High-resolution IR spectrum of AsH2D: Ro-vibrational analysis of the bending triad bands , , and

subject

description

Abstract The infrared spectrum of the AsH2D molecule has been measured in the region of the three bending fundamental bands on a Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.0024 cm−1 and analyzed for the first time. More than 7500 normally allowed and in addition about 600 forbidden, but perturbation-activated transitions with J max = 21 , K a max = 20 and K c max = 21 have been assigned to the bands ν 3 , ν 4 , and ν 6 . The measured transition wavenumbers were used to determine 1047 upper energy values. These energies were fitted with a Watson-type Hamiltonian in A reduction and IIIl representation taking into account resonance interactions between all three bending states, (001000), (000100), and (000001) and led to a physically meaningful set of 25 diagonal and 52 resonance spectroscopic parameters. These reproduce the experimental energies with an rms deviation of 0.00021 cm−1, which is close to the experimental uncertainty.
