The Measurement of Quenching Rate Constants Using Fluorscence Emission.

Abstract

A single counting technique is employed to measure the effective lifetime of excited NO2. These data are necessary for measurements of quenching rate constants of Ar, He and N2. A tuneable dye laser is used to raise the N02 to an excited electronic level. The N02 is held at a constant millitorr pressure while the foreign gas (Ar, He, N2) pressure is varied. The results are compared to another investigator. (Author)
