Emission and ionization induced by focused KrF-laser irradiation of UF(6)

F B Wampler et al. Opt Lett. .

Abstract

Strong ultraviolet-visible emission and weak ionization are observed when room-temperature UF(6) is irradiated with a focused, 248-nm KrF laser. The emission consists of two temporally distinct decays, the longer-lived of which is quenched by Ar with a rate constant of 1.9 x 10(8) liters/mol-sec at 25 degrees C.
