Ultraviolet absorption spectrum of GeF2

Geometries and Energy Separations of Electronic States of GeF2, SnF2, and PbF2 and Their Positive Ions

“…At the CASMCSCF step the 2s2 subshell of the fluorine atom was kept inactive since the outermost 2s orbitals of the F atoms are relatively lower in energy and thus do not take part in bonding. This yielded 14 active electrons for MF2 and 13 active electrons for MF2+ which were distributed in all possible ways in the active space consisting of 4 ah 3 b2,2 bj, and 1 a2 orbital. The CASMCSCF calculations included up to 1748 configurations for MF2 and 3498 configurations for MF2+.…”

Spectroscopic detection and characterization of iodogermylene (HGel)

“…Building on earlier low-resolution hightemperature studies in the literature, [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] we were able to obtain vibrationally resolved spectra of the à 1 B 1 -X 1 A 1 and ã 3 B 1 -X 1 A 1 band systems of difluorogermylene 15 and dichlorogermylene. 16 In 1993, Saito and Obi reported 6 the first observation of the electronic spectra of GeH 2 and GeD 2 , obtained by photolysis of phenylgermane in a supersonic expansion.…”
