Abstract
A structured spectrum of the à state of the Kr⋅NO complex has been obtained for the first time, employing the techniques of one‐color (1+1) and two‐color (1+1′) resonance‐enhanced multiphoton ionization spectroscopy. The T0 value of the Ã←X̃ transition is 44 201±1 cm−1, and the spectrum allows estimates to be made of the dissociation energies (D0) of both the X̃ and à states of ∼110 cm−1. Of significance is that the spectrum appears in both the Kr⋅NO+ mass channel and (when high photon intensities are used) in the Kr+ mass channel. Non‐Rydberg behavior of the à states of Ar⋅NO and Kr⋅NO is noted.
