The He2 - OCS complex: comparison between theory and experiment

OCS is an ideal probe for quantum solvation effects in cold helium clusters. He2-OCS is the "second step" in going from a single OCS molecule to a large doped superfluid helium cluster. Here assignment of the spectrum of He2-OCS is significantly extended to higher values of J, K, and vt (the low frequency torsional vibration). The observation of a new infrared band, OCS nu1 + nu3, taken together with the known nu1 band, enables assignments to be verified by comparing ground state combination differences. Relatively straightforward scaling of previously calculated theoretical energy levels gives a remarkably good fit to experiment

Three new infrared bands of the He-OCS complex

Three new infrared bands of the weakly-bound He-OCS complex are studied, using tunable lasers to probe a pulsed supersonic slit jet expansion. They correspond to the (0400) <-- (0000), (1001)<-- (0000), and (0401) <-- (0000) transitions of OCS at 2105, 2918, and 2937 cm-1, respectively. The latter band is about 7900 times weaker than the previously studied OCS nu1 fundamental. Vibrational shifts relative to the free OCS monomer are found to be additive. Since carbonyl sulfide has previously been shown to be a valuable probe of superfluid quantum solvation effects in helium clusters and droplets, the present results could be useful for future studies of vibrational effects in such systems.
