Notes:
Infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence, and incoherent saturation experiments have been performed on matrix-isolated BH2D−2. We find that the 942 cm−1 vibrational mode of this molecule in KBr is unsaturable up to laser pump intensities of 1 MW/cm2 in marked contrast with the earlier measurements on ReO−4, which give a saturation intensity of 55 W/cm2. The different behavior for the light molecule is a result of one-phonon decay to a nearby lower-lying internal vibrational mode. Because of the small moment of inertia of the molecule high frequency librational modes provide a third-order decay channel between this lowest frequency internal vibrational mode and the ground state.
