Abstract

$^{67}$Zn hyperfine structure has been observed in the diatomic molecule ZnS in the microwave (6-26 GHz) region. The molecule was synthesized by the use of a newly constructed laser ablation source based on the design of Walker and Gerry., \textbfnderline{182}} (1997), 178} Previous rotational studies of this molecule have been performed in the millimeter-wave region (370-471 GHz range)., \textbfnderline{257}} (2009), 213-216} Rotational analyses, including the nuclear electric quadrupole coupling constant, will be discussed and compared with the literature.
