A high-spectral resolution laser-excited molecular fluorescence
system was developed that utilizes a pulsed supersonic expansion to
simplify the fluorescence excitation spectra of large, gas-phase
aromatic molecules diluted in an excess of a monatomic gas. A
microcomputer was used to control and synchronize the instrumental
components, which included a Chromatix CMX-4...
The hydroxide ion as a substitutional defect in KC1 can be photo-dissociated
at liquid nitrogen temperature by ultraviolet light. The
photochemistry of this system was investigated by EPR and optical absorption
methods. Theoretical calculations were also performed in an
investigation of the KC1:OH system.
The bleaching behavior of photochemically colored...
