Experimental and theoretical investigations of the He⋯I2 rovibronic spectra in the I2 B–X, 20–0 region

Abstract: The laser-induced fluorescence and action spectra of I2 in a helium supersonic expansion have been recorded in the I2 B-X, 20-0 region. Two features are identified within the spectra. The lower-energy feature arises from transitions between states that are localized in a T-shaped conformation on both the X- and B-state potentials. The higher-energy feature reflects transitions from states that are localized in a linear conformation on the X state to states that have energies that are larger than the barrier fo… Show more

“…The first feature shifted nearly 4 cm −1 to higher energies in the experiments by Ray et al 12 can be attributed to the transition between the initial T-shaped state of HeI 2 ͑X , v =0͒ and the excited complex HeI 2 ͑B , vЈ , nЈ =0͒ in its ground vdW state. The computed blueshifts based on T-shaped binding energies are reported in Table III Blueshifts were also measured for the first excited band, which corresponds to the C band in the early work of Smalley et al 3 This band has been attributed 3,12 to the contribution of vdW excited modes nЈ ജ 2 for the B state. In order to analyze their recent experimental data, Ray et al 12 have relied on a semiempirical pairwise-additive B-state potential that also displays a single well about the T-shaped configuration.…”

“…4,5 In addition, Jahn et al have reevaluated the groundstate binding energy of the HeI 2 molecule based on their experimental results on HeBr 2 . 11 Recently, Ray et al 12 have published a joint theoretical-experimental study of the B ← X spectrum, which they interpret as resulting from the contribution of multiple ͑T-shaped and linear͒ conformers of He-I 2 complex. Furthermore, they have reported new estimates of the binding energies and structures of the ground and B excited state isomers.…”

“…The first experiments on van der Waals (vdW) clusters consisting of a dihalogen molecule and rare-gas atoms have been performed by Levy et al, 1,2 followed by a large number of studies on systems such as He n I 2 (n=1-3), 3,4 Ne n I 2 (n=1-6), 2,5,6 Ne n Br 2 , 7 Rg 1,2 X 2 (Rg=He, Ne, Ar and X=Cl, Br), [8][9][10][11] Ne n ICl (n=1-5), 12,13 He n ICl ((n=1-3). 14,15 More recently the interest in studying such species has been intensified due to additional experiments, rotational, and infrared spectroscopy on doped helium nanodroplets, [16][17][18] and on small/intermediate-sized doped helium clusters.…”

“…However, classically, a high-fluence pulse can induce such a fast rotation of the He-dressed molecule that helium atoms detach due to the centrifugal force -a mechanism which, we believe, is responsible for the sharp structure appearing in the prompt alignment peak. A simple criterion for detaching one He atom is: E rot (He) > E binding (He), where E rot (He) = [20,26]. Table I displays E rot (He) calculated for the different fluences.…”
