Analysis of the Coriolis Interaction between nu(6) and nu(8) Bands of HCOOH

The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of the nu(6) band of formic acid (HCOOH) has been recorded with a resolution of 0.0024 cm(-1) in the spectral range 1050-1160 cm(-1). The nu(6) band was found to be strongly perturbed by the nearby nu(8) band centered at about 1033.5 cm(-1). Using a Watson's A-reduced Hamiltonian in the I(r) representation, and with the inclusion of a-type Coriolis coupling constant, a simultaneous fit of nu(6) and nu(8) was performed. A total of 2485 infrared transitions including about 700 perturbed transitions of nu(6) and 19 transitions of nu(8) was fitted with an rms uncertainty of 0.0006 cm(-1). Accurate rovibrational constants up to sextic order for both nu(6) and nu(8) were obtained. The nu(6) band was analyzed to be a type AB hybrid with a band center at 1104.852109 +/- 0.000050 cm(-1). The band center for nu(8) was found to be 1033.4647 +/- 0.0021 cm(-1). Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

High-Resolution Absorption Spectroscopy of the 3nu(1) and 3nu(1) + nu(3) Bands of Propyne

The 3nu(1) and 3nu(1) + nu(3) bands of propyne have been recorded at Doppler-limited resolution by Fourier transform spectroscopy and intracavity laser absorption spectroscopy, respectively. The two bands show a mostly unperturbed J rotational structure for each individual K subband. However, as a rule the K structure ordering is perturbed in overtone transitions of propyne and different effective parameters associated with each K subband have been determined. From the vibrational energy levels, a value of -6.6 cm(-1) has been obtained for the x(13) cross anharmonicity in perfect agreement with the origins of the nu(1) + nu(3) and 2nu(1) + nu(3) combination bands estimated from the FTIR spectrum. Hot bands from the v(9) = 1 and v(10) = 1 levels associated with the 3nu(1) + nu(3) combination band have been partly rotationally analyzed and the retrieved values of x(39) and x(3,10) are in good agreement with literature values. Finally, the 4nu(1) + nu(9) - nu(9) band centered at 12 636.6 cm(-1) has been recorded by ICLAS. The red shift of this hot band relative to 4nu(1) and the DeltaB(v) value are discussed in relation to the anharmonic interaction between the 4nu(1) and 3nu(1) + nu(3) + nu(5) levels.

Absolute Intensities of the nu(1) and nu(3) Bands of (16)O(3)

New experimental data on the nu(1) and nu(3) bands of (16)O(3) improving the value of absolute line intensities have been obtained. The intensities of 295 lines have been measured with an average accuracy between 2.5% and 3% and the rotational expansion of the transition moment operators for the nu(1) and nu(3) bands has been deduced. Finally, a complete listing of line intensities has been computed with an intensity cutoff of 1x10(-25) cm(-1)/molecule cm(-2). Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

Observation of Coriolis Coupling between nu(2) + 4nu(4) and 7nu(4) in Acetylene &Xtilde;(1)Sigma(+)(g) by Stimulated Emission Pumping Spectroscopy

Stimulated emission pumping (SEP) spectroscopy has been used to examine a low energy region (E(vib) approximately 4400 cm(-1)) of &Xtilde;(1)Sigma(+)(g) acetylene at higher resolution than was possible in previous dispersed fluorescence studies. The expected bright state, nu(2) + 4nu(4), is observed to be coupled to the nearly degenerate 7nu(4) state by a Coriolis mechanism. A least-squares analysis yields values for zero-order vibrational energies, rotational constants, and a Coriolis-coupling coefficient that are all consistent with expectations. Calculated relative intensities of SEP transitions, accounting for interference due to axis-switching effects, are also consistent with observations. Implications of the observed Coriolis resonance with regard to global acetylene vibrational dynamics are also discussed. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra of CH(2)DF: The nu(5) and nu(6) Bands

