Jb. Liu et al., High resolution pulsed field ionization-photoelectron bands for CS2+((A)over-tilde(2)pi(u)): An experimental and theoretical study, J PHYS CH A, 105(11), 2001, pp. 2183-2191
The vacuum ultraviolet pulsed field ionization-photoelectron (PFI-PE) spect
ra for CS2 were measured in the full energy range of 12.6-13.5 eV, revealin
g complex vibronic band structures for the CS2+((A) over tilde (2)Pi (u)) s
tate. Three-dimensional potential energy functions (PEFs) for CS2+((A) over
tilde (2)Pi (u)) were also generated theoretically using the complete acti
ve space self-consistent field and internally contracted multireference con
figuration interaction methods. Using these PEFs, the harmonic frequencies,
anharmonic constants, and Renner-Teller rovibronic energy levels for CS2+(
(A) over tilde (2)Pi (u)) were calculated variationally. Many Fermi polyads
have been identified in the rovibronic states of CS2+((A) over tilde (2)Pi
(u)). Using present theoretical and available optical data, we assigned mo
st of the PFI-PE rovibronic bands due to excitation of the v(1)(+) (symmetr
ic stretching), v(2)(+) (bending), and v(3)(+) (asymmetric stretching) mode
s for CS2+((A) over tilde (2)Pi (u)). The simulation of rotational contours
resolved in the high-resolution PFI-PE bands for CS2+((A) over tilde (2)Pi
(u)); v(2)(+) = 0-3, v(2)(+) = 0,2, v(3)(+) = 0) provided accurate ionizat
ion energies for the formation of these states from CS2((X) over tilde (1)S
igma (+)(g)).
