Abstract

The emission spectrum of microwave-driven sulfur lamp was obtained by experimental measurement. The emission moment of S2 B3u-- X3g- and B″3IIu- X3g- electronic states and the Franck-Condon factors between their vibrational level were calculated by quantum ab initio method of multi-configuration quasi-degenerate perturbation theory and cc-pVQZ basic set, then, their emission spectra were derived. Absorption spectra of Sn (n=2-8) molecules were also calculated via time-dependent density functional theory. The emission spectrum and experimental one of S2 molecules were took step to compare and analyze. The results can be used to well explain the emission spectrum characteristic of the microwave-driven sulfur lamp. The theoretical simulation results can well guide the further experiments to fit better with sun's spectrum.
