Dissociative excitation of CF4 by electron impact has been studied under single-collision conditions for incident energies up to 600 eV. The emission spectrum in the range 50–130 nm shows many features arising from neutral and singly ionized fluorine and carbon fragments. Absolute cross sections for the observed features were measured at 200 eV incident energy, while the excitation functions of the most intense emissions were studied over the whole energy range. Cascade was shown to be the dominant excitation mechanism for some of these features.

Dissociative excitation of SF6 by electron impact has been studied under single-collision conditions for incident energies up to 600 eV. The emission spectrum in the spectral range 450–1850 Å shows many features arising from neutral and singly ionized fluorine and sulphur fragments. Absolute cross sections for many of the emissions were measured, and excitation functions and appearance potentials were determined for selected features from each of the four systems. The largest cross sections were found for the FI transitions at 955 Å (2.3 × 10−18 cm2) and 975 Å (1.7 × 10−18 cm2).

We have studied the excitation of metastable O(1D) following dissociative excitation of CO2 in the electron impact energy range from threshold to 400 eV. A solid Ne matrix at ∼20 K forms the heart of the detector. This is sensitive to the metastable species through the formation of excited excimers (NeO*), The resultant excimer radiation is readily detected, providing a means of measuring the production of the metastables. Using a pulsed electron beam and time-of-flight techniques, we have measured the O(1D) kinetic energy spectrum and its relative production cross sections as a function of electron impact energy. Threshold energy data are used to gain information about the excitation channels involved. In addition, an emission excitation function for the red photons, emitted in coincidence with the exciting electron pulse, has been measured in the 0–400 eV energy range.

The dissociative excitation of CF3H by electron impact has been studied under single collision conditions for incident energies up to 600 eV. The emission spectrum in the wavelength range 50–130 nm shows many features arising from neutral and singly ionized fluorine and carbon fragments, as well as from neutral hydrogen atoms. Absolute cross sections for the observed features were measured at 200 eV incident energy, while the excitation functions of the most intense emissions were studied over the whole energy range. The threshold excitation of the hydrogen Lyman α line displays onsets at 18.4 and 34.0 eV, while that of the fluorine F I 95.5 nm feature shows only one onset at 33.0 eV. Possible dissociation channels are discussed.

We have studied the Lyman [Formula: see text] and Werner [Formula: see text] band emissions produced by 20–500-eV electrons incident on molecular deuterium, D2. Emission cross sections of (3.7 ± 0.9) × 10−17 cm2 for the B → X and (3.54 ± 0.74) × 10−17 cm2 for the C → X system have been determined at 100-eV impact energy. Cascading did not play an important role in the [Formula: see text] emission, but it was shown to affect the [Formula: see text] emission seriously, particularly for impact energies below 50 eV. We estimate the cross section for direct excitation of the [Formula: see text] state and the cascade cross section to be 2.95 × 10−17 and 0.75 × 10−17 cm2, at 100 eV respectively. The cascade cross section is 20 ± 10% of the total B → X emission cross section, and is essentially constant in the energy range 300–50 eV, but increases significantly for lower impact energies, e.g., to 40 ± 15% at 27.5 eV. The cross section for the atomic 2p → 1s Lyman α emission from D2 has also been measured and the value of 1.00 × 10−17 cm2 at 100 eV is 20% smaller than the cross section for Lyman α emission from H2.

We present cross-section calculations for excitation of singly-ionized barium ions by electron impact over the energy range from 3 to 100 eV. The cross sections were evaluated using Burgess' semiclassical method. Finally, our predictions are compared with two other current techniques and some recent experimental measurements. The agreement was found to be good.
