The absorption spectrum of the SrLi molecule from the ground X2Σ+ state to the excited (2)2Σ+ state is simulated with molecular rotation and vibration taken into account. By taking 84Sr6Li as an example, the spectra at three different temperatures T = 1, 10 and 100 K are obtained. The absorption spectrum from the initial vibrational level v = 0 of X2Σ+ to the vibrational levels v′= 0–7 of (2)2Σ+ covers the range from 8400 to 10,200 cm−1. The absorption peak corresponds to the transition v = 0 → v′= 1, of which the rotational quantum number J′ of the excited state has been determined in detail for the P and R branches. The band head occurs in R branch for T = 10 and 100 K, corresponding to the excitation to the rotational levels J′ = 5 ~ 8. Additionally, the spectra for six combinations of the isotopes (84Sr/85Sr/88Sr and 6Li/7Li) have been compared. Due to the isotope effect, for transitions to v′≥ 1, the corresponding spectral bands gradually separate into two classes, of which the spectral bands for xSr7Li are energetically lower than those for xSr6Li (x = 84, 85, 88).
