Transition frequencies in the (2-0) band of D2 with MHz accuracy
Résumé
Series of spectra of the S(0) and Q(1)-Q(4) transitions of the (2-0) band of D 2 near 5860 cm-1 are recorded by comb-referenced cavity ring down spectroscopy at four pressures up to 200 Torr. After averaging, high resolution (30 MHz step) and low noise (noise equivalent absorption, min ≈ 1.5×10-11 cm-1) spectra are obtained for each pressure value. This leads to signal to noise ratios of several hundred for the considered very weak electric quadrupole transitions with intensities ranging between 4×10-29 and 4×10-28 cm/molecule. The Q(3) and Q(4) transitions are newly detected. A multi-spectrum treatment of the D 2 line profiles at different pressures performed using a quadratic speed-dependent Nelkin-Ghatak profile leads to residuals close to the noise level. Considering statistical fit errors and possible biases, total uncertainties on the frequencies extrapolated at zero pressure are estimated between 0.30 MHz and 1.83 MHz. The derived experimental frequencies and intensities of (2-0) transitions are gathered with literature values and compared to ab initio values reported in J. Komasa, M. Puchalski, P.