Results of a high-resolution infrared study of the spectroscopy of monodeuterated methyl fluoride, CH(2)DF, are reported for the first time. Spectra ranging from 500 to 3300 cm(-1) have been obtained and cover all the fundamental bands at resolutions down to 0.005 cm(-1). The two lowest energy fundamentals, the nu(5) and nu(6) bands, have been analyzed in detail. Since the molecule has C(s) symmetry, in principle both these bands are AB hybrids, since they belong to the irreducible representation A'. However, it was found that both are almost pure A-type bands. A total of 597 A-type lines of the nu(5) band and 619 A-type lines of the nu(6) band have been assigned. Vibrational and rotational spectroscopic constants have been determined by least-squares fitting to the data. An improved band center for nu(7) is also reported. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

High-resolution FTIR spectroscopy of the Coriolis interacting nu3 and nu9 fundamentals of methylene fluoride-d2

The Fourier transform infrared spectrum of the υ ₃ and υ ₉ bands of methylene fluoride-d ₂ (CD₂F₂) has been recorded with an unapodized resolution of 0.0024cm^-1 in the frequency range 970-1080cm^-1. These two bands with band centres approximately 26 cm^-1 apart were mutually coupled by Coriolis interactions. By fitting a total of 1639 infrared transitions of both υ ₃ and υ ₉ with a standard deviation of 0.00084cm^-1 S/S using a Watson's A-reduced Hamiltonian in the I ^r representation with the inclusion of a first order c-type Coriolis resonance term, two sets of rovibrational constants for υ ₃ = 1 and υ ₉ = 1 states were derived. The υ ₃ band is B-type while the υ9 band is A-type with band centres at 1030.1573 ± 0.0003 and 1003.7435 ± 0.0001cm^-1, respectively.     

The nu(1) and nu(3) Bands of the (17)O(16)O(17)O Isotopomer of Ozone

Using 0.002 cm(-1) resolution Fourier transform absorption spectra of an (17)O-enriched ozone sample, an extensive analysis of the nu(3) band together with a partial identification of the nu(1) band of the (17)O(16)O(17)O 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 nu(0)(nu(3)) = 1030.0946 cm(-1) and nu(0)(nu(1)) = 1086.7490 cm(-1) were obtained for the nu(3) and nu(1) bands, respectively.

High-Resolution Infrared Study of the nu(7), nu(8), and nu(15) Bands and Millimeter-Wave Investigation of the v(8) = 1 State of CF(2)Cl-CH(3)

High-resolution (Deltavarsigma = 2.3 and 2.9 x 10(-3) cm(-1)) FTIR spectra of natural and (35)Cl monoisotopic CH(3)CF(2)Cl have been recorded at -70 degrees C in the 600-1400 cm(-1) range. The bands nu(7), nu(8), and nu(15) have been rotationally analyzed for both isotopic varieties. With the help of predictions based on nu(8) parameters, the millimeter-wave spectrum of the (35)Cl species in the v(8) = 1 state has been observed and jointly fitted with the IR data. Only a small number of local perturbations have been detected in the spectra. Altogether more than 8000 IR transitions have been fitted with an experimental precision of ca. 3 x 10(-4) cm(-1).

High-Resolution Fourier Transform and Diode-Laser Spectroscopy of the nu(6) Fundamental of C(2)F(6) and Associated Hot Bands

High-resolution infrared spectra of the nu(6) (713 cm(-1)) band region of C(2)F(6) vapor have been recorded at several temperatures. Spectra at 77, 200, and 300 K were recorded using a Fourier transform spectrometer with unapodized resolutions of 0.0018 cm(-1) (200 and 300 K) and 0.008 cm(-1) (77 K). Spectra with rotational temperatures in the range 5-50 K were recorded in a supersonic jet using diode-laser absorption spectroscopy. The nu(6) band contains two clear sequences of hot-bands: one arises from the nu(4) torsional vibration at 67.5 cm(-1); the other, shorter, weaker progression is built on the doubly degenerate nu(9) vibration at 220 cm(-1). They lie to high and low wavenumbers of the fundamental band, respectively. Eleven series were assigned and fitted to these hot bands. A perturbed series in the nu(4) sequence is considered, by analogy with the infrared spectrum of C(2)H(6) vapor, to be caused by an xy-Coriolis interaction either between 5nu(4) and nu(9) + 2nu(4) in the ground state or, in the upper state, nu(6) + 5nu(4) with nu(6) + nu(9) + 2nu(4) or nu(6) + 5nu(4) with 2nu(8). One further series resolved only in the jet spectrum and lying very close to the fundamental is almost certainly due to the nu(6) fundamental of the isotopomer (13)C(12)CF(6).

