Abstract

The interatomic interactions in a diatomic molecule can be fairly modeled by the Morse potential. Short range interactions of the molecule with the neighboring environment can be analyzed by modifying this potential by delta functions. Energy spectra and radial matrix elements have been calculated using an accurate nine-point finite-difference method for such an interacting homonuclear diatomic molecule. The effect of the strength and position of a single delta function interaction on the alignment of this molecule has been studied. The dependence of alignment on the strength of applied field has also been analyzed.
