Measurements of pure CO(2) absorption in the 2.3-μm region are presented. The 3800-4700-cm(-1) range has been investigated at room temperature for pressures in the 10-50-atm range by using long optical paths. Phenomena that contribute to absorption are listed and analyzed, including the contribution of far line wings as well as those of the central region of both allowed and collision-induced absorption bands. The presence of simultaneous transitions is also discussed. Simple and practical approaches are proposed for the modeling of absorption, which include a line-shape correction factor χ that extends to approximately 600 cm(-1) from line centers.
Self-broadened and N2, Ar, He-broadened halfwidth and pressure shift coefficients of the rotational transitions in the 0003–0000 band of 12C16O2 have been measured from laboratory absorption recorded at room temperature with a Fourier transform spectrometer. Comparison is made with the results of a theoretical calculation based on a semiclassical model. Good agreement is obtained for all the IR vibrational bands for which data are available. It has been shown that the shifts mainly originate from vibrational dephasing. Infrared line shifts have been compared with results obtained from stimulated Raman spectroscopy and we show that they are not consistent. A number of possible explanations have been discussed to account for this discrepancy.