The nu(2), nu(4) + nu(5), nu(6) + nu(9), and nu(8) Band System in 1,1,1-Trifluoroethane

High-resolution FTIR spectra of 1,1,1-trifluoroethane (HFC-143a) have been recorded in the region from 1370 to 1470 cm(-1) with an unapodized resolution of 0.0016 cm(-1) at room temperature and of 0.004 cm(-1) at 183 and 100 K. The two main infrared active bands of A(1) symmetry have been shown to be nu(2) at 1407.5 cm(-1) and nu(4) + nu(5) at 1440.5 cm(-1). With the aid of Raman spectra, the two infrared inactive bands of E symmetry in this spectra region have been shown to be nu(8) at 1457.5 cm(-1) and nu(6) + nu(9) at 1446.2 cm(-1). The nu(2) band was analyzed as an isolated band, whereas the nu(4) + nu(5) band was analyzed as part of the triad nu(4) + nu(5), nu(6) + nu(9), and nu(8). Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

High-Resolution Laser Photoacoustic Spectroscopy of HSiF(3): The 5nu(1) and 6nu(1) Overtone Bands

A spectrum of HSiF(3) has been recorded at room temperature with a gas pressure of 20-50 Torr in the near-infrared region. A laser photoacoustic spectrometer consisting of a longitudinal resonant cell coupled to a titanium:sapphire ring laser was employed. The 5nu(1) and 6nu(1) overtone bands of H(28)SiF(3) associated with the Si-H stretching have been observed at high resolution (3 x 10(-2) cm(-1)) in the regions 10 900-10 960 and 12 875-12 925 cm(-1), respectively. About 450 lines of the 5nu(1)-0 band have been assigned (J 相似文献   

High Resolution FTIR Spectroscopy of DCCCl: Anharmonic Resonances in the nu(1) and nu(2) Bands

High-resolution infrared spectra of the nu(1) and nu(2) bands of DCCCl were observed using Bruker IFS 120HR Fourier transform spectrometers at resolutions of 0.0044 and 0.0035 cm(-1), respectively. For the DCC(35)Cl isotopomer, the nu(1) as well as the nu(2) band was found to be heavily perturbed. Detailed analyses revealed that the nu(1) state is in resonance with the l=0 substate of the nu(3)+4nu(4) state and that the nu(2) state is in resonance with the l=0 substate of the nu(3)+4nu(5) state. The rotational constants played a key role in identifying the perturbing states. In contrast, for the DCC(37)Cl isotopomer, the rotational structures of the nu(1) and nu(2) states are almost regular but slightly perturbed by interactions with the nu(3)+4nu(4) and nu(3)+4nu(5) states, respectively. The constants of resonances as well as the molecular constants for the nu(1), nu(2), nu(3)+4nu(4) and nu(3)+4nu(5) states were determined. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

13C(16)O(2): Global Treatment of Vibrational-Rotational Spectra and First Observation of the 2nu(1) + 5nu(3) and nu(1) + 2nu(2) + 5nu(3) Absorption Bands

The effective operator approach is applied to the calculation of both line positions and line intensities of the (13)C(16)O(2) molecule. About 11 000 observed line positions of (13)C(16)O(2) selected from the literature have been used to derive 84 parameters of a reduced effective Hamiltonian globally describing all known vibrational-rotational energy levels in the ground electronic state. The standard deviation of the fit is 0.0015 cm(-1). The eigenfunctions of this effective Hamiltonian have then been used in fittings of parameters of an effective dipole-moment operator to more than 600 observed line intensities of the cold and hot bands covering the nu(2) and 3nu(2) regions. The standard deviations of the fits are 3.2 and 12.0% for these regions, respectively. The quality of the fittings and the extrapolation properties of the fitted parameters are discussed. A comparison of calculated line parameters with those provided by the HITRAN database is given. Finally, the first observations of the 2nu(1) + 5nu(3) and nu(1) + 2nu(2) + 5nu(3) absorption bands by means of photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) is presented. The deviations of predicted line positions from observed ones is found to be less than 0.1 cm(-1), and most of them lie within the experimental accuracy (0.007 cm(-1)) once the observed line positions are included in the global fit.

