Abstract
It has been found in the rotationally resolved fluorescence emission of the 51 and 1141 levels of S1 H2CO that the rotational line intensity distributions of various vibronic bands are very unusual. This is due to the Coriolis interaction between the zero-order 51 and 1141 rotational levels and also the interaction between these and other neighboring levels. The theory of the rotational intensity bias and borrowing based on the rotation-induced vibrational mixing is used to explain the intensity anomaly as well as the variation in the mixing coefficients with the variation in the rotational quantum numbers, J′ and Ka. For most of the rotational levels populated at room temperature, the Coriolis-induced vibrational mixing of 51 and 1141 appears nearly complete.
