Abstract

High resolution (3 + 1) and (2 + 1)REMPI spectra of HCl and DCl for total current detection at room temperature or TOF mass detection after jet cooling were recorded for the spectral region 89000-89600 cm-1. Analysis of the (3 + 1)REMPI spectra by use of three-photon absorption modeling allowed, for the first time, identification and characterization of the l( 3Φ3) states. Consistent anomalies in spectral structures due to transitions to the j(3Σ-)(0 +) state are interpreted as being due to interactions with the V(1Σ+) ion-pair states. Interaction strengths are evaluated. Simulation analyses and determination of isotope shifts allowed evaluation of vibrational and rotational spectroscopic parameters for the l(3Φ3) and the j(3Σ-) (0+) states for both molecules.
