Vacuum ultraviolet spectra of heteronuclear dimers of inert gases in a direct-current discharge
Abstract
The emission bands appearing near the resonance lines of Kr and Xe in the spectra of the gas-discharge plasma of binary Xe-X and Kr-Y mixtures (X is He, Ne, Ar, or Kr; Y is He, Ne, or Ar) are experimentally studied. It is concluded that the emission bands investigated are related to electronic transitions in hetero-nuclear dimers. The mechanisms of formation of the spectra under study are analyzed.
