5 . Energy leels Hund s case b (Λ=0, S 0) more standard, especially for hydrides Recall: Σ, Ω not rigorously defined = angular momentum without spin S = /-integer alues J = +S, +S-,, -S i =,, F i () = rotational term energy ow, specifically, for OH? 5

6 . Energy leels The upper state is A Σ + For OH: Λ = 0, Σ not defined use Hund s case b = 0,,, S = / J = ± / F denotes J = + / F denotes J = / Common to write either F () or F (J) 6

7 . Energy leels The upper state: A Σ + F B D B D for pure case b F splitting constant 0.cm the spin-splitting is γ (+) function of ; increases with for OH A γ (+) ~ 0.(5) ~ 0.5cm - for Compare with ν D (800K) = 0.3cm - otes: Progression for A Σ + + denotes positie parity for een [wae function symmetry] Importance? Selection rules require parity change in transition 7

8 . Energy leels The ground state: X Π (Λ=, S=/) Hund s case a Λ 0, S 0, Σ defined Hund s case b Λ = 0, S 0, Σ not defined ote:. Rules less strong for hydrides. OH behaes like Hund s low like Hund s large at large, L couples more to, Λ is less defined, S decouples from A-axis 3. Result? OH X Π is termed intermediate case 8

9 The ground state: X Π 9. Energy leels otes: 3. For intermediate/transition cases where Y A/B (< 0 for OH); A is effectiely the moment of inertia ote: F () < F () / / D Y Y B F D Y Y B F For large B F B F 0 B F F For small Behaes like Hund s a, i.e., symmetric top, with spin splitting ΛA Behaes like Hund s b, with small (declining) effect from spin

Some similarity to symmetric top 3 Hund s a (A-B ) 30 F : J = + / F : J = / Ω = 3/ Ω = / Showed earlier that F < F J 5/ 3/ / T e = T 0 + AΛΣ For OH, A = -40 cm - T e = T 0 + (-40)()(/), Σ = / + (-40)()(-/), Σ = -/ T e = 40 cm - ot too far off the 30 cm - spacing for minimum J Recall: Hund s case a has constant difference of (A-B ) for same J F(J) = BJ(J+) + (A-B)Ω (A B)Ω -58.5Ω (A for OH~ -40, B ~ 8.5), Ω = 3/, / Ω = 3/ state lower by 36 cm - Actual spacing is only 88 cm -, reflects that hydrides quickly go to Hund s case b 0

11 . Energy leels The ground state: X Π otes: 5. Role of Λ-doubling J 7/ p + 3 p + J 5/ F F ic id Fi F i J cj J Fid Fic J J J d 5/ 3/ + + F : J = + / F : J = / Ω = 3/ Ω = / Showed earlier that F < F + + 3/ / F ic (J) F id (J) 0.04 cm - for typical J in OH c and d hae different parity (p) Splitting decreases with increasing ow let s proceed to draw transitions, but first let s gie a primer on transition notation.

12 3. Allowed radiatie transitions Transition notations Full description: A Σ + (') X Π (") Y X αβ (" or J") Strongest trans. e.g., R (7) or R 7 Y X " or J" General selection rules Parity must change + or + J = 0, otes:. Y suppressed when = J. β suppressed when α = β 3. Both " and J" are used where Y (O, P, Q, R, S for = - to +) X J (P, Q, R for J = -, 0, +) α = i in F i '; i.e., for F, for F β = i in F i "; i.e., for F, for F o Q (J = 0) transitions, J = 0 J = 0 not allowed Example: S R : J = +, = + F' = F (') F" = F (")

13 3. Allowed radiatie transitions Allowed transitions Allowed rotational transitions from "=3 in the A Σ + X Π system State or leel a specific ",J",",and Λ-coupling F c (3) F d (3) F (3) bands possible (3 originating from each lambda-doubled, spin-split X state) Main branches: α = β; Cross-branches: α β Cross-branches weaken as increases 3

14 3. Allowed radiatie transitions Allowed transitions Allowed rotational transitions from "=3 in the A Σ + X Π system otes: A gien J" (or ") has branches (6 are strong; J = ) + rule on parity F c F d 0.04(+) for OH for ~0, Λ-doubling is ~ 4cm -, giing clear separation If upper state has Λ-doubling, we get twice as many lines! 4

15 3. Allowed radiatie transitions Allowed transitions Allowed rotational transitions from "=3 in the A Σ + X Σ + system ote:. The effect of the parity selection rule in reducing the number of allowed main branches to 4. The simplification when Λ=0 in lower state, i.e., no Λ-doubling 5

16 4. Working example - OH Complete steps to calculate absorption coefficient. Identify/characterize oscillator strengths using Hönl-London factors. Calculate Boltzmann fraction 3. Calculate lineshape function (narrow-band s broad-band) 4. Calculate absorption coefficient k Absorption coefficient #/cm 3 of species (OH), #/cm 3 in state, h e, cm kt f exp 0 mec cm /s a a p A kt Fractional pop. in state ϕ[s] = (/c) ϕ[cm] To do: ealuate f, / a Step 4 Step 5 6

17 4.. Oscillator strengths Absorption oscillator strength f n",", ", J ", ", n', ', ', J ', ' or in shorthand notation elec. osc. strength f f f n" n' elec. ib. spin ang. mom. Λ-doubling F-C factor H-L factor n" n' q q " ' " ' f "' S J" S J" For OH A Σ + X Π (',") f '" (0,0) (,0) = band oscillator strength otes: q "' and S J"J' are normalized q " ' ' for Λ = 0 (Σ state), otherwise S J" S J ' g" el 4 for X this sum includes the S alues for all states with J" 7

18 4.. Oscillator strengths Is S J"J' = S J'J"? Yes, for our normalization scheme! From g f = g f, and recognizing that J+ is the ultimate (non remoable) degeneracy at the state leel, we can write, for a specific transition between single states In this way, there are no remaining electronic degeneracy and we require, for detailed balance, that f " f ', q q and Do we always enforce S J" for a state? o! But note we do enforce S J" S (4.7) and S J ' S (4.9) where, for OH A Σ X Π, (S+) = and δ =. When is there a problem? S S J ' J " el "' fel ' q' " J" J ' J" f " q J ' J ' S S J ' J " Eerything is okay for Σ-Σ and Π-Π, where there are equal elec. degeneracies, i,e., g" el = g' el. But for Σ-Π (as in OH), we hae an issue. In the X Π state, g el = 4 ( for spin and for Λ- doubling), meaning each J is split into 4 states. Inspection of our H-L tables for S J"J' for OH A Σ X Π (absorption) confirms ΣS J"J' from each state is J"+. All is well. But, in the upper state, Σ, we hae a degeneracy g' el of (for spin), not 4, and now we will find that the sum el el "' J ' J " '" of S J ' J " is twice J'+ for a single J' when we use the H-L alues for S J"J' for S J'J". Howeer, J " as there are states with J', the oerall sum S J ' 4 as required by (4.9) J " J ' J " 8
