VPL Molecular Spectra Search Engine

This Virtual Planetary Laboratory tool is a search engine that queries the molecular spectroscopic database HITRAN 2020 and displays plots of line intensity versus wavelength for a specific molecule within a user specified wide wavelength range. For further details please see the documentation. For other related search engines please see the VPL Molecular Spectra Search Engine.

Choose a wavelength range:

wavelength range in micrometer units (between 0.1 µ m and 100 µ m)
wavelength_low: µ m
wavelength_high: µ m

Choose a molecule:




Please press the findplots button only once.
It can take a few minutes to make the plots.
If the plot does not appear in ten minutes or returns a timeout then please choose a narrower wavelength range.

The plots are for the most abundant isotopologue.
