On a new approach to determining the ionization potential of molecules from spectroscopic data

Keynote · In-Person · Day 3

Abstract

About this talk

A new on principle approach has been developed for determining the adiabatic ionization potential Io(MX) of polar eM2+X– molecules with high accuracy (no worse than 0.02 eV) using spectroscopic data only. This approach is based on measurement of difference of Stark displacements DEo=½α¢(e¢)2–½α"(e")2 by internal field of X– anion with strength e=e/ in eM2+X– molecule of its electronic terms formed by non-bonding e electron orbitals located at M2+ on distance ro from X–. The molecular transition between the lowest non-bonding e electron orbitals observes in spectrum as the Rydberg series beginning To(MX) displaced from an atomic line E(M) on DEo=To(MX)–E(M) named by the optical shift which is immediately connected with the desired Io(MX) as follows from: Io(MX) = Io(M) –      Thus all magnitudes in formula for Io(MX) are found only from the MX, M and M+ spectra. The adiabatic ionization potentials of MX molecules with evaluated upper limit of its error ±0.019 eV are presented below.

It is proposed to make this approach by part of the spectroscopic studies along with the determination of other molecular parameters from the spectra: vibrational, rotational and electronic ones.
