van der Waals binding energies and intermolecular vibrations of carbazole⋅R (R=Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe)
摘要:
Mass-selective ground-state vibrational spectra of jet-cooled carbazole⋅R (R=Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) van der Waals complexes were obtained by populating ground-state intra- and intermolecular levels via stimulated emission pumping, followed by time delayed resonant two-photon ionization of the vibrationally hot complex. By tuning the dump laser frequency, S0 state vibrational modes were accessed from ≊200 cm−1 up to the dissociation energy D0. Upon dumping to ground-state levels above D0, efficient vibrational predissociation of the complexes occurred, allowing us to determine the S0 state van der Waals binding energies very accurately. The D0(S0) values are <214.5±0.5 cm−1 (R=Ne), 530.4±1.5 cm−1 (R=Ar), 687.9±4.0 cm−1 (R=Kr), and 890.8±1.6 cm−1 (R=Xe). In the S1 state, the corresponding binding energies are larger by 9% to 12%, being <222.9±1.0 cm−1, 576.3±1.6 cm−1, 756.4±4.5 cm−1, and 995.8±2.5 cm−1, respectively.
