An anharmonic oscillator is a system in which the restoring force is not exactly proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. Unlike the ideal harmonic oscillator, which follows Hooke's law and has equally spaced vibrational energy levels, an anharmonic oscillator more accurately represents the vibrations of real molecules. In molecular spectroscopy, the bond between two atoms behaves harmonically only for very small vibrations. As the bond stretches or compresses beyond this limit, the force constant changes, and the potential energy deviates from the parabolic shape of the harmonic oscillator. This behavior is commonly described
