The application of the matrix isolation technique to the study of the sputtering process is reported. Equations are derived which relate the experimentally measured absorbance data to the sputtering yield. These equations are applied to data from the sputtering of Nb metal by 50 keV rare gas ions. Relative sputtering yields obtained in this manner are in good agreement with sputtering yields obtained by weight loss measurements. The potential of the technique for studies of both physical and chemical sputtering and for the determination of oscillator strengths is discussed.

The exciton model developed in an earlier paper is applied quantitatively to a description of the excited states of representative members of the helium isoelectronic series; viz. H-, He, Li+,Be2+ and Ne8+. The energies of the eight lowest excited states are in good agreement with experiment, for a relatively small (1s-4p) hydrogenic basis; the ground state is obtained with slightly less precision. Response properties including oscillator strengths, polarizabilities and dispersion interaction coefficients are also calculated. The method appears to be quantitatively sound, and, above all, leads to particularly simple interpretations of the wave functions and the energies.