New High-Resolution Analysis of the 3nu(3) and 2nu(1) + nu(3) Bands of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO(2)) by Fourier Transform Spectroscopy

Using new high-resolution Fourier transform spectra recorded at the University of Denver in the 2-μm region, a new and more extended analysis of the 2nu(1) + nu(3) and 3nu(3) bands of nitrogen dioxide, located at 4179.9374 and 4754.2039 cm(-1), respectively, has been performed. The spin-rotation energy levels were satisfactorily reproduced using a theoretical model that takes into account both the Coriolis interactions between the spin-rotation energy levels of the (201) vibrational "bright" state with those of the (220) "dark" state. The interactions between the (003) bright state with the (022) dark state were similarly treated. The spin-rotation resonances within each of the NO(2) vibrational states were also taken into account. The precise vibrational energies and the rotational, spin-rotational, and coupling constants were obtained for the two dyads {(220), (201)} and {(022), (003)} of the (14)N(16)O(2) interacting states. From the experimental line intensities of the 2nu(1) + nu(3) and 3nu(3) bands, a determination of their vibrational transition moment constants was performed. A comprehensive list of line positions and line intensities of the {2nu(1) + 2nu(2), 2nu(1) + nu(3)} and the {2nu(2) + 2nu(3), 3nu(3)} interacting bands of (14)N(16)O(2) was generated. In addition, assuming the harmonic approximation and using the Hamiltonian constants derived in this work and in previous studies (A. Perrin, J.-M. Flaud, A. Goldman, C. Camy-Peyret, W. J. Lafferty, Ph. Arcas, and C. P. Rinsland, J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer 60, 839-850 (1998)), we have generated synthetic spectra for the {(022), (003)}-{(040), (021), (002)} hot bands at 6.3 μm and for the {(220), (201)}-{(100), (020), (001)} hot bands at 3.5 μm, which are in good agreement with the observed spectra.

Torsional Splitting in the Degenerate Vibrational States of (70)Ge(2)H(6): Rotation-Torsion Analysis of the nu(7) and nu(9) Fundamentals

The rotational and torsional structure of the nu(7) and nu(9) degenerate fundamentals of (70)Ge(2)H(6) has been analyzed under high resolution. The torsional structure of both v(7) = 1 and v(9) = 1 states can be fitted by a simple one-parameter formula. The x,y-Coriolis interaction with the parallel nu(5) fundamental was accounted for in the analysis of nu(7). A strong perturbation of the J structure of the E(3s) torsional component of the KDeltaK = -2 subbranches of nu(9) can be explained by the resonance with an E(3s) excited level of the pure torsional manifold. The perturber is centered at 361.58 cm(-1), very close to the value estimated with a barrier height of 285 cm(-1). This confirms that the fundamental torsional wavenumber is close to 103 cm(-1), in good agreement with the "ab initio" prediction. The torsional splittings of all the infrared active degenerate fundamentals, nu(7), nu(8), and nu(9), follow the trend predicted by theory, and have been fitted by exploratory calculations accounting only for the torsional Coriolis-coupling mechanism of all degenerate vibrational fundamentals in several torsional states. This confirms that torsional Coriolis coupling is the dominant mechanism responsible for the decrease of the torsional splitting in the degenerate vibrational states. A higher value of the barrier had to be used for the nu(9) mode. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

High-Resolution Infrared Spectrum of CD(3)CN: Analysis of the Interacting nu(3) and nu(6) Bands and Evaluation of the A(0) Constant

The infrared spectrum in the range 900-1230 cm(-1) including the fundamental bands nu(3) and nu(6) of CD(3)CN has been studied. The resolution attained was 0.0025 cm(-1) in the measurement on the Bruker 120 HR Fourier spectrometer in Oulu. About 4000 lines were assigned in the nu(6) band. For the weak nu(3) band, which has not been observed earlier directly, we were able to assign 206 lines in three subbands K=8-10. These lines become detectable due to the strong nu(3)/nu(6) Coriolis resonance. There is also an l(1,-2) resonance between nu(3) and nu(6), which made it possible to obtain a value 2.647721(50) cm(-1) for the axial rotational constant A(0), when D(0)(K) from force field calculations was applied. Different types of resonances with the overtone 3nu(8) and the combinations nu(4)+nu(8) and nu(7)+nu(8) were observed. A fit with a standard deviation of 0.0019 cm(-1) was attained by using a model of 10 different resonances. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

