The first high-resolution absorption spectrum of the 5ν3 band of the 14N16O2 molecule at 7766.071 cmâ1 was recorded by high sensitivity CW-Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy between 7674 and 7795 cmâ1. The noise equivalent absorption of the recordings was αminâ1Ã10â10 cmâ1. The assignments involve energy levels of the (0,0,5) vibrational state with rotational quantum numbers up to Ka=9 and N=47. The set of the spin-rotation energy levels were reproduced within their experimental uncertainty using a theoretical model, which takes explicitly into account the Coriolis interactions between the spin rotational levels of the (0,0,5) vibrational state and those of the (0,2,4) dark state together with the electron spin-rotation resonances within the (0,0,5) and (0,2,4) states. Precise values were determined for the (0,0,5) vibrational energy rotational, spin-rotational constants and for the (0,2,4)â(0,0,5) coupling constants. In addition the (0,2,4) rotational and spin-rotational constants were estimated. Using these parameters and the value of the transition dipole moment operator determined from a fit of a selection of experimental line intensities, the synthetic spectrum of the 5ν3 band was generated and is provided as Supplementary material.
