Abstract
The A 2Pi(u) - X 2Pi(g) electronic band system of the jet-cooled CS2 + ion has been studied by laser-induced fluorescence and wavelength-resolved emission techniques. The ions were produced in a pulsed electric discharge jet using a precursor mixture of carbon disulfide vapor in high-pressure argon. Rotational analysis of the high-resolution spectrum of the 2Pi32 component of the 0(0) 0 band gave linear-molecule molecular structures of r0" = 1.5554(10) A and r0' = 1.6172(12) A. Renner-Teller analyses of the vibronic structure in the spectra showed that the ground-state spin-orbit splitting (A = -447.0 cm(-1)) is much larger than that of the excited state (A = -177.5 cm(-1)), but that the Renner-Teller parameters are of similar magnitude and that a strong nu1 - 2nu2 Fermi resonance occurs in both states. Previous analyses of the vibronic structure in the ground and excited states of the ion from pulsed field-ionization-photoelectron data are shown to be substantially correct.
