Abstract
The Ã(3)A"-X̃(3)Σ(-) electronic transition of the HCCN∕DCCN radical was observed by laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy. Rotationally resolved excitation spectra were observed for HCCN and DCCN, and effective molecular constants of the upper state were determined. The observed intensities of the rotational lines were anomalous, probably due to a level-dependent non-radiative decay process in the excited state. Fluorescence depletion spectroscopy was applied in order to observe non-fluorescent vibronic levels. A dispersed fluorescence spectrum was also observed to determine the vibrational level structure in the ground electronic state. The observed vibrational structures in the fluorescence depletion and dispersed fluorescence spectra were tentatively assigned based on the results of ab initio calculations.
