A visible spectrum of jet-cooled rhodium monosulfide

A laser spectroscopic investigation of rhodium monosilicide

“…It arises from coupling of the spin of the unpaired electron and that of the 103 Rh nucleus (100% abundant, I = ½). The RhSi observation is in close accord with measurements made in the LIF spectra of RhO [22] and RhS [19] which have hyperfine splittings of 0.0126 and 0.009 cm À1 , respectively. No local rotational perturbations were found but it is clear from attempts to fit the data that the two sub-bands are perturbed (see below).…”

“…Its characterization through laser induced (LIF) and DF measurements affords an opportunity to compare theory and experiment and to correlate the molecular properties of RhSi with those of its 2p cousin, RhC [17], and with 3p relatives, RhP [18], RhS [19] and RhCl [20].…”

A high resolution visible spectrum of iridium monophosphide

“…While there are now quite a number of spectroscopic studies of rhodium-containing diatomic molecules (RhX, X = H, C, N, O, F, S, Cl, P) [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15], there have been very few spectroscopic studies of diatomic molecules containing iridium. Only five species, IrO [16], IrC [17], IrN [18], IrF [19], and IrB [20] have been reported to date.…”

A high resolution spectroscopic study of rhodium monochloride

“…The Balfour group at the University of Victoria has embarked on a systematic study of small rhodium-containing diatomic species and the Adam group at the University of New Brunswick has collaborated in studying the last few species. Six Rh-X molecules, where X=H, C, N, O, F, and S [2][3][4][5][6][7], have been reported to date.…”
