Observation of the C(3/2)←X(1/2) transition in XeF
摘要:
XeF(Xv′′), produced by KrF laser photodissociation of XeF2, is excited by a doubled dye laser to XeF(Bv′) and XeF(Cv′), and the broadband B→A and C→A fluorescence is detected. The B and C states are distinguished by their differing decay times at low pressure. The C←X transition is observed for the first time through its fluorescence excitation spectrum. The vibrational analysis of the C–X bands locates the C(v′=0) level at 775 cm−1 below the B(v′=0) level, and yields the first experimental vibrational constants for the C state. A band shape analysis of the C–X bands suggests that the equilibrium internuclear separation of the C state lies around 2.45 Å. Vibrational relaxation and vibrationally resolved collision-induced dissociation of XeF(Xv′′) is also observed.

The spectroscopic constants for Xe–HF obtained from molecular beam electric resonance spectroscopy are as follows: The structure and weak bond force constants derived from the spectroscopic constants are consistent with data on other noble gas–hydrogen fluoride complexes. It is found that the electric field gradient at the Xe nucleus for a given HF orientation scales with the electric field gradient arising from HF.
