Abstract
Approximate semiclassical solutions are developed for a system of a Morse oscillator coupled to a harmonic oscillator via a nonlinear perturbation. This system serves as a model for the interaction of an excited stretching mode with a bending mode in a polyatomic molecule. Three semiclassical methods are used to treat this model. In particular, a matrix diagonalization, a two‐state model, and a uniform semiclassical approximation (USC) based on Mathieu functions are each used to determine the splittings and state mixing involved in these stretch–bend Fermi resonances. For small perturbations, approximate analytic semiclassical expressions are obtained for the system treated. These analytic expressions are given for the splittings using a two‐state or USC method and for the overlaps of the zeroth order states with the eigenstates of the molecule using a USC method.
