Abstract
The A→X fluorescence system of the Bi2 molecule in solid argon has been explored by means of tunable dye laser radiation. About 135 bands involving A state levels from v′=0 to v′=6 and X state levels up to v′′=26 are observed. Analysis yields ωe values of 133.4 and 174.3 cm−1 for the A and X states, respectively, and a band system origin at 17 719 cm−1. The Raman spectrum of the fundamental vibration and two overtones of Bi2 appear along with the fluorescence.Keywords
