Theoretical study on 2s2p^6np Rydberg states of Cu^19+ ion

We report on the calculations of transition wavelengths and weighted oscillator strengths for 2s22p^6 2s2p^6np (4 〈 n 〈 20) electric dipole (El) transitions of Cu^19+ ion. The flexible atomic code (FAC) has been adopted for the calculations. Comparisons are made with the experimental data available,...

Summary:We report on the calculations of transition wavelengths and weighted oscillator strengths for 2s22p^6 2s2p^6np (4 〈 n 〈 20) electric dipole (El) transitions of Cu^19+ ion. The flexible atomic code (FAC) has been adopted for the calculations. Comparisons are made with the experimental data available, showing that the present results for 4 〈 n 〈 6 are more accurate than the previous calculated values. Furthermore, combining the quantum defect theory (QDT) with the transition energies of 2s^22p^62s2p^6np, the quantum defects for 2s2p^6np Rydberg series of Cu^19+ ion are determined. In addition, the energies of any highly excited states (n 〉 20) for this series can be reliably predicted using the QDT and the given quantum defects. The ionization energies for Cu^19+ and Cu^20+ ions are also calculated and they excellently accord with previous experimental and calculated values.
