Abstract

Coriolis-induced vibrational mixing in S1 H2CO near E′vib=2000-2300 cm-1 is manifested by the rotational quantum number (J′,K′a) dependent variation of the emission intensity in the rotationally resolved, dispersed fluorescence spectrum. The c-axis Coriolis resonance between 2143 (K′a=5) and 214161 (K′a=4) is observed with ξst (c)≃0.2 cm-1. The b-axis Coriolis interaction between 214161 (K′a=5) and 4 461 (K′a=4) in S1 as well as the a-axis Coriolis interaction between 42 and 416 1 in S0 are observed. A significant degree of vibrational mixing is observed in the energy range, E′vib=2000-2300 cm -1.
