Abstract

High resolution infrared emission spectra have been measured for AuH and AuD and for two isotopomers of each of CuH, CuD, AgH, and AgD. The molecules were made in a carbon tube furnace (King furnace), and in spite of intense background thermal emission from the furnace (at >2000 °C), vibration–rotation emission data could be recorded. Together with high resolution measurements taken from the literature, the data for each species were treated using two types of combined-isotopomer analysis: One based on fits to empirical molecular parameters, and the other based on direct fits to the underlying potential energy functions, both of which take account of mass-dependent Born–Oppenheimer breakdown correction terms. Accurate isotopically related Dunham parameters and Born–Oppenheimer breakdown parameters are obtained for each species, as well as accurate analytic potential functions and adiabatic and nonadiabatic radial correction functions.