Infrared Diode Laser Spectrum of the nu(1) Fundamental Band of ClBO

The nu(1) band of ClBO has been recorded using infrared diode laser spectroscopy. The molecule was produced by reacting oxygen atoms, produced in a microwave discharge containing an O(2)/He mixture, with BCl(3). Thirty-three lines of the (35)Cl(11)B(16)O isotopomer and 32 lines due to the (37)Cl(11)B(16)O isotopomer have been assigned. By fixing the ground state constants to those previously obtained by microwave spectroscopy, a least-squares fit (rms = 0.0008) gave the following upper state constants; (35)Cl(11)B(16)O: nu(0) = 1972.18024(21) cm(-1), B(1) = 0.1725055(12) cm(-1); (37)Cl(11)B(16)O: nu(0) = 1971.82846(24) cm(-1), B(1) = 0.1688402(13) cm(-1). The rotational constants of all the fundamental bands of ClBO have been used to calculate an r(e) structure yielding r(e(B-Cl)) = 167.668(26) pm and r(e(B-O)) = 121.308(26) pm.

The Fundamental Bands in the Infrared Spectrum of Stibine (SbH3)

The infrared spectrum of stibine, SbH₃, has been recorded in the regions between 720 and 1000 cm^-1 and between 1750 and 2020 cm^-1 at a resolution of about 0.004 cm_-1. Rovibrational transitions belonging to the ν₂, ν₄ bending and ν₁, ν₃ stretching fundamental bands have been measured and assigned for both ¹²¹Sb and ¹²³Sb isotopomers. Strong perturbations due to rovibrational interactions have been observed both in the bending and in the stretching bands. Splittings of the K″=3, 6, and 9 lines have been observed and perturbation-allowed transitions with selection rules Δ (k−?)=±3, ± ±6, and ±9 have been also identified. Simultaneous analyses of transitions belonging to the ν₂/ν₄ or ν₁/ν₃ dyads have been performed. The central frequencies of the hyperfine structures of the rotational transitions in the v₂=1 and v₄=1 states, recorded in the microwave region by Fourier transform spectroscopy [H. Harder, C. Gerke, and L. Fusina, J. Chem. Phys.114, 3508-3523 (2001)], have been included in the data set. The theoretical model adopted explicitly takes into account the Coriolis interactions between the v₁=1 (A₁) and v₃=1 (E) and between the v₂=1 (A₁) and v₄=1 (E) states, including also several essential resonances within them.     

High-Resolution Infrared Spectra in the C-H Region of CH2F2: The nu6 and 2nu2 Bands

High-resolution, infrared absorption spectra of the nu6 (asymmetric C-H stretch) and 2nu2 (H-C-H symmetric bend overtone) bands of jet-cooled CH2F2 are reported with a sub-Doppler resolution of approximately 0.002 cm-1. More than 600 transitions were observed in the range of 3002-3036 cm-1, of which 268 were assigned the nu6 fundamental and 184 were assigned to the 2nu2 overtone. A fit of the nu6 band to the A-reduced Watson Hamiltonian yielded eight effective constants including nu0 = 3014.0503(1), A' = 1.62868(4), B' = 0.354165(5), and C' = 0.308852(3) cm-1. Similarly, the weaker 2nu2 band was fit to seven parameters including nu0 = 3026.2297(2), and A' = 1.63396(6), B' = 0.35367(1), and C' = 0.31183(1) cm-1. Numbers in parentheses are two standard deviations in units of the last digit. Anomalous values of the A rotational constant and the DeltaK centrifugal distortion constant are attributed to an a-axis Coriolis interaction between the 2nu2 and nu6 bands. The relative intensity of the 2nu2 band is used to estimate the stretch-bend anharmonic interaction with nu1. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.
