Hyperfine and Isotopically Invariant Parameters of the GeS Microwave Spectrum A. C. LE FLOCH AND J. MASSON Dkpartement de Physique, Part de Grandmont, Universite’ de Tours, 37200, France

The complete set of microwave data for the nine isotopic species of the GeS molecule, available in literature, is reduced to molecular parameters by a nonlinear least-squares fit. All the hfs lines due to 73Ge(I = 9/2) and “S (Z = 3/2) are included in this fit. Watson’s expressions of Dunham coefficients, including corrections to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, are used. Contributions from off-diagonal terms are taken into account in the hfs Hamiltonian which is numerically diagonal&d. A set of 12 hyperfine and isotopically invariant parameters is obtainedand compared with previousdeterminations.It is shown that the accuracy of the hfs parameters is improved by one order of magnitude by the global treatment of all the data. 1. INTRODUCTION

High-resolution microwave spectroscopy provides precise rotational molecular energy levels. From these data, one obtains an accurate and consistent set of molecular parameters, provided that appropriate energy level formulas are used. Recently, Watson (1) derived expressions of Dunham coefficients in terms of mass-independent parameters which include corrections to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Using these expressions, it is possible to reduce simultaneously the data involving all the isotopic species and to obtain isotopically invariant parameters U,, and the associated corrections from a direct fit of the data. Watson’s expressions have been successfully tested for several molecular species in various ranges of the spectrum: with infrared laser spectroscopy for CO (2, 3), by FTS measurements for HCI and CO (4), in optical spectra for LiH (5), and also with numerous microwave measurements (6-8). Most of the above studies involved ‘Z electronic states and ignored hypefine structure. Recently, however, Bogey et al. (9), combining infrared, millimeter, and submillimeter data for several isotopic species of the CS molecule, have been able to determine a highly reliable set of molecular parameters for the ground state of CS. Because of the small value of the hyperline structure parameter (eqQ N 13 MHz) of CS, off-diagonal elements of the hfs energy matrix can be neglected and Casimir’s formula with a diagonal spin-rotation contribution is an appropriate description of the hypetine interaction. In this note, we investigate the case of GeS, a molecule which has a large hfs structure. The GeS molecule is a good case since its hfs parameter (eqQ N 187 MHz) is more than 10 times larger than that for CS. Contributions from off-diagonal terms can be estimated from perturbation theory calculations: one finds, for example, that the AJ = +2 term gives a contribution of about 24 kHz to the J = 0 level. Such contributions are not negligible compared with the experimental uncertainties (the 0022-2852184 $3.00 Copyright0 1984 by Academic f’res, Inc. All rightsof reproductionin any form mrved.

WRMS is ~10 kHz) and should therefore be taken into account. Instead of using perturbation theory calculations, we have numericahy diagonalized the complete hfs Hamiltonian as it has been done already by Nair and Hoeft ( 10) for the GaI molecule. The microwave spectrum of the GeS molecule was observed by Hoeft (II) and Hoeft et al. (12). Later, Hoeft et al. (13) resolved and analyzed the hyperlme structure due to 73Ge (I = 9/2) and 33S (I = 3/2). More recently, Stieda et al. (14) measured with high accuracy 57 new frequencies. On the whole 130 experimental frequencies involving nine isotopic species are presently available. They are collected in Table I. Up to now, there has been no treatment of the complete set of data. The most recent analysis was carried out by Stieda et al. (14) who used 34 lines from Hoeft et al. (12) in addition to their own 57 new measurements, but did not include the 24 hfs lines. Furthermore, 15 earlier measurements of Hoefi (II) were also discarded, although they include about half of the data dealing with rare (34S) isotopic species. Stieda et al. were able to extract the adiabatic part of the Born-Oppenheimer correction from the primary observation on the rotational constants Yr,,. A direct fit of the complete set of data using the expressions of Dunham’s coefficients given by Watson seems a more efficient and reliable procedure. The present note describes this approach and compares its results with the parameters obtained previously. 2. THE EFFECTIVE

where Z&t is the usual rotational term, H,,(Z) the nuclear quadrupole interaction, and H&Z) the nuclear spin-rotation interaction. I, J, F, respectively, designate the nuclear spin angular momentum, the total angular momentum without the nuclear spin, and the total angular momentum: F = I + J. Z, J, and Fare the corresponding quantum numbers and u is the vibrational quantum number. Matrix elements of this Hamiltonian, in case (b& coupling with IZVASJZF)basis functions (I 7), are listed by Cheung et al. (16) for Z states (of any multiplicity) and are also given by Nair and Hoeft (IO) for a ‘Z state. ZZ,, is diagonal in J and F. Its matrix elements, with the preceding basis functions (where A = 0, S = 0, and N = J may be suppressed), can be expressed as Dunham (IS) expansions

