Abstract: | Rotational analyses have been performed on the emission spectra of the 0-0, 1-1, 2-2, and 3-3 bands of the β system (c1Φ - a1Δ) of the TiO molecule, excited in a microwave discharge through a mixture of helium, oxygen and TiCl4 vapor. Rotational constants were obtained for all the bands from which the following equilibrium constants were derived. Be‘=0.52301±0.00008 cm−, αe‘=0.00313±0.0006 cm−, re−=1.6391±0.0001 AHigher order constants, Dv and Hv, were calculated for the various vibrational levels. |
