Spectra of the lowest 1B2 state of H2O and D2O have been recorded. The state is linear in its equilibrium geometry and has a bond length of 1.02 Å. The spectra exhibit vibrational bending progressions and are rotationally resolved. They were recorded from energies of 80 000 to 90 000 cm−1 via two-photon, laser-induced flourescence (LIF) and 2+1 multiphoton ionization (MPI).
