Notes:
Dipole–dipole interaction between molecular vibrations is the most important source of inhomogeneous line broadening in the strongest infrared absorption bands of amorphous films of N2O and O3 prepared by vapor deposition at cryogenic temperatures. This type of broadening occurs in all strongly allowed absorption bands of amorphous solids. Comparison of spectra obtained for amorphous and polycrystalline ozone show that the crystal structure is anisotropic, and most likely uniaxial. The absorption line shape of amorphous films is satisfactorily predicted by a computational model in which orientationally disordered molecules on a regular lattice interact through long-range dipole interactions. It is shown that the normal vibrations are delocalized throughout the solid, and the absorption line shape depends on the macroscopic shape and orientation of the sample. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
