bands ν₃, ν₄, and ν₆ on a Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.0024 cm⁻¹ and analyzed. More than 5500 transitions with J^max = 26 have been assigned and used both to obtain “ground state combination differences” and for the determination of upper state ro-vibrational energies of the triad (001000), (000100), and (000001). Rotational parameters including centrifugal distortion coefficients up to octic terms of the ground vibrational state were calculated by fitting more than 500 “ground state combination differences” with J^max and . The obtained set of 24 parameters provides a rms-deviation of 0.00011 cm⁻¹. The upper energies were fitted with 52 parameters of an effective Hamiltonian which takes into account strong resonance interactions between all vibrational states of the triad (001000), (000100), and (000001). The rms-deviation for the energy levels considered in the fit is 0.00014 cm⁻¹.

Infrared spectra of two isomers of OCS-C₂H₂ and OCS-C₂D₂ in the region of OCS ν₁ fundamental     

J. Norooz Oliaee  M. Dehghany  A.R.W. McKellar 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》2009,257(2):133-10422

Infrared spectra of OCS-C₂H₂ and OCS-C₂D₂ complexes in the region of the C-O stretching fundamental of OCS (∼2060 cm⁻¹) are studied in a pulsed supersonic slit-jet expansion using a tunable diode laser. For each complex, two bands are observed and assigned to distinct near-parallel and the T-shaped isomers. Ground state parameters were previously determined from microwave studies, so analysis of the infrared spectra gives information on the vibrational shifts upon complex formation as well as rotational and centrifugal distortion parameters for the excited states. All four bands show a red shift with respect to the monomer band origin, with the T-shaped isomer having a much larger shift than the near-parallel isomer. Disappearance of the T-shaped isomer when argon is used as a carrier gas supports the notion that the near-parallel isomer is the lowest energy form of the complex.
