Carbon Monoxide Triplet Rydberg Series in the f Complex Region.
Using a multistep state-selective excitation scheme, fluorescence-dip spectra of carbon monoxide have been recorded in the energy region between 106 100 and 112 200 cm(-1). Prominent groups of bands were tentatively identified as transitions into the 6f em leader10f (v=0) and 9psigma em leader11psigma (v=0) triplet Rydberg series. For the f complex states, molecular constants have been calculated. The triplet f levels show an unusually large rotational constant and are located at higher energies than their singlet counterparts. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
