Abstract

A detailed neutral kinetic scheme for the production and quenching of ArF* and Ar₂F* is provided from time-resolved and time-integrated spectra for proton-excited Ar-F₂ mixtures at various partial pressures. The mechanism for the production of Ar₂F* is concluded mainly from the three-body quenching of ArF* by argon. It is also found that the efficiency to produce ArF* by Ar₂* (1_u) with F₂ is comparable to Ar(³P ₂) colliding with F₂. The two-body quenching rate constants of ArF* and Ar₂F* by F₂, the three-body quenching rate constant of ArF* by Ar, and the radiative lifetime of Ar₂F* are also obtained. The mechanism of ion-ion recombination to produce ArF* is briefly discussed.
