Metal-atom fluorescence from the quenching of metastable rare gases by metal carbonyls
Abstract
A flowing afterglow apparatus was used to study the metal fluorescence resulting from the quenching of metastable rare gas states by metal carbonyls. The data from the quenching of argon, neon, and helium by iron and nickel carbonyl agreed well with a restricted degree of freedom model indicating a concerted bond breaking dissociation.
