    Notes: Abstract Searching for oxygen-isotope selectivity, we investigated the infrared multiphoton dissociation of the formaldehyde trimer around 10 µm, in a range where the molecule has a degenerate and a non-degenerate CO stretch vibration and a degenerate CH2 deformation vibration. In the region of the two latter, the wavelength dependence of the dissociation yield exhibits sharp structures. They were assigned ton-photon resonances (n = 2, 3, 5) by the help of the IR spectrum in the fundamental and overtone region. The O and C selectivities were very small (1.05) near the non-degenerate CO stretch band, but surprisingly large (2–4) in the CH2 deformation, which has no isotopic shift. The selectivity is not controlled by the first (n-photon) excitation step, but only by a later step. Its assignment is attempted. The pressure dependence of the dissociation is peculiar: Only after an initial decrease, the yield exhibits the usual rise with pressure. We attribute the decrease to a relaxation which perturbs the two-photon resonance.

    Notes: Abstract The small absorption is a major problem in isotopically selective IR multiphoton dissociation. Usually the radiation diverges before it is fully absorbed. To solve this problem, we have demonstrated the application of a refocusing (Herriott) multipass cell. It can generally help in laser isotope separation to use the photons more efficiently. Employing such a cell and a Q-switched CO2 laser at high repetition rate, the dissociation yield of CHCIF2 was 23 times higher than in a single pass. The number of passes used (up to 60) was more than is conventionally possible in such small cells. The increased number was permitted by making use of spherical aberration. With 18 passes, we also measured the multiphoton absorption for various wavelengths and pressures, in part separately for12CHCIF2 and13CHCIF2, and also for two-wavelength irradiation. Appropriate change of pressure or wavelength increased the absorption. But the corresponding increase of the dissociation was larger in every case. To explain this and other observations, we invoke the molecular distribution over the energy levels.
