Abstract: | The absorption spectrum of the (2, 0) and (2, 1) bands of the B2Σ+-X2Σ+ transition of YO between 442 and 478 nm were recorded using laser vaporization/reaction with free-jet expansion and cavity ring down laser absorption spectroscopy. Local rotational perturbations have been found for both spin components of the v = 2 level of the B2Σ+ state. The observed perturbations could be ascribed to a degenerate perturbing state interacting with the B2Σ+ state. Least-squares fit of the observed upper state term values yielded molecular constants for the v = 2 level of the B2Σ+ state and the perturbing 2Π state. Earlier ab initio calculations J. Chem. Phys. 89 (1988) 2160] indicated that the C2Π state is nearby, it is plausible that the C2Π state is the perturbing state. |
