Perpendicular bands

The selection rules are the same for oblate symmetric rotors, and parallel bands appear similar to those of a prolate symmetric rotor. However, perpendicular bands of an oblate symmetric rotor show Q branches with AK = - -1 and — 1 on the low and high wavenumber sides, respectively, since the spacing, 2 C — B ), is negative.

A parallel band of a linear molecule has no (7-branch lines. (The single vibration of a diatomic molecule is a parallel mode.) See Fig. 6.6. In C02, we see from Fig. 6.2 that v3 changes the dipole-moment component along the symmetry axis hence the v3 fundamental band is a parallel band in contrast, the v2 fundamental is a perpendicular band. 

This is an allowed transition that should give rise to perpendicular bands (the molecule being assumed to be an approximately symmetric top in both lower and upper states). Further, it should lead to a small increase of apex angle and probably to a small increase of S-0 length ... 

The perpendicular bands could not be detected in either complex. (For possible reasons of this see74)). 

The higher bridge deformation vibration is split into two at about 696 and 666 cm 1. It also has rotational fine structure. The vp bands are at 170 and 145 cm-1. The individual bands are perpendicular bands with strong Q branches whose spacing is altered by Coriolis interaction between the two components of vp. An interesting treatment of the latter is given in79>. 

The designations IR or R indicate that the fundamental transition for the mode is infrared- or Raman-active, respectively, and the labels p and dp give the polarization of the Raman band (see Exp. 35 for a detailed discussion). Parallel bands (II) have Pi branches, while perpendicular bands (J.) show POff branches. 

Portions of the infrared absorption spectrum of HCN. The bending vibration is a perpendicular band and therefore has allowed P, Q, and R branches. The [C-H stretching] vibration is a parallel band with Pand. / branches only. 

Vibrational Assignments and Fundamental Frequencies. Examine your survey spectra for C2H2 and C2D2 and note the striking difference between parallel and perpendicular bands. Determine the frequencies of as many of the transitions shown in Fig. 1 as your data allow. In doing this take the Q branch maximum of each expanded spectrum of the v, vi V2 - v, and perpendicular bands as a measure of these... 

Because is antisymmetric and (jU, p, ) are symmetric with respect to inversion, E, (Table 2), selection mles for allowed transitions in the parallel band are s while they are s + s, a + a in the perpendicular band (Fig. 8). 

The h-type transitions give rise to perpendicular bands in both limiting cases and the selection rules are... 

The first comprehensive study to address 2D behaviour was made with 3,5-dinitroaniline [123]. The two degenerate CT from the amino to the two nitro groups couple to give CT transitions with two mutually orthogonal polarization directions. TVo bands with polarization directions perpendicular, and parallel to the direction of the ground-state dipole along the C2 axis can be observed (Liptay et al., 1967 Wortmann et al., 1993). Tlie perpendicular band has the lower transition energy. 

Polarized EFISHG has been performed also on [128] for R = H (Wortmann et al., 1993). 2D behaviour is apparent from the different values. Incorporation of [128] for R = alkyl into bulk structures has been studied (Nalwa era/., 1991). Several other systems have been characterized by only a single experimental technique, amongst them organometallic species like [129] (Whittall et al., 1997). In dihydropyran [130] (Moylan et al., 1996) the perpendicular band is also missing and two transitions with parallel polarization contribute to the NLO activities observed. 

Finally, the complete parallel band is a superposition of all subbands. The composite of such a band resembles the perpendicular band of a linear molecule, apart from additional... 

Fig. 4.3-9 the A -.splitting in the other band is not resolved). The second parallel band (i/[ at 3336.2 cm ) is split much less, due to inversion doubling with AF = 1.8 cm. The P 4 fundamental at 1627 cm is a perpendicular band with the Q branch lines compressed in a smaller spectral interval compared to that of the CHyTspectrum. Another example of a spectrum which resembles those recorded with tower resolution, is the gas phase spectrum of benzene shown in Fig. 4.3-10. The fingerprint region below 2000 cm exhibits the mo.st intense fundamental (v ), which is a parallel band, at 671 cm , The two perpendicular bands at 1485 cm (vis) and 1037 cm (ph) demonstrate similar features.

Finally, it should be noted that certain overtone and combination bands, or the spectrum of an accidentally symmetric rotor may give rise to hybrid bands with both parallel and perpendicular band features. 

For B type bands, the oscillating dipole moment is oriented along the axis defining the intermediate principle moment of inertia, so that both symmetric top limits correspond to perpendicular bands, giving rise to the general selection rule... 

For oblate molecules the dichroism is further influenced by the transverse-axis order parameter D. Its influence is the larger the more the orientation of the transition moment differs from the preferred molecular axis. Largest contributions should be found for perpendicular bands (a = 90°), in any case the sign of the contribution depends on whether the transition moment projects primarily on the shortest or the intermediate molecular axis. For a transition moment under the magic angle the dichroism is governed by D alone due to the vanishing contribution from S. 

Figure 11.16 Stripe and band patterns produced by shearing PBG solutions between glass plates under crossed polaroids in a microscope. The field of view is 890 m, and the flow direction is horizontal. The two stripe patterns form at steady state the more irregular of the two (upper left) is produced by roll cells at a low shear rate (around 0.07 sec ), while the regular stripe pattern (lower left) occurs at high shear rate, 25 sec. The perpendicular band patterns are transients that occur either during start-up of shearing (upper right), or after cessation of shearing (lower right). The detailed conditions under which these patterns are formed are discussed by Larson (1994).

Hi) Most of the bands in the infrared spectrum of gallane vapor carry unmistakable signs of rotational structure no better example is provided than that of the two absorptions near 1980 cm" the appearance of which, as measured at moderately high resolution with the aid of a multiple reflection cell, is illustrated in Fig. 5. There are, it appears, two types of band. One type, exemplified by the band at 1976 cm S displays all the features characteristic of a parallel band of a highly prolate symmetric top molecule (see Section III.B.l). The other type has the attributes of a perpendicular band of such a molecule (as witness the band at 1993 cm in Fig. 5).
