Vibration-rotation emission spectra of gaseous ZnH2 and ZnD2.
Gaseous ZnH2 and ZnD2 have been discovered in an emission source that combines an electrical discharge with a high-temperature furnace. High-resolution infrared emission spectra of ZnH2 and ZnD2 have been recorded with a Fourier transform spectrometer, and the antisymmetric stretching fundamental bands of 64ZnH2 and 64ZnD2 were detected near 1889.4 and 1371.6 cm-1, respectively. Rotational analysis of the bands yielded r0 bond distances of 1.535 271(1) and 1.531 836(9) A for linear 64ZnH2 and 64ZnD2, respectively.
