Abstract

Currently there is great interest in the nature of the bonding in various types of metal dimers and clusters. Recently, the aluminum dimer has been observed in the products of laser vaporization of solid aluminum. The laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectra of the aluminum dimer reveal several electronic transitions.1 Spectra of these transitions will, be presented and the experimental molecular constants are compared with theoretical values.
