High Resolution Spectroscopy of the υ5 Band of Fluoroform-d (CDF3) by the Laser Stark Method

Abstract

Abstract The υ5 perpendicular band of CDF3 has been studied by means of laser Stark spectroscopy using the 10.4 μm band of the 12C 16O2 and the 12C 18O2 laser as infrared radiation sources. The assignment was established for more than 500 resonances. The majority of them was measured in saturation dip technique. A least-squares analysis of the Stark spectrum, together with recent microwave and infrared results, gave the rotation-vibration parameters and the dipole moment of the υ5 state. A brief description of the apparatus is also given.
