Absolute line intensity measurements in the ν2 bands of HDO and D 2O using a tunable diode laser spectrometer

Abstract

Absolute line intensities for several individual vibration-rotation transitions in the ν 2 bands of HDO and D 2O have been determined at room temperature from laboratory spectra recorded with a tunable diode laser spectrometer. Two tunable semiconductor diode lasers operating in the 1250- to 1350- and 1060- to 1140-cm −1 spectral regions have been used in the recording of the data. Comparisons are made with previously published results where appropriate.
