The relative quantum yields, [Formula: see text] for the production of I*(2Pl/2) at 266, 280, and ∼305 nm are reported for a series of primary alkyl iodides using the technique of two-photon laser-induced fluorescence for the detection of I(2P3/2) and I*(2P1/2) atoms. Results are analyzed by invoking the impulsive energy disposal model, which summarizes the dynamics of dissociation as a single parameter. Comparison of our data with those calculated by a more sophisticated time-dependent quantum mechanical model is also made. Near the red edge of the alkyl iodide A band, absorption contribution from the 3Q1 state is important and the dynamics near the 3Q0−1Q1 curve-crossing region seem to be influenced by the kinematics of the dissociation process.

The mechanism of the HgH A22Π3/2 → X2Σ+ emission detected in the Hg(63P0) photosensitized decomposition of H2 and some of the lower alkanes, RH, was investigated. It was concluded that ground state HgH was formed in the primary process Hg(63P0) + RH(or H2) → HgH(X2Σ+) + R(or H). The HgH A22Π3/2 → X2Σ+ emission and presumably the A12Π1/2 → X2Σ+ and B2Σ+ → X2Σ+ emission, also observed in the above systems, result from secondary excitation of ground state HgH on collision with Hg(63P0). Studies of the emission made possible the estimation of relative quantum yields for the above primary process.
