Experimental determination of the H2O+ ground state inversion splitting

  • 1. Univ. of Chicago, IL

Description

High resolution infrared spectra of the 1- -0+ (10μm), 1+ -0- (20 μm) and 1- -1+ (27 μm) nu2 vibration-inversion bands of H3O+ have been observed in an ac glow discharge by using tunable diode lasers and velocity modulation technique. The three band origins were found to be at 954.4003(25) cm-1, 525.8237(13) cm-1 and 373.2304(47) cm-1, respectively. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants of these three bands were obtained. From the molecular constants obtained above, the ground state inversion splitting of H3O+ molecular ion has been determined to be 55.3462(55) cm-1
