Popis: The vibronic structure of p -fluoroanisole in the first excited state (S 1 ) has been investigated with mass selected resonance-enhanced two photon ionization spectroscopy. The band origin of S 1 ← S 0 transition of p -fluoroanisole is measured to be 35149 cm −1 , which is red-shifted by 1234 cm −1 with respect to that of anisole. Combining with the ab initio calculations, the measured frequencies 397, 487, 559, 840 and 1150 cm −1 in the S 1 state are assigned as the in-plane ring vibrational mode 9 b , 6 a , 6 b , 1 and 9 a , respectively. The optimized molecular geometries and vibrational frequencies of p -fluoroanisole in the ground state (S 0 ) and cation ground state (D 0 ) are also achieved from DFT calculations.
