Abstract

We have generated MgNC in supersonic free jet expansions, and measured the laser induced fluorescence excitation spectra of the vibronic bands of the $\tilde{A} {^{2}}\Pi - \tilde{X}{^{2}}\Sigma^{+}$ transition. We have found some new features in the spectra, though part of the spectra were already reported by Wright and $Miller^{a}$. The new features are consisting of the $\nu_{2}$ bending vibronic bands. From the rotational analyses of some of the vibronic bands, we have obtained information on the vibronic structure of the $\tilde{A}{^{2}}\Pi$ state of MgNC. The assignments of the $\nu_{2}$ vibronic bands were carried out utilizing the vibrational analyses of the dispersed fluorescence spectra obtained by the excitation of the $\nu_{2}$ vibronic bands. On the basis of the vibrational structures of the dispersed fluorescence spectra which are not only those of the $\nu_{2}$ vibronic bands but also the spectra obtained by the excitation of the other vibronic bands reported by $us^{b}$, the vibronic structure of the $\tilde{X}{^{2}}\Sigma^{+}$ state of MgNC has been analysed. The vibronic structures of the $\tilde{A}^{2}\Pi$ and $\tilde{X}{^{2}}\Sigma^{+}$ states of MgNC will be discussed comparing with the computational results by Hirano $group^{c}$.
