Rotational Analysis of the O-O Band of the b O+ + X1 O+ System of 130Te80Se’
The b 0+-X, O+, X, 1 band system of TeSe has been observed in emission in the near infrared using a, discharge flow system (1). In the present work the O-O band of the b 0+:X, O+ subsystem is recorded at high resolution using separated “@fe and 8oSe isotopes, and a rotational analysis is carried out. The experimental apparatus has been described in an earlier publication (2) and the conditions were similar to those given in Ref. (I). Isotopically enriched “@I’e(99.29%) and “Se (99.57%) were used and were obtained from Oak Ridge National Laboratories. The infrared chemiluminescence was focused on the entrance iris of a Bomem DA3.002 Fourier transform spectrometer and a spectrum was recorded in the region 7530 to 8800 cm-’ using a liquid nitrogen cooled germanium detector and a resolution of 0.02 cm-‘. The O-O band of the b 0+-X, O+ subsystem of ‘qesoSe consists of a simple P and R branch. Lines are observed up to J - 100; the lines in the R branch form a head at J - 40 and the lines with higher J values overlap those with lower J values and also the low-J lines of the P branch. As a result no clear zero gap is observed. The rotational numbering was determined by assuming that the ground state bond length lies close to the mean of the values for Tez and Sez (see below). The assignments are given in Table I. The frequencies of the lines were fitted by least squares to the usual quartic expression (3) and the molecular constants obtained are given in the lower part of Table II. The overall standard deviation of the fit was 0.003e, cm-’ but the stronger lines of the P branch which are free from overlapping are fitted to rlIO.001 cm-‘. The values of Bb, BE, Db, and 06 derived from the above numbers are given in the upper part of Table II together with the values for the bond lengths rb and r6. The values for D lie close to those calculated from the approximate Kratzer relation (3), Do - 4Bi/wZ where AGl,z is substituted for w, viz. 10’0’ = 1.02 cm-‘, lOgO” = 0.94 cm-‘. A few ground state bond lengths for related molecules are given in Table III. The values for the heteronuclear molecules lie close to the means of the values for the corresponding homonuclear molecules and provide the justification for adopting the present rotational numbering for TeSe. The intensity data are not sufficiently accurate to determine a rotational temperature but the overall distribution is consistent with a temperature of -3 10 K as has been found in related systems (2, 5, 6). The R-head of the b 0+-X, 1 subband is observed at 755 1.84 cm-’ but the intensity of the subband was insufficient to justify a rotational analysis. Nevertheless, we obtain a value for the Xz I-X, O+ separation, viz. 1233.49 cm-‘. This value differs from that given in the literature (7) by one vibrational quantum, indicating an error in the vibrational numbering in the earlier work. A stronger spectrum was obtained by us in the region 7300 to 9100 cm-’ using normal Te and Se and a resolution of 0.5 cm-‘. The bandheads for the ‘3@Te80Se, ‘**TesOSe,‘26Te80Se,‘3qe78Se, ‘2*Te78Se,126Te78Se, “@Tes2Se and ‘28Te82Seisotopic species were well resolved for the 1-O and O-l sequences but not for the O-O sequence. For the latter the high-resolution measurements were used. A Deslandres table for the lzaTe8’Se bandheads is given in Table IV. The best values for AG;,z and AG’i,* are obtained from the l-0, O-l, and O-O bands. The value for w,x: obtained earlier from an extended fluorescence series ( 7) was consistent with the present data (after isotopic scaling) and was therefore adopted, viz. w,xi = 0.72 cm-‘. The corresponding value for the excited state was obtained from the separation of the 2-l and O-l bands and the value for AG;,zr viz. W,X: = 0.86 cm-‘. The vibrational constants for both states are summarized in Table II.

Note. Measurements for the Au = 0 bands refer to bandheads taken from the high-resolution spectrum with separated isotopes. Other measurements are taken from the low-resolution run with normal Te and Se: a correction of 0.14 cm-’ has been added to allow for the difference in resolution.
