Abstract

RCCSD(T) potential energy functions (PEFs) of the state of ZrO2 and the state of have been computed employing the fully relativistic ECP28MDF ECP and associated aug-cc-pwCVQZ basis set for Zr (aug-cc-pVQZ for O). These PEFs were used in variational calculations of anharmonic vibrational wavefunctions of the ground electronic states of ZrO2 and . Franck–Condon factors which include allowance of Duschinsky rotation between these two electronic states were then computed and used to simulate the photodetactment spectrum of . Excellent agreement between the simulated and observed spectra is obtained, confirming the reliability of the PEFs used.
