Abstract
In this study, we analyzed the light absorption by diatomic molecules or colliding atoms in a spectral region dominated by an avoided crossing of adiabatic state levels or crossing of the corresponding diabatic state levels. Our attention was focused on the low-resolution spectrum at a higher gas temperature under local thermodynamic equilibrium conditions. The absorption measurements of mixed vapors of potassium (≈80%) and cesium (≈20%) were made in the temperature range of 542–715 K and the infrared spectral range 900–1250 nm. In this area, the main spectral contributions were the broad A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) − X 1 Σ ( g ) + ( 0 ( g ) + ) bands of K2, Cs2, and KCs molecules. There was a crossing of A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) and b 3 Π ( u ) ( 0 ( u ) + ) state potential curves and the coupling of this state was due to the matrix element ⟨ A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) | H s o | b 3 Π ( u ) ( 0 ( u ) + ) ⟩ of the spin–orbit interaction. Using data for relevant electronic potential curves and transition dipole moments existing in the literature, the spectra of the A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) − X 1 Σ ( g ) + ( 0 ( g ) + ) molecular bands of K2, Cs2, and KCs molecules were calculated. Full quantum mechanical and semi-quantum coupled channel calculations were done and compared with their non-coherent adiabatic or diabatic approximations. Through the comparison of our theoretical and experimental spectra, we identified all observed spectral features and determined the atoms’ number density and gas temperature.
