A study is being made of the far infrared absorption occurring in compressed rare-gas mixtures, and compressed homonuclear diatomic gases. The region investigated lies between 20 and 400 cm−1. The spectra are obtained from the Fourier analysis of interferograms produced by a dynamic Michelson interferometer. It is possible to obtain accurate absolute absorption coefficients for broad bands using this method provided care is exercised in the analysis of the interferograms. The necessary precautions are discussed in detail. The precision of the method obtained in practice is demonstrated using the far infrared bands of hydrogen and nitrogen as examples. Only the experimental techniques are discussed in this paper; the detailed results follow in a separate paper.


The equilibrium constants of gas-phase complexes of HF with dimethyl, methyl ethyl and diethyl ether have been measured at several temperatures using the Benesi-Hildebrand approximation on the absorption band of the HF stretching vibration in the complex. From these, values of Δ H of — 43, — 38 and — 30 kJ mol -1 respectively, have been determined. They are interpreted in terms of conformational rearrangements of the ethers when they form hydrogen bonds. The far infrared spectra of the complexes with both HF and DF have also been recorded and in each case a band observed at around 180 cm -1 which is assigned to the intermolecular stretching mode of vibration. For the complex between HF and dimethyl ether a rotational contour has been observed at about 10 cm -1 .

The theory of pressure-induced absorption of far infrared radiation by gases is extended to include the contribution of the dipole moment induced in a molecule by the field gradient due to its neighbours. This dipole is nonzero when the molecule lacks a centre of inversion, as in a tetrahedron. In the collision of two tetrahedra, the dipole induced in molecule 2 by the electric field of the octopole moment Ω1 of the partner leads to transitions in which ΔJ(1) = 0, ± 1, ±2, ±3, and ΔJ(2) = 0. The dipole induced by the field gradient of Ω1 leads to ΔJ(1) = 0, ±1, ±2, ±3, and ΔJ(2) = 0, ±1, ±2, ±3, and therefore gives a required increase in absorption at higher frequencies. The field-gradient contribution vanishes in a collision involving a tetrahedral and a spherical molecule. General expressions are given for the field-gradient contributions to the integrated intensity and to the −2 spectral moment.

The collision-induced absorption (CIA) spectrum for nitrogen has been measured in the spectral region below 360 cm−1 at 126, 149, 179, and 212 K. The measurements have been obtained using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) techniques, a far infrared (FIR) laser system operating at 84.2 and 15.1 cm−1, and microwave cavity techniques. The experimental line shapes have been compared with the theoretical predictions of Joslin, based on Mori theory, and of Joslin and Gray, based on information theory alone. The data have been used to determine the quadrupole moment employing various intermolecular potentials. One Lennard–Jones potential has resulted in a quadrupole moment of 1.51 B, the value that was used in generating the theoretical line shapes. These results, when combined with our forthcoming measurements on nitrogen mixed with methane and argon, may be helpful in determining the role of CIA in calculating the opacity of some planetary atmospheres.
