Vibrational Predissociation Spectra of Size-Selected Hydrazine Clusters - Experiment and Calculations
Vibrational predissociation spectra of hydrazine (N2H4)(n) clusters have been measured from the dimer to the tetramer using a linetunable, isotopically substituted CO2-laser in order to fill the frequency gap between 990 and 1010 cm(-1). The clusters are size selected in a scattering experiment with helium atoms. The large blue shifts of the asymmetric NH2 wag mode at 937 cm(-1) are completely interpreted by calculations based on a recently determined systematic model potential. The gross shifts of 60 cm(-1) for the dimer, 80 cm(-1) for the trimer, and 110 cm(-1) for the larger clusters are explained by the different structures : Cyclic arrangements with two hydrogen bonds per molecule for the dimer, rings with one hydrogen bond per molecule for the trimer, and three-dimensional structures for the larger ones. The peaks in the spectra are caused by characteristic vibrations to which more than one isomer contributes.
