Abstract

The $\tilde{A}^{1} A^{\prime \prime} (0,1,0) \leftarrow (0,0,0)$ electronic band system of DCBr has been measured in the region $11 720 cm^{-1}$ to $11 780 cm^{-1}$. Spectra were recorded using a transient absorption frequency modulation Ti:Sapphire $spectrometer^{a}$ incorporating a multipass Herriott-type cell for increased $sensitivity.^{b}$ The $(K = 0 \leftarrow K = 1)$ and $(K = 1 \leftarrow K = 0)$ sub-bands of both isotopomers, $DC^{81}Br$ and $DC^{79}Br$, have been assigned and spectroscopic parameters determined. Transitions involving levels from higher K states are visible but their assignments are complicated by a variety of perturbations (vibronic, spin-orbit, coriolis, fermi resonance) involving the two singlet states and a background triplet state.
