Coriolis interaction parameters of the (2100; F2) bands of SiH4 and GeH4. A test of local mode models

Abstract The high-resolution spectra of the (2100; F 2 , N ), N = 1 and 2, bands of SiH 4 and GeH 4 have been recorded and preliminary analyzed. The Coriolis interaction parameter 2 Bζ 3 is obtained; it provides a test of three widely used models: the harmonically coupled anharmonic oscillators model with two different kinds of variables, and the normal mode model with Darling-Dennison resonance included.
