Abstract
Far-infrared laser magnetic resonance is used to measure rotational spectra of simple cations generated in intracavity discharges.1,2 Hyperfine energy levels are resolved, revealing the electron spin density distribution in the molecules. A similar technique, employing an intracavity supersonic free jet and an electric field for tuning, is used to measure vibration-rotation spectra of Van der Waals bonds. The bend and stretch motions of the Van der Waals bonds3 in ArHCl and KrHCl have been studied with hyperfine resolution. A detailed description of the potential energy surface is obtained from analysis of these spectra.
