The Kinetics and Dynamics of Iodine Monofluoride Formation in Gas-Phase Collisions

Abstract

The production of IF(B) in gas phase collisions of fluorine atoms with various organic and inorganic iodides has been investigated to determine methods of efficient production. The key role of electronically excited iodine atoms has been identified. Excimer laser photolysis of mixtures of molecular fluorine and organic iodides is shown to yield high pulse intensities of IF(B). Chemical Laser, Iodine Monofluoride, Chemiluminescence.
