On the Lowest Excited Singlet State of Osmium Tetroxide.

Abstract

Two photon spectra of OsO4 in the region below the first strong one photon transition are observed and analyzed. The data fit a linear Jahn-Teller (Txt) calculation. An assignment of the two photon features as arising from a T sub 1 electronic state, origin at 27,295/cm, with a dominant linear Jahn-Teller active t sub 2 vibration nu sub 3, nu sub 3=588/cm(nu sub 3 = 1/960 cm), and with Jahn-Teller parameter D=0.5 is proposed. Based on these findings the two observed one photon states are discussed and qualitatively analyzed in a parallel fashion.
