Title: Spectroscopic determination of intermolecular potentials of gas laser components and of major atmospheric constituents. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6537308

A systematic study of the structure of weakly bound complexes of hydrogen fluoride has been accomplished. This research provides a broad account of the interaction of hydrogen fluoride with a variety of laser components and atmospheric constituents. Precision structures are now available for the species ArHF, CO/sub 2/HF, N/sub 2/OHF and SCOHF as a result of the present research program. In addition, precision structures have been obtained for ArCO2 and ArN/sub 2/0. This research provides the basic information necessary for reliable modelling of intermolecular forces between HF and Ar, CO/sub 2/, N/sub 2/0 and OCS as well as between Ar and CO/sub 2/ and N/sub 2/0.
