A high resolution spectrum of the [18.6]3.5 X(1)4.5 band of UF was obtained using the laser ablation specrometer at Arizona State University (ASU). The rotational structure showed significant perturbations in the upper state. Examination of the Stark and Zeeman splittings of the lowest J lines in electric fields up to 3.4 kV/cm and a magnetic field of 1650 Gauss yielded permanent electric dipole moments, μe, of 1.99 and 1.87 Debye and magnetic g-factors, ge of 3.28 and 3.26 for the ground and excited states respectively. The above experimental results will be discussed in terms of the configurational composition of the ground and excited states and compared with recent theoretical calculationsa.
