Short-wavelength infrared line emission in a laser-produced oxygen plasma

We report first observations of infrared line emission from high-lying oxygen atom states produced in a in a laser-genarated oxygen plasma. Time resolved visible emission studies provide information on the temporal behavior of the atomic infrared- emitting states. The relative populations of the obs...

Description
Summary:We report first observations of infrared line emission from high-lying oxygen atom states produced in a in a laser-genarated oxygen plasma. Time resolved visible emission studies provide information on the temporal behavior of the atomic infrared- emitting states. The relative populations of the observed O-atom n = 4 states are discussed in light of infrared oscillator strengths calculated according to the Coulomb approximation.
