Abstract

The laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) excitation spectra and single vibronic level (SVL) emission spectra of the jet-cooled molybdenum monoxide (MoO) molecule in the gas phase have been investigated in the range of 16,500–23,200 cm−1. Totally 11 rotationally resolved excitation spectra have been observed, and the rotational constants in 10 upper excited states and 4 lower spin-orbit components of the ground X5Π state have been obtained. In addition, 10 spin-orbit components in the ground X5Π state, the first and second excited states a3Σ− and b3∆, have been identified in the emission spectra. Ab initio calculations have been performed and used to identify the observed low-lying states.
