Examination of low-lying rovibrational states of D₃[subscript h] oblate top molecules using high resolution FTIR and coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopies

Creator:

Kirkpatrick, Robynne

Abstract:

Interesting rovibrational characteristics of two D_(3h) oblate symmetric top molecules were studied. Hamiltonian models for the fine rovibrational level structure of [1.1.1]propellane (propellane) were obtained for many low-lying modes. Ground state parameters (GSP) that are not exclusively K^(2n) dependent were obtained. Initially, the GSP were used in conjunction with density...
