Excitation-Spectra of Jet-Cooled Zni Radicals
Fluorescence excitation spectra of ZnI produced in a supersonic jet discharge are presented. Two band systems, B-2 Sigma(+) <-- X(2) Sigma(+) and (CII1/2)-I-2 <-- X(2) Sigma(+), were excited with a tunable ultraviolet (UV) laser operating between approximate to 356 and 304 nm. The spectra were found to be vibrationally warm (upsilon" less than or equal to 13) but rotationally cold. While the analysis of the C-X band system is in good agreement with published results, transitions from the ground state were found to probe higher B ion-pair state vibrational levels than previously known (36 less than or equal to upsilon’ less than or equal to 59). Precise B ion-pair state vibrational constants valid between upsilon’ = 0 and 59 have been determined. The relative change in equilibrium bond lengths between B-2 Sigma(+) and X(2) Sigma(+) was found to be 0.88(3) Angstrom by Franck-Condon calculations. This result suggests that the peak absorption of the ZnIB <-- X transition comes to shorter excitation wavelengths than those used in this work.
