- Analysis of the photon absorption spectrum of a diatomic molecule shows that the vibrational energy levels for small values of n are very nearly equally spaced but the levels for large n are not equally spaced. Discuss the reason for this observation. Do you expect the adjacent levels to move closer together or farther apart as n increases? Explain.arrow_forwardThe internal quantum efficiency is 0.65 for a 500μm long InP cavity laser having a reflectivity of 0.29 on both ends. Compute the slope quantum efficiency if the effective absorption coefficient is 10 cm-1 .arrow_forwardHowever, the molecule we can encounter everyday continuously vibrates and interact with the surrounding causing its bond vector to vary slightly. According to a new spectroscopy analysis, the adjacent bond vectors was found to be A = 0.82i + 0.99j + 0.84k B = 1.09i + -1.01j + -0.97k What is the angle (in degrees) between the bonds based on this new data?arrow_forward
