title: Radiofrequency, Centimeter-Wave, Millimeter-Wave, and Infrared Spectra of SiHF(3): Investigation of the Ground, v(4) = 1, and v(6) = 1 Vibrational States.
abstract: The present paper deals with the analysis of the microwave, millimeter-wave, and infrared spectra of (28)SiHF(3) in its ground, v(6) = 1 and v(4) = 1 excited states. The former was observed up to 1055 GHz leading to the determination of one octic centrifugal distortion constant, L(J) = -0.0749(55) µHz. Furthermore the <k ||H ||k +/- 6> interaction term ||h(3,GS) || = 1.1032(70) mHz has been fitted from splittings of six K = 3 lines. The excited states have been regarded as isolated ones. This enabled fits according the Q-, D-, and QD-reduction schemes proposed by E. I. Lobodenko, O. N. Sulakshina, V. I. Perevalov, and Vl. G. Tyuterev, (J. Mol. Spectrosc. 126, 159-170 (1987)) and further developed by J. K. G. Watson, C. Gerke, H. Harder, and K. Sarka, (J. Mol. Spectrosc. 187, 131-141 (1997)) and Harder (J. Mol. Spectrosc. 194, 145 (1999)). A multiple fit analysis was performed confirming the assumption that the excited states are not affected by intervibrational resonances. Finally the millimeter spectrum of (29)SiHF(3) and (30)SiHF(3) in their ground state was also measured up to 460 GHz and accurate rotational and centrifugal distortion parameters were derived.
