Formation and quenching kinetics of electron beam excited Xe2Br*
- 1. Department of Electrical Engineering and Rice Quantum Institute, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77251
Description
Formation and quenching processes, as well as the optical emission characteristics of Xe2Br*, centered at 440 +- 30 nm were investigated for electron beam pumped mixtures of argon, xenon, and several different bromine donors. Three-body collisional quenching of XeBr* was identified as the primary formation mechanism for the triatomic species. Quenching rates for Xe2Br* and XeBr* were measured and the Xe2Br* radiative lifetime was determined to be 245 +- 30 ns
