Notes:
The infrared spectra of PH3 molecule were recorded on a Bruker IFS 120HR Fourier transform spectrometer from 4000 to 9500 cm−1. The P–H stretching vibrational frequencies and intensities were derived from the experimental data. The Morse oscillator parameters De and α in the anharmonically coupled anharmonic oscillator local mode model were determined by the least-squares fitting with the observed vibrational band centers. The ab initio three-dimensional P–H stretching dipole moment surfaces were calculated by the density functional theory method. The dipole moment vectors were projected to three kinds of molecule-fixed reference systems. The corresponding dipole moment components were fitted to polynomial functions in terms of the P–H bond length displacements with the molecular symmetry taken into account. The absolute band intensities were obtained and then compared with the experimental data. The results showed that a proposed improved bond dipole model can predict the absolute band intensities within a factor of 2 for most of the observed transitions, indicating a reasonably good agreement. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
