Jet spectroscopy of anthracene and deuterated anthracenes

Abstract

Fluorescence excitation and SVL fluorescence spectra of jet-cooled h10-, 9d1-, 9,10d2-, and d10-anthracene are reported. Ground state vibrational assignments are presented for all these species and are compared with literature values. In addition, assignments for the first excited singlet state of h10-anthracene are made using SVL spectra and rotational band contours as guides. The work presented herein serves as an essential reference for other work from this research group concerning the dynamics of excited anthracene (see accompanying papers), and completes the spectroscopy of the polyacene series.
