By use of a free-jet expansion which incorporates a heated nozzle, we have recorded the laser excitation spectrum of the 460 nm band system of NiCl2 at rotational resolution. The rotational temperature in these recordings was about 12 K. Several bands have been recorded and analyzed for three isotopomers, 58Ni35Cl2, 60Ni35Cl2, and 58Ni35Cl37Cl in natural abundance. Spin components with Ω values of 0 and 1 have been identified in both the upper and lower states of the transition. Accurate values for all three vibrational intervals ν1, ν2, and ν3 have been determined for nickel dichloride in the upper state and for the bending wave number ν2 in the lower state. The results show that the molecule is linear in both states involved in the transition and that the lower (ground) state is 3Σ-g in character. Evidence is presented from the nickel isotope shifts to show that the transition is vibronically induced through the bending vibration and that the upper state is vibronically 3Πu in character; it probably derives from an electronic 3Δg state. The zero-point averaged bond lengths are determined for both states as r0′=0.209 435(13) nm and r0″=0.205 317(14) nm. The fine structure parameters for the X 3Σ-g state are interpreted in terms of low lying 1Σ+g and 3Πg states, which are shown to lie a few thousand reciprocal centimeters above the ground state. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
