Abstract
Fluorescence excitation spectra of CF4 and CF3Br have been measured in the range 45–95 nm and 50–140 nm respectively using synchrotron radiation. Both resonant and non-resonant peaks are observed, corresponding to neutral fragment (e.g. CF3) and parent ion (e.g. CF+4) emission. Analysis of the fluorescence has shown that bands from CF4 are due to CF*3, CF2 Ã1B1 and CF+4 C̃ 2T2. Bands from CF3Br are due to CF*3, CF2 Ã 1B1 and possibly CF3Br+ Ẽ 2A1. The radiative lifetimes of all the fluorescing bands have been measured. Some of the CF3Br bands show bi-exponential behaviour. These results are interpreted by comparison with previous photoabsorption and electron energy loss spectra.
