Abstract
The laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectrum of the A2Σ--X2Π3/2 transition of CuO in the 540-620nm region has been studied, where the CuO molecule was produced by using the technique of dc discharge reaction under a supersonic condition. We have recorded and rotationally analysed the 0-0, 1-0, 2-0 and 3-0 bands. The rotational constants of the upper state A2Σ- were determined and vibrational constants improved. In addition, the lifetime measurement for the A2Σ- state was carried out under the collision-free condition and the lifetimes obtained are 469±2, 456±2, 488±3 and 490±4ns for v'=0, v'=1, v'=2 and v'=3 levels, respectively.
