THE ABSOLUTE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY OF SODIUM SALICYLATE EXCITED BY EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT.

Abstract

The absolute quantum efficiency of aged sodium salicylate was measured at selected wavelengths in the extreme ultraviolet. The quantum efficiency was found to be of the order of 42% to 48% at the shorter wavelengths and about 80% at 1216A. The excitation spectrum agrees qualitatively with relative excitation spectra determined by other investigators. The significance of the measurements is discussed in the light of present knowledge of the physical processes responsible for the luminescence. (See also AD-427 095). (Author)
