Absorption spectra of cold vapours using FTS and collision cooling

Abstract

Spectra of polyatomic molecules, which are often very complex with many hot bands at room temperature , are significantly simplified if the sample can be cooled. The simplification aids analysis of the spectra in terms of rotational constants. Similarly spectral parameters such as line broadening coefficients, are needed to be known at cold temperatures for correct interpretation of many atmospheric measurements. However many polyatomic molecules also condense readily on cooling, so gas phase spectroscopy using conventional absorption cells at low temperatures is difficult, if not impossible due to the large negative temperature coefficient of SVP.
