Excited States of O2 Investigated by Measuring the Metastable O(1D) Atom
Abstract
The production of the O(1D) was employed to investigate the Rydberg states of O2 in the wavelength region 105-130 nm. Excited states of E and E'3Σu- and F and F' 3Πu were identified. Several bands of overlapping E and F states were also found. Excited states of O2 are strongly perturbed, as evident by their irregular vibrational spacing.
