Lctur 8 Titl: Diatomic Molcul : Vibrational and otational spctra Pag- In this lctur w will undrstand th molcular vibrational and rotational spctra of diatomic molcul W will start with th Hamiltonian for th diatomic molcul that dpnds on th nuclar and lctronic coordinat. Thn w will us th Born-Oppnhimr approximation, to sparat th nuclar and lctronic wavfunctions W will driv th ign nrgy valus to undrstand th rotational and vibrational spctra of th ground lctronic stat of diatomic molculs. At th nd w will discuss th rotational and vibrational spctra of som diatomic molculs.
Pag-1 For a diatomic molcul A - B with n lctrons as shown in figur-8.1, th Schrodringr quation can b writtn as n i + V Ψ = EΨ µ m i= 1.(8.1) Whr, Ψ is th total lctronic and nuclar wavfunction & E is th total nrgy. 1 st trm: K.E. of th rlativ motion of th nucli with rducd mass mam µ = B m A + m B nd trm: K.E. of all lctrons. r a r b - And th potntial, Z Z ZZ V = + r r r n n n A B A B i > j= 1 i j i= 1 ia i= 1 ib = V V + V n nn A Figur-8.1 B Th molcular wavfunction, Ψ dpnds on both lctron & nuclar coordinats, Ψ=Ψ ( x, y, z, x, y, z,... x, y, z, XYZ,, ) = Ψ ( r, ) 1 1 1 n n n w.r.t. origin say nuclus A Sinc th wavfunction dpnds on both lctron and nuclus coordinats, it is difficult to solv this problm vn for a simpl molcul. W would lik to sparat lctronic and nuclar motion. Bcaus of th diffrnt masss of th lctrons and nucli, w can considr th nucli to b stationary to solv th lctronic problm (Born-Oppnhimr approximation).
Pag- Th ssnc of th Born-Oppnhimr approximation is to dcompos nuclar and lctronic motions basd on th larg disparity of th masss of nucli and mass of lctron. If w nd to solv th Schrodringr quation givn in quation-8.1 using Born- Oppnhimr approximation, w hav to follow fiv stps. Stp-1 Lt us assum that th nucli ar clampd in fixd positions. This approximation is almost clos to th rality bcaus th lctronic motion is so fast that it will s th nuclar motions almost stationary. This will liminat th nuclar kintic nrgy trm in th Hamiltonian in quation 8.1 Stp- Undr th assumption in stp-1, w can writ quation 8.1 as n i + V r r = E r m i= 1 (, ) φ(, ) φ(, )..(8.) Hr nuclar K.E. is zro, and appars only as a paramtr and φ ( r, ) wavfunction. W can follow th procdur to fix = 1 m Solv + V( r, ) φ( r, ) = E φ( r, ) i 1 1 1 1 is th lctronic Thn, fix = m Solv + V( r, ) φ( r, ) = E φ( r, ) i and do it for th ntir rang of.
Pag-3 Stp-3 Having obtaind th lctronic wavfunction φ ( r, ), and molcular wavfunction, E w can writ th total ( r, ) φ( r, ) χ Ψ =..(8.3) whr, χ Nuclar wavfunction Stp-4 Now w can substitut quation 8.3 in quation 8.1 and w gt, i + V r r µ m i (, ) χ (, ) φ(, ) χ = φ χ + i + φ χ µ m i = Eφ r ( r, ) V( r, ) ( r, ) Stp-5 Sinc, oprats only on φ ( r, ) µ i. W can writ, φ χ χ φ χ = + = Now, ( r, ) E E ( r, ) is th diffrnc w.r.t., so can oprat on both ( r, ) φ and χ. As a concqunc, th lctronic wavfunction is rlativly insnsitiv to changs in th nuclar positions and momnta, and is thrfor capabl of adjusting itslf quasistatically to th nuclar motion. This is known as th adiabatic approximation. Assumption: Elctronic wavfunction varis slowly with th intr-nuclar distanc,
Pag-4 So w gt, ( r, ) ( r, ) φ χ φ χ µ So, + E χ = Eχ (8.4) This is th Schrödingr quation of nuclar motion of diatomic molcul. It is indpndnt of lctronic motion whos ffct appars only through E, which is lctronic nrgy as a function of and act as a potntial nrgy for th motion of th nucli. This is th cntral approximation of th Born-Oppnhimr approach. Its justification stms from th fact that nuclar vlocitis ar small compard to lctronic vlocitis. Now w ar rady to solv th quation-8.4. This is simpl as w hav solvd it for hydrogn atom. Lt us introduc sphrical polar coordinat (, θφ, ) of on nuclus with rspct to othr as origin in quation 8.4, and w gt 1 1 sin θ E χ(, θφ, ) Eχ(, θφ, ) µ + + + = sinθ θ θ sin θ φ χ(,, ) (, ) Now, θφ = S θφ (8.5) Whr, ( θφ, ) ( θφ, ) S = S JM ar spcifid by th molcular total angular momntum quantum numbr J and Z - componnt M, analogous to H - atom quantum no. & m.

Pag-6 Now w will driv th slction rul for th transitions. W know that w hav to calculat th lctric dipol transition momnt intgrals to driv th slction rul. W tak µ l as dipol momnt of th molcul. So th transition momnt intgral is = SJM µ SJ M dτ Th componnts of th dipol momnt µ l ( ) ( ) ( ) µ = µ sinθ cosφ x µ = µ sinθ sinφ dτ = sinθ dθ dφ y µ = µ cosθ z π M cos M π sin im φ im φ Z = J J µ P θ P θ dθ dφ Sphrical Harmonics M M J1 J M 1 = M M J + M M J M + 1 M cosθ PJ ( cosθ) = PJ 1 + PJ+ 1 J + 1 J + 1 J + M M M J M + 1 M M Z = πµ PJ 1 PJ sinθ dθ + PJ+ 1 PJ sinθ dθ J + 1 J + 1 P P sinθ dθ = if J J J 1= J J =± 1; M = J + 1= J =± 1.(8.9)

Thus from th rotational spctrum of a molcul, w can driv th bond lngth and structur. Not: For molculs without prmannt dipol momnts such as H, th lctric dipol pur rotation transition probability is zro. In that systm th momnt of inrtia & intrnuclr distanc can b found out from analysis of rotational structur of lctronic absorption bands or rotational aman Spctra.
