Description

Fluorescence excitation spectra of uranyl formate monohydrate UO2 (HCOO)2xH2O at 4.2 K show the UO+22 asymmetric mode to be active in the vibronic absorption. This assignment is based on the measure uranium isotope shift. It is also observed that the asymmetric mode occurs with a lower frequency than the symmetric in this compound, contrary to the order reported in other uranyl compounds
