Abstract
An experimental determination of the dipole moment using Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy (FTMW) in homogenous electric fields was conducted. Benzonitrile was co-expanded in 3.5 bar of Ne at a temperature of 300 K through a pulsed nozzle with a 0.8-mm orifice. The supersonic expansion was pulsed coaxially into the microwave resonator, which was specially developed to provide high sensitivity and resolution at low frequencies down to 2 GHz. Some of the lowest rotational transitions of benzonitrile in the range of 2.8-10.9 GHz were recorded with a linewidth (FWHM) of 2.5 kHz and a frequency accuracy of 500 Hz. Homogeneous electric fields for the Stark-shift measurements were provided by the Coaxially Aligned Electrodes for Stark effect Applied in Resonators (CAESAR) setup where electric field strengths up to 203 V/cm could be reached. The value of the dipole moment of benzonitrile was determined precisely to μa = 4.5152(68) D from Stark-shift measurements.
