Correos 1065, Spain ReceiVed: September 1, 1996; In Final Form: NoVember 11, 1996 X Analytical expressions for te rotational-vibrational energy levels of diatomic molecules represented by te Tietz-Hua rotating oscillator are derived using te Hamilton-Jacoby teory te Bor-Sommerfeld quantization rule. In molecules wit moderate large values of rotational vibrational quantum numbers, te levels are in muc better agreement wit te results of numerical calculations tan te energies obtained from te common model of te rotating Morse oscillator. 1. Introduction Atom-molecule molecule-molecule collisions wit transfer of molecular rotational vibrational energy are important in plasma material processing, supersonic ypersonic flows, ligt sources, etc. Probabilities of te transitions depend on te molecular rotational-vibrational levels, te transitions involving moderately igly excited levels are often as important in gas kinetics as tose involving weakly excited levels. 1 Terefore, a general analytical expression for te molecular energies, accurate in a broad range of rotational vibrational quantum numbers, is of a common interest in pysics of ig-temperature gas. Suc expression would allow a substantial simplification of derivations of te transition probabilities for large number of atommolecule molecule-molecule collision systems for quick transparent evaluation of te main features of te collisions before tey are incorporated into complex timeconsuming collisional-radiative models of ig-temperature gas. Generality of te expression can be of great advantage in comparative studies of te molecular transitions in gases many different collision systems simultaneously influence te gas properties. Te main goal of tis work is to derive analytical expressions for molecular (diatomic) rotational-vibrational energy levels tat ave accuracy acceptable in applications better tan te accuracy of te commonly used expressions for te levels. We pay special attention to te reliability of te obtained expressions for moderate ig rotational-vibrational levels because tese levels often play crucial role in te gas rotationalvibrational dissociative kinetics. General analytical model potentials for diatomic molecules are available in literature (see ref references terein), te potential most common in applications is te internuclear potential of te rotating Morse oscillator L V M ef ) µr + D[1 - e) e-β(r-r ] (1) R is te internuclear distance, R e is te molecular bond lengt, β is te Morse constant, D is te potential well dept, Present address: Department of Aerospace Engineering, University of Soutern California, Los Angeles, CA X Abstract publised in AdVance ACS Abstracts, February 1, S (96) CCC: $14.00 µ is te reduced mass of te oscillator, L is its orbital angular momentum. Te rotational-vibrational levels resulting from a simplified solution of te Scrödinger equation for te rotating Morse oscillator can be given as E M V,J ) ω e( V+1 ) -ω e x e( V+1 ) +B e J(1 + J) - D e J (1 + J) () ω e, ω e x e, B e, D e are te usual spectroscopic constants, J V are te molecular rotational vibrational quantum numbers, respectively. Expression is a truncated series expansion solution of te Scrödinger equation for te rotating Morse oscillator. 3 Even toug more accurate (iger-order) expansions of te solution ave been discussed in literature, eq is te most common in applications (tat is wy we compare below tis expression (instead of a iger-order expansion) wit te results of te present work). Te popularity of eq results from te fact tat te expression is simple it predicts quite accurate values of te weakly-excited rotational-vibrational levels of diatomic molecules tat reliable values of te molecular spectroscopic constants ω e ω e x e are available in literature (most of te oter constants in te iger-order expansion representing te rotational-vibrational energies of te Morse oscillator are not available in literature, calculation of teir accurate values is not trivial). In molecules wit moderate ig values of te rotational vibrational quantum numbers, eq is inaccurate. Terefore, we derive below a general analytical expression for rotational-vibrational levels of diatomic molecules, wic as accuracy acceptable in applications better tan te accuracy of eq. In order to do so, we use internuclear potential in wic te rotational energy is te centrifugal energy of te molecular rotation (as it is done in relationsip 1) te vibrational energy is given by te function suggested by Tietz 4,5 discussed in great detail by Hua; 6 tis function (called ereafter te Tietz-Hua potential) reduces to, respectively, te Rosen- Morse, 7 Morse, 8 Manning-Rosen 9 potentials for negative, zero, positive values of te potential parameter c (tis parameter is denoted by c in ref 6)..

