The weaker electronic transitions in the region 2000–9000 Å in the emission spectrum of GeF have been photographed at high dispersion; three new transitions with the A2Σ+ state as lower state have been discovered, and the various systems near 2100 and 8600 Å have been reassigned. The spectra have been explained in terms of six excited states lying between 40 000 and 50 000 cm−1 above the ground state, and representative bands involving all six have been analyzed rotationally. Five of these excited states are Rydberg states (5pσ, 5pπ, 4dπ, 4dδ, and 6sσ), and the other is the σπ22Δ valence state; this latter interacts strongly with the 4dδ 2Δ state.

Three new electronic transitions of the C2 molecule have been observed in absorption in the region 1300–1450 Å. The system of shortest wavelength is readily identified as a 1Πu–1Σg+ transition; the lower state is the ground state X1Σg+ of the molecule. The other two systems arise by absorption from the low-lying a3Πu state; the upper states are new 3Σg− and 3Δg states. Rotational and vibrational constants of the three new states have been determined. The new states are Rydberg states. Their correlation to the separated atoms is briefly discussed.

Five bands of a new band system of P2 have been photographed at high dispersion and analyzed. The upper state of the system is a 1П0 state and lies lower than any previously known excited singlet state. The lower state of the new system is the ground state of P2 and the analysis of the new bands has given improved constants for this state. The new system appears to be the analogue of the Lyman–Birge–Hopfield bands of N2. The electron configuration of the low excited states of P2 and of related molecules is discussed.

Rotational structure of emission bands of the PO molecule in the region 5300–3800 Å is analyzed. The spectrum is attributed to 5 electronic transitions A2Σ+–B2Σ+, F2Σ+–B2Σ+, G2Σ+–B2Σ+, H2Σ+–B2Σ+, and I2Σ+–B2Σ+, where F, G, H, and I are the new electronic states and A and B are the upper states of the well-known γ and β bands respectively. Practically all the new 2Σ states are found to be perturbed. A qualitative account of these perturbations together with a deperturbation of certain levels is given. A number of cases of predissociation are also observed. This predissociation is attributed to the presence of 4Πi, and A′2Σ+ states, which dissociate to the ground state atomic products. From this an upper limit of the dissociation energy of the ground state of PO is determined to be D0 = 49 536 cm−1. The A, D, E, G, H, and I states of this molecule are assigned as Rydberg states corresponding to the σ4s, π4p, δ3d, σ4p, σ3d, and σ5s orbitals, respectively. From them a value of 67 570 cm−1 is evaluated for the first ionization potential of PO. All the electronic states established for this molecule are described in terms of electron configurations.

The Rydberg States of the PO molecule, converging to the ground state of the PO+ ion, are calculated using the LCAO–MO SCF orbitals of the molecular ion core. An adjustment between the observed and calculated values for the energy of the first Rydberg A2Σ+ state gives a value of about 66 400 cm−1 for the ionization potential of PO. The agreement between the experimental and calculated values is very good for the other observed Rydberg states. In the 5300–3800 Å region, no more than four 2Σ+ Rydberg states are expected, which supports the "deperturbation" procedure carried out by Verma. A comparison is made between the p, d, and ƒ complexes in PO and NO. The B2Σ+ state appears to be a valence state corresponding to the electron excitation from an antibonding (vπ)* orbital to a weakly antibonding (uσ)* orbital.

AbstractExciton polaron is a hypothetical many-body quasiparticle that involves an exciton dressed with a polarized electron-hole cloud in the Fermi sea. It has been evoked to explain the excitonic spectra of charged monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides, but the studies were limited to the ground state. Here we measure the reflection and photoluminescence of monolayer MoSe2 and WSe2 gating devices encapsulated by boron nitride. We observe gate-tunable exciton polarons associated with the 1 s–3 s exciton Rydberg states. The ground and excited exciton polarons exhibit comparable energy redshift (15~30 meV) from their respective bare excitons. The robust excited states contradict the trion picture because the trions are expected to dissociate in the excited states. When the Fermi sea expands, we observe increasingly severe suppression and steep energy shift from low to high exciton-polaron Rydberg states. Their gate-dependent energy shifts go beyond the trion description but match our exciton-polaron theory. Our experiment and theory demonstrate the exciton-polaron nature of both the ground and excited excitonic states in charged monolayer MoSe2 and WSe2.

Abstract Lifetime measurements down to nearly liquid helium temperatures are used for determining energy levels and transition rates between excited levels and relaxations into the ground state. Energies are obtained from temperature dependent lifetimes by fitting experimental curves to model functions pertinent for thermally activated processes. Rates are calculated from solutions of rate equations. Similar parameters for pure and doped Pt(IV) hexahalogeno complexes indicate that excited levels largely belong to molecular units. Some of the rates between excited states are only somewhat larger than decay rates into the ground state, which is a consequence of the polyexponential decay measured also at low temperature (2 K). In the series of halogen complexes, the rates between spinorbit levels resulting from 3T1g increase from fluorine to bromine, although energy splittings become larger. Due to the decreasing population of higher excited states in this series, K^PtFö shows a tri-exponential, K2PtCl6 a bi-exponential and FoPtBr6 a mono-exponential decay. In the latter case the population density of higher excited states relaxes so fast that emission occurs primarily from the lowest excited Γ3(3T1g) level. Phase transitions and emission from chromophores on different sites can also be observed.

A new system belonging to the emission spectrum of PtO has been found in the region of 3800–4500 Å. This system has the earlier known X1Σ ground state as the lower state and a hitherto unknown 1Σ state, here designated the D1Σ state, as the upper state. The four lowest vibrational levels of the D1Σ state were rotationally analyzed. Of these levels, the [Formula: see text] level seems to be unperturbed although the v′ = 1, 2, and 3 levels are strongly perturbed.

The emission spectrum of the ReO molecule has been photographed under high resolution between 375 and 875 nm. In addition to the 711.9 and 404.5 nm systems previously studied a large number of new electronic transitions have been classified on the basis of Re16O/Re18O isotopic shifts. The rotational structures of 18 bands of Re16O and 1 band of Re18O have been analyzed. Two low-lying electronic states in addition to the known common lower state of the 711.9 and 404.5 nm systems have been identified.

The two state approximation method for the study of the rearrangement collisions is applied to the process of positronium formation in excited states for positron–hydrogen charge exchange collisions. Differential and integrated cross sections are computed for positronium formation in 2S, 2P, and 3S excited states. The results obtained in the energy region 2 to 10 Ry are compared with positronium formation cross sections in ground state. Total positronium formation cross sections including the contributions of capture into all the higher excited states of positronium are also computed in the first Born approximation and the two state approximation in the energy region considered.
