In this paper, we describe new measurements of the electric dipole moment of ICl A and X states. These measurements are deduced from a Doppler free laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy of the A-X t...

The electronic spectrum of the AsF2 radical was observed between 330 and 380 nm using one-color, mass-resolved, 2+1 resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy. The spectrum arises from two-photon resonances with the F-tilde (T0=54 355±15 cm–1, nu<sub>1</sub><sup>[prime]</sup>=813±6 cm–1, and nu<sub>2</sub><sup>[prime]</sup>=308±5 cm–1) and H-tilde (T0=57 480±15 cm–1, nu<sub>1</sub><sup>[prime]</sup>=810±10 cm–1, and nu<sub>2</sub><sup>[prime]</sup>=310±20 cm–1), Rydberg states. A third photon ionized the radicals. The REMPI spectrum exhibits vibrational hot bands that give spectroscopic constants for AsF2 (X-tilde 2B1) of nu<sub>1</sub><sup>[double-prime]</sup>=705±10 cm–1 and nu<sub>2</sub><sup>[double-prime]</sup>=285±10  cm–1. Solutions of the Rydberg equation indicate that plausible assignments for the F-tilde and H-tilde states are limited to the set of 4d and 5p Rydberg states.©1997 American Institute of Physics.
