High resolution spectroscopy of the Vanadium oxide B⁴ [pi] -X⁴ [sigma] ⁻ (0,0) Band

The B⁴Π—X⁴Σ⁻ (0,0) band of VO has been recorded at sub-Doppler resolution by intermodulated fluorescence spectroscopy. Spectral linewidths of 60 MHz were typical; which enabled the hyperfine structure due to the ⁵¹V nucleus (I = 7/2) to be resolved for most of the observed branches. The hyperfine st...
