Therefore, the minimum PE occurs at r = ro, which is the
mean bond length of the molecule.
Similarly at r , V(r) = De, the dissociation energy, energy
required to stretch the bond from ro to infinity.
The parameter b contains the force constant k of the bond.

asymmetric
This is our required potential for vibrating diatomic molecule.
This potential is asymmetric, suggesting that it is harder to
compress bond than to stretch it!
The negative coefficient of second term indicates that the
energy eigenvalue due to this term lowers the energy levels
whereas the last term reduces the spacing between the
energy levels.

Adiabatic Approximation
Here we improve our model for a diatomic molecule by
considering kinetic energy of nuclei in the rotational-vibrational
spectra.
Because of the larger mass, the nuclei in a molecule move much
slower than the electrons. This means electrons can immediately
adjust their positions to the new nuclear configuration when the
nuclei move.
The electronic wavefunction y (r,R) depends on the internuclear
distance R because they are barely affected by the velocity of
moving nuclei.
The kinetic energy by the nuclear motion (ENUC = ½ Mv2)
is small compared to that of the electrons. We therefore
write total Hamiltonian as,

Here Ho represents Hamiltonian for rigid molecule and
TK is the kinetic energy of nuclei.
Since TK is small compared to Ho, we regard TK as small
perturbation of H. In this situation, total wavefunction,

Consider an electrical
dipole transition from
the initial vibrational
state (n”) of the ground
electronic level (n’’), to
some vibrational state
(n ’) of an excited
electronic state (n’),
The
.
molecular dipole moment operator μ is determined by the
charge (−e) and locations (ri) of the electrons as well as the
charges (+Zje) and locations (Rj) of the nuclei:
1
The probability amplitude P for the transition between these two
states is given by
2
where ψ and ψ ′ are overall wavefunctions of the initial and
final states. The overall wavefunctions are the product of the
individual vibrational (depending on spatial coordinates of
the nuclei) and electronic space and spin wavefunctions:
3
This separation of the electronic and vibrational
wavefunctions is an expression of the Born–Oppenheimer
approximation and is the fundamental assumption of the
Franck–Condon principle.
Combining these equations leads to an expression for the
probability amplitude in terms of separate electronic space,
spin and vibrational contributions:

This integral is equal to zero because electronic wavefunction
of different states are orthogonal.

The Fortrat diagram gives information regarding the rotational
structure of molecular spectra. This information is extremely
important for rotational chemistry. In general, the line of P-branch
are densely distributed between the rotational quantum number 0
to certain value (say 16 in above figure), and the P branch turns
back, thus more transition lines form closer to the vertex of the
parabola.
Isotopic Effect
The Fortrat diagram gives information regarding
the rotational structure of molecular spectra.
Symmetric and di-symmetric properties of
molecules can be studied through Fortrat
diagram. This information is extremely
important for rotational chemistry.
Discuss Raman Vibrational spectra.
When a beam of monochromatic radiation passes through a
liquid or gaseous substance, it might get scattered. Either the
frequency of the radiation is unchanged (Rayleigh scattering)
or the scattered radiation has lower frequency (Stokes lines)
or higher frequency (anti-Stokes lines).
The important molecular property is the
polarizability which must change during
the vibration, in the Raman Vibrational
spectra.
The polarizability of ellipsoid should either change in shape or
size during a vibration for it to be Raman active.
