Ap. Milce et al., ROVIBRATIONAL SPECTROSCOPY OF THE C2H2-AR-VAN DER WAALS COMPLEX, USING A FLUORESCENCE DEPLETION INFRARED-ULTRAVIOLET DOUBLE-RESONANCE TECHNIQUE, Chemical physics letters, 250(1), 1996, pp. 95-103
A rovibrational spectrum of the acetylene-argon van der Waals (vdW) co
mplex, C2H2-Ar, has been measured in the 1.52(5) mu m '2 nu(C-H)' over
tone region by a time-resolved infrared-ultraviolet double resonance m
ethod. Infrared absorption by the vdW complex is recorded as a depleti
on of laser-induced rovibronic fluorescence intensity, providing a nov
el way to measure rovibrational spectra of simple vdW complexes and to
study their predissociation dynamics.
