N2-broadening coefficients have been measured for 22 lines of C2H2 at 173.4 K in the P and R branches of the nu5 band, using a tunable diode-laser spectrometer. The lines with J values ranging from 1 to 29 are located in the spectral range of 661-762 cm-1. The collisional widths obtained by Rautian profiles fitting closely the measured spectral shape of the lines are slightly larger than those derived from Voigt profiles. Semiclassical calculations of these broadenings have been performed by considering, in addition to electrostatic interactions, successively the atom-atom model and the Tipping-Herman intermolecular potential. The results obtained, which for some of them are in good agreement with the experimental data, depend significantly on the isotropic potential used to describe the trajectory model. By comparing broadening coefficients at room and low temperature, their temperature dependencies have been determined both experimentally and theoretically Copyright 1998 Academic Press.

Article Synopsis
  • The molecular ion HCCCH was studied using a cryogenic ion trap and leak-out spectroscopy at very low temperatures (4 K).
  • For the first time, high-resolution measurements were obtained for the fundamental ν band (antisymmetric H-C-H stretch) and the combination band ν + ν (C≡C stretch and CH rock).
  • This research, supported by advanced quantum chemical calculations, significantly improved the accuracy of the rotational constant for HCCCH by seventy times compared to previous studies.

High-resolution ro-vibrational and rotational spectroscopy of HCO.

Phys Chem Chem Phys

July 2023

I. Physikalisches Institut, Universität zu Köln, Zülpicher Str. 77, 50937 Köln, Germany.

The ro-vibrational and pure rotational spectra of the linear ion HCO have been investigated in a 4 K cryogenic ion trap instrument. For this, a novel action spectroscopic technique, called leak-out-spectroscopy (LOS, Schmid , 2022, , 8111), has been utilized and characterized. In total, 45 ro-vibrational transitions within the fundamental band of the C-H stretching mode were measured with a band center at 3237.

Aggregation induced spectral splitting and Fermi resonance of Ethylene Carbonate in binary mixture.

The vibration band of the ring stretching (ν), the fundamental ring breathing (ν) and the Fermi resonance band of carbonyl stretching mixing with the overtone of the ring breathing (ν 2ν) have been investigated in solid ethylene carbonate (EC) and EC/CHCN and EC/CHCl binary mixture. Dimer structure with aggregation-induced spectral splitting model (AIS) was applied to calculate the vibration spectra using the B3LYP-D3/6-311+G (d,p) procedure. The noncoincidence effect (NCE) and concentration induced frequency shifts of the ν and ν could be well explained by AIS model based on the dimer structure.

For decades, sulfur has remained underdetected in molecular form within the dense interstellar medium (ISM), and somewhere a molecular sulfur sink exists where it may be hiding. With the discovery of hydrogen peroxide (HOOH) in the ISM in 2011, a natural starting point may be found in sulfur-bearing analogs that are chemically similar to HOOH: hydrogen thioperoxide (HOSH) and hydrogen persulfide (HSSH). The present theoretical study couples the accuracy in the anharmonic fundamental vibrational frequencies from the explicitly correlated coupled cluster theory with the accurate rotational constants provided by canonical high-level coupled cluster theory to produce rovibrational spectra for use in the potential observation of HOSH and HSSH.

The higher-energy cis- as well as the global minimum trans-rotamers of the four H/D isotopologues of the formic acid monomer have been examined with Raman jet spectroscopy extending the vibrational gas phase reference database by eleven new cis-band positions for HCOOD, DCOOH, and DCOOD. With these new additions, all O-H/D, C-H/D, and C[double bond, length as m-dash]O stretching as well as the O-D in-plane bending vibrations of these higher-energy rotamers are known in addition to the previously determined C-O stretch and OH torsion of cis-HCOOH. Further, a comparison of the vibrational spectra of all four H/D isotopologues of the globally stable trans-rotamer of formic acid is shown to be very helpful in revealing similarities and differences in these systems, particularly with regard to Fermi resonances.
