A detailed study of the OH stretching vibration of the hydrogen peroxide molecule was conducted covering the wavelength region from 3410 cm('-1) to 3794 cm('-1). Five data runs using 98% pure hydrogen peroxide were made, one of them of low intensity. Three calibration runs using 90% pure H(,2)O(,2) were carried out thus introducing water as a calibrant. In addition several runs were made with slightly heated or slightly cooled H(,2)O(,2) to enhance certain vibrational states. / Analysis of the data allowed extension of the series assignments for the perpendicular n = 0(--->)0' transitions to higher J values. New assignments were made for the P and R branches of the perpendicular n = 1(--->)1' transition. In addition tentative assignments were made for a few series belonging to the perpendicular n = 2(--->)2' transition and to parallel transitions identified in the band center region. Additional series were seen but were not identified though some may belong to the symmetric OH stretch vibration. / Assignments of series allowed the calculation of a more accurate set of values for the ground state and first excited state parameters. A hindering potential for the excited state was established with values for the cis barrier, trans barrier, and (zeta)(,o) of 2480.45 cm('-1), 426.77 cm('-1), and 108.808(DEGREES), respectively.(' ) / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 46-01, Section: B, page: 0209. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1984.
