Abstract
A highly resolved absorption spectrum of 127I2 in the region from 16999.100 to 17001.300 cm-1 is measured using a ring dye laser. The observed spectral lines, which show distinct fluorescence with the dominant colors red, orange, yellow and green have been assigned. Red lines are assigned to v″=0, orange lines to v″=1, yellow lines to v″=2, and green lines to v″=4. The assignments are also supported by the saturation behavior of the different lines. It is found that red lines are not saturable using laser powers upto 400 mW while lines having the other colors are saturable. Results are explained and a mathematical formula relating the saturation power Ps to the incident laser power and the absorbance is presented.
