FORMATION AND REACTIONS OF THE EXCITED O2(A3&U(+)) MOLECULES,
Abstract
The emission of the Herzberg bands can be readily observed in the laboratory by catalyzing the recombination of oxygen atoms on nickel. In a clean system the ozone concentration may increase due to the reaction with oxygen (O2A3&u(+) + O2 yields O3+O). Addition of a few 0/0 hydrogen results in a strong OH emission (2&(+) yields 2II) apparently due to the reaction O3A3&u(+) + H2 yields OH + OH2&(+). Addition of NO give a characteristic reddish hue to the emission. The surface catalysis also was apparent in several glass systems. (Author)
