Direct photodissociation of SO+ via the 14Σ+ state
1989
The direct photodissociation process SO+a4Π +hv → S+ (4S0) + O(3P) via the repulsive SO+ 14Σ+ state has been studied using a laser-ion photofragment spectrometer with coaxial beams. The kinetic energy distribution of the S+ photofragments has been measured at a laser wavelength of λ=488 nm (hv=2.54 eV). The spectrum shows vibrational structure which can be assigned to transitions from the vibrational levelsv = 7–13 of the initiala4Π state. The experimental data are used along with semi-empirical calculations to locate the potential curve of the repulsive 14Σ+ state in the Franck-Condon region. The results are compared with data obtained from photopredissociation studies of SO+ and with theoretical calculations for the 14Σ+ state.