Te reason for coosing te Tietz-Hua potential in tis work is its remarkably good agreement (witin a broad range of te internuclear distance) wit te RKR (Rydberg-Klein-Rees) (ref 6 references terein) ab initio calculations (ref 10 references terein); see also discussions in refs According to tese works, te Tietz-Hua potential is muc more realistic tan te Morse potential in description of molecular dynamics at moderate ig rotational vibrational quantum numbers. Also, it was sown in refs 5 1 tat all practically significant analytical potentials allowing solution of te one-dimensional Scrödinger equation in terms of ypergeometric functions (te Tietz-Hua potential belongs to tis category) ave been already reported in te literature tat it is practically impossible to discover a new potential of tis kind. Tus, te Tietz-Hua potential seems to be one of te very best analytical model potentials for te vibrational energy of diatomic molecules. Terefore, we use it in te relationsip 3, wic is our coice of analytical approximation to te exact potentials (obtained from te RKR ab initio calculations) in diatomic molecules. Consequently, one of te (4) b ) β(1 - c ) (5) main tasks of tis work is to obtain accurate values of te parameters c from te exact potentials. Te parameter c of te Tietz-Hua potential is obtained ere, like in ref 6, from minimalization of te average value of te ratio U i ) U i - U /D, te internuclear potential U i is obtained from te Tietz-Hua function, U is te exact potential obtained from eiter RKR or ab initio calculations (te average is taken over all available data points of te exact potential). Tus, te degree of te overall agreement between te exact potentials te potentials 1 3 is measured ere by te ratios U i (see Tables 1 ; te corresponding values of c are given in Table 3). Te ratios are muc smaller tan 1 (typically, tey are smaller tan 0.05). However, one sould empasize tat a small value of suc a ratio does not automatically mean tat te sapes of te compared potential curves are equally close to one anoter in te entire considered range of te internuclear distance R. Tus, for example, potential 1 potential 3 for some molecules may ave very similar values of U i, but te potential curves does not ave to overlap in most of te range of te distance R. Tis lack of te overlapping can produce two (one for eac of te compared potentials) substantially different sets of te rotational-vibrational levels even toug te values of U i for te bot curves are very similar. Coice of te Morse constant β is not a simple issue. Solution of te Scrödinger equation for te Morse potential gives te following vibrational constants D ω e ) β[ π c µ] 1/ ω e x e ) β 8π cµ ω e ω e x e are in cm -1, D is in ergs, te rest of te quantities are in units of te cgs system. Tus, te constant β obtained from te expression 6 will differ from tat resulting from te expression 7 if te spectroscopic constants ω e, ω e x e, D are taken as te best available in literature; te latter (6) (7)

However, te Birge-Sponer approximation can lead to errors in values of D tat can be as large as 30%). In tis work, we calculate β from te relationsip 6 (Tables 1 ) because te constants ω e D available in literature are usually more accurate tan te anarmonicity constants ω e x e (also, expression 6 is identical wit te corresponding expression obtained from comparison of te vibrational force constants for armonic Morse oscillators at R ) R e ). Te anarmonicity constants ω e x e used in te present calculations are tose obtained from te best available data (typically, tese constants differ from tose predicted by expression 7 if β is obtained from expression 6). Te reason for tis coice of ω e x e is te fact tat all te exact (RKR ab initio) calculations of te internuclear potentials discussed in tis work used te best available values of te anarmonicity constants. 3.

As can be seen in Figures 1, expression 34 is always more accurate in describing te rotational-vibrational levels of diatomic molecules tan relationsip. (Te accuracy of te Morse model increases wit decrease of te degree of te rotational-vibrational excitation of te molecules, wile te agreement of te relationsip 34 wit te numerical solution of te Scrödinger equation for te potential 3 is quite good in te entire range of te vibrational rotational quantum numbers.) Expression 34 is less accurate for low V in te case of te H (X 1 Σ g + ) HF(X 1 Σ + ) molecules (te accuracies of te expression for tese two molecules are similar). Terefore, it is more accurate to use in suc cases te expression 6 wit te sum F 1 - F L - F 3 L 4 being replaced by te exact expression 65 (see Appendix Figure 3). One sould notice te significant differences between te values of V max obtained in te present work tose resulting from te model of te Morse oscillator (Tables 1 ). Te difference can be as big as te one in te I (X(0 g + )) molecule V max ) 96 (te present model) 174 (te Morse model). Tis is a clear failure of te Morse model because te realistic value of V max in te I (X(0 g + )) molecule is about 107 (see ref 16).
