The spectrum of Zn II has been extended to complete the configuration 3d94s(3D)4p′ and 3d94s(1D)4p″. The configurations 3d109f, 3d1010f, and 3d94s(3D)5s′ have been added and a number of levels of the configurations 3d94s(3D)4d′, 3d94s(1D)4d″, and 3d94s(3D)6s′ have been tentatively established. Our list of Zn II lines contains 363 classified lines.Improved wavelength measurements have necessitated a revision of our earlier report on the spectrum of Zn IV. All the energy levels have been shifted slightly with respect to the ground state doublet 3d92D. In addition, 3 of 17 even levels and 10 of 43 odd levels have been changed. The new energy-level scheme results in the classification of 329 spectral lines as compared with 200 lines in the previous report.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