the 3j and 6j Wigner symbols, arising from the addition

of angular momenta (20, 21). The first of these 3j symbols will be nonvanishing if J + J’ is even. As the triangular inequality imposes (J - 21 G S < J + 2, we deduce that nonvanishing off-diagonal elements of Z&,(Z) are obtained for J’ = J and S = J f 2. Let us remark that for J’ = J, that is, for the diagonal term, Eq. (4) yields to the well-known Casimir function (IS, 22). Practically, the dimensions of the Hamiltonian matrix can be reduced, since only off-diagonal terms for J < J’MAX+ 2 give nonnegligible contributions to the energy eigenvalues. The structure of the actual matrix is shown in Table II. The nine offdiagonal terms included in calculations connect diagonal terms with AF = 0 and AJ = +2. Their numerical expressions are given in Table II. The overall matrix, of dimension 17, can obviously be factored into blocks of smaller dimensions. The experimental data set contains only two hfs lines arising from ‘5 (I = 3/2). A crude estimation of the off-diagonal elements shows that they are negligible in this case and therefore the usual diagonal hfs Hamiltonian has been used for these two lines. As we have only one spinning nucleus, Z&&Z) is diagonal for all quantum numbers (10). Its matrix elements are simple and given by (JZFI~~,,~IJZF) = k C,,[F(F + 1) - z(z + 1) - J(J + I)],

where C,, is the nuclear spin-rotation

interaction parameter.

3. FITTING

PROCEDURE

The parameters have been obtained by fitting the experimental data to the line frequencies calculated from the appropriate Hamiltonian described in the previous section. This requires a nonlinear least-squares fitting procedure. Several techniques have been used for similar cases. We have written a computing program following the method described by Kotlar et al. (23). Every line was included in the fit, with a statistical weight equal to the square of the reciprocal of the experimental uncertainty. Corrections to initial parameters were obtained by using Marquardt’s algorithm (24) and the procedure is repeated until convergence is achieved. The progress of the fit toward convergence is measured by the dimensionless weighted variance &* = (N - p)-’ ; (F, -f;)‘/af I=1

LE FLOCH AND MASSON 4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The choice of the appropriate parameters is as usual a delicate matter. We carried out numerous trial calculations also investigating the effects of high-order Akl corrections. This led us to choose a total number of 12 parameters which are listed in Table III. Instead of B, the rotational energy involves six parameters: UO, (with two corrections $i= and A&), U,, , U2,, and US, ; while the distortion term includes two parameters U02 and Vi,. The hfs energy arising from 73Ge is expressed in terms of three parameters: eqoQ, eq,Q for the nuclear quadrupole interaction, and a single nuclear spin-rotation parameter C (the u-dependent term is unsignificant within the TABLE III Hyperfme and Isotopically Invariant Parameters for the GeS Molecule.

The correlation coefficients between parameters have also been considered in the choice of the parameters to be fitted. Five couples of parameters have been found to be highly correlated’: (U,,,, A$,“;)= 0.63; (UO,, A&) = 0.83; (U1,, I&) = 0.94; (U,, , U3,) = 0.90; and ( UzL, U,,) = 0.98. The last coefficient indicates that the value obtained for UjLmay be dubious. Including U,, terms in Dunham’s expansion seems, however, to be necessary in order to get reliable values for the other parameters. Actually, the vibrational parameter U,,(weG) calculated from UOIand UOZ(2) is in much better agreement with the optical value w, (for 74Ge32S)(25, 26) if U,, terms are included in the rotational energy expressions. The best set of parameters obtained in this work are given in Table III. The Dunham parameters previously calculated by Stieda et al. (14) and the hfs parameters given by Hoeft et al. (13) and by Lovas and Tiemann’s table (27) are also included in Table III for comparison. The final dimensionless variance (Eq. 6) is I? = 0.388 with a WRMS = 0.010 MHz. Since the value of G is smaller than 1, we conclude that most transitions are fitted to within their experimental uncertainties. Table I shows that the maximum value for the ratio IFi - fi‘l/a; is 1.8. This justifies the inclusion of all the 130 lines in the fit and demonstrates that the global treatment is adequate. It should be noticed that the parameters obtained in the present treatment agree with previous results within their respective uncertainties. The uncertainties (a) given originally by Stieda et al. are systematically smaller than ours; this is, however, not conclusive since the reduction of the Stieda et al. data recently performed by Tiemann et al. (7) yields uncertainties similar to ours. Conversely, the present treatment improves the accuracy of the hfs parameters by one order of magnitude. In conclusion, the global and direct fit of the high-quality and medium-quality data leads to a self-consistent set of microwave frequencies of the GeS molecule, while the hfs parameters have greatly gained in accuracy from the high quality of other measurements.

’ Correlations between the U,, and 4, parameters are not too high and allow a direct determination of these parameters. An attempt to linearize Eq. (3) by Tiemann’s expression (28) yields the same results.
