COLLISION BROADENING OF OH EMISSION LINES, MEASURED IN THE INFRARED,

Abstract

The OH emission spectrum from an H2/O2 flame was recorded in the infrared, for the (1-0) vibrational transition of the ground 2 pi sub i state. The spectral region covered was 3.18 to 3.65 microns (four lines each for P(10) to P(18)). Use of a high resolution spectrometer with a slit-width (full width at half maximum) of 0.06 to 0.04/cm allowed the direct estimation of linewidths, which were found to range from 0.11/cm for the P(10) lines to 0.08/cm for the P(18) lines. A discussion is included of the implications of the observed collisional line widths. (Author)
