The vibrational spectra of H{sub 2}, D{sub 2}, and HD trapped in solid argon were examined as a function of concentration and sample annealing. Before annealing, increasing the hydrogen concentration only leads to an asymmetrical broadening and a small blue shift of the {ital Q}( {ital J}) lines assigned to monomeric species. These observations are believed due to formation of low stoichiometry aggregates. After annealing above 35 K, new features---10 cm{sup {minus}1} blue shifted with respect to monomer and small aggregate lines---appear with properties comparable to those reported for solid dihydrogen at 2 K. Force field calculations on aggregates involving two to six molecules (including ortho/para and isotopic mixtures) allow a semiquantitative interpretation of the experimental data, and suggest an aggregation degree larger than six. Finally it is concluded that a possible interpretation of all the data is the formation of microcrystals upon annealing, tied to the low solubility and the high mobility of dihydrogen in solid argon.
