Abstract

This paper reports the first experimental observation of the doubly excited valence (2p+2p)3Σ−g state of 7Li2. We used cw perturbation-facilitated optical–optical double resonance (PFOODR) fluorescence excitation and resolved fluorescence spectroscopic techniques. All the observed levels have been detected through perturbations by the 2 3Πg state. The deperturbed primary molecular constants of this 1 3Σ−g state are Te=34 045.354(43) cm−1, ωe=216.820(37) cm−1, Be=0.673 69(47) cm−1, Re=2.670 81(94) Å, and De=4279.306(43) cm−1. The equilibrium internuclear distance of the 1 3Σ−g state is smaller than that of the X 1Σ+g ground state.
