Abstract

Optics Physical Sciences Science & Technology Spectroscopy Technology
We determined the effective line strengths of the trans conformer of nitrous acid (HONO) near 1275 cm(-1) (R-branch of nu(3) mode, N-O-H bend) and of the cis conformer at 1660 cm(-1) (R-branch of nu(2) mode, N = 0 stretch), both at a spectral resolution of 0.001 cm(-1) by tunable infrared laser differential absorption spectroscopy (TILDAS) utilizing continuous-wave quantum cascade (cw-QC) lasers. Absorbance of one conformer was measured while simultaneously quantifying the mixing ratio of total HONO by catalytic conversion to nitric oxide (NO) followed by calibrated absorption spectroscopy. Line strengths obtained here are consistent with previously reported band strengths for the trans conformer but are lower by a factor of approximately 2.4 for the cis conformer.
