THE 82S1/2→62D EXCITATION TRANSFER OF RUBIDIUM ATOMS INDUCED BY COLLISIONS WITH GROUND-STATE RUBIDIUM AND HYDROGEN MOLECULES

The processes of excitation transfer from the 8²S_1/2 state to the 6²D state of rubidium in Rb(8²S_1/2)-Rb(5²S_1/2) and Rb(8²S_1/2)-H₂ collisions have been studied experimentally. During irradiating the Rb vapor, mixed with H₂, by two light beams for selective stepwise excitation, the Rb 8²S_1/2→5²P_3/2 direct fluorescence and the Rb 6²D_3/2→5²P_1/2 sensitized fluorescence have been measured as a function of H₂ gas pressure. The measurements yielded the cross-sections σ(8²S_1/2→6²D) and σ^*(8²S_1/2→6²D) of Rb 8²S_1/2→6²D excitation tranfer induced by collisions with 5²S_1/2 atom and H₂ molecules respectively. The results are discussed in detail.

The optical-optical double resonant multiphoton ionization (OODR-MPI) technique and the fluorescent excitation spectroscopy technique have been applied to the study of the F′0⁺_u ion-pair state of iodine. This paper presents OODR-MPI spectrum and fluorescent excitation spectrum of I₂ in the region of 54000-55300cm^-1 by the three-photon resonant, two-photon ionization (1+2+2) and (1+(1+1)+2) processes.     

OPTICAL-OPTICAL DOUBLE-RESONANCE EXCITATION SPECTRA OF THE (6d)1Πg, (7d)1Πg HIGH-LYING RYDBERG STATES IN Na2

Two ¹Π_g states of Na₂ for v≤13 have been observed by using optical-optical double resonance (OODR) fluorescence excitation spectroscopy. The intermediate levels in B¹Π_u state are identified by the numerical calculations with the molec-ular constants for B¹Π_u←X¹Σ_g⁺ transitions and confirmed by the complemen-tary A¹Σ_g⁺←X¹Σ_g⁺ polarization spectra. Absolute vibrational numberings of the (6d)¹Π_g and (7d)¹Π_g states are determined by comparing the experimental OODR excitation intensities with the simulated Franck-Condon factors. The Dnnham coef-ficients and the Rydberg-Klein-Rees (RKR) potential energy curves of the (6d)¹Π_g, (7d)¹Π_g states are reported.

The lithium sodium borate glasses doped with Eu³⁺ ion are prepared using melt quenching technique, their structural and optical properties have been evaluated. The density of prepared glasses exhibits an inverse behavior to the molar volume ranging from 2.26 g/cm³ to 2.43 g/cm³ and 26.95 cm³ /mol to 26.20 cm³ /mol, respectively. The absence of sharp peaks in XRD patterns confirms the amorphous nature of the prepared glasses.

The most intense red luminescence is observed at 612 nm corresponding to ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transition under 390 nm laser excitations.     

FLUORESCENCE MECHANISMS OF Tm3+- AND Yb3+/Tm3+ DOPED AlF3-BASED FLUORIDE GLASS

A complete set of spectroscopic parameters, including Judd-Ofelt parameters, radiative transition probabilities, radiative lifetime, branching ratios and integrated absorption cross section, have been calculated for Tm³⁺- doped fluoroaluminate (AYF) glass, based on the measured absorption spectra. The mechanism of Tm³⁺→Tm³⁺ and Yb³⁺\Leftrightarrow Tm³⁺ energy transfers and fluorescence properties have been investigated in both Tm³⁺ single-doped and Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺ double-doped AYF glasses. The cross-relaxation process, ³F₄+³H₆→2³H₄, is proved, which makes the optimum Tm³⁺ concentration of 1.77μm fluorescence (³H₄→³H₆) much higher than 1.45μm fluorescence (³F₄→³3H₄) in Tm³⁺:AYF glasses. In Yb³⁺/Tm³⁺:AYF glasses, a stronger concentration quenching is found for the 476nm emission than that for the 797nm emission, and is discussed under the 970nm-excitation.     

高灵敏，高选择和可视化识别Hg2+的罗丹明turn-on型化学传感器

Two novel rhodamine-based fluorescence enhanced molecular probes (RA₁ and RA₂) were synthesized, which were both designed as comparative fluoroionophore and chromophore for the optical detection of Hg²⁺. The recognizing behaviors were investigated both experimentally and computationally. They exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for Hg²⁺ over other commonly coexistent metal ions in CH₃CN/H₂O (1:1, V/V) solution. Test shows that hydroxy benzene of rich electron was beneficial to the chelate of Hg²⁺ with sensors. The detection limit was measured to be at least 0.14 μmol/L. After addition of Hg²⁺, the color changed from colourless to pink, which was easily detected by the naked eye in both solution and hydrogel sensor.     

CuH分子A1∑+态的寿命和预解离研究

A combined cavity ringdown (CRD) and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopic study on the A¹∑⁺-X¹∑⁺ transition of CuH has been presented.The CuH molecule,as well as its deuterated isotopologue CuD,are produced in a supersonic jet expansion by discharging H₂(or D₂) and Ar gas mixtures using two copper needles.Different profiles of relative line intensities are observed between the measured LIF and CRD spectra,providing an experimental evidence for the predissociation behavior in the A¹∑⁺ state of CuH.The lifetimes of individual upper rotational levels are measured by LIF,in which the J''-dependent predissociation rates are obtained.Based on the previous theoretical calculations,a predissociation mechanism is concluded due to the strong spin-orbit coupling between the A¹∑⁺ state and the lowest-lying triplet ³∑⁺ state,and a tunneling effect may also be involved in the predissociation.Similar experiments are also performed for CuD,showing that the A¹∑⁺ state of CuD does not undergo a predissociation process.     

Solvent effects on the S0→S2 absorption spectra of β-carotene

Absorption spectra of β -carotene in 31 solvents are measured in ambient conditions. Solvent effects on the 0--0 band energy, the bandwidth, and the transition moment of the S₀ → S₂ transition are analysed. The discrepancies between published results of the solvent effects on the 0--0 band energy are explained by taking into account microscopic solute-solvent interactions. The contributions of polarity and polarizability of solvents to 0--0 band energy and bandwidth are quantitatively distinguished. The 0--0 transition energy of the S₂ state at the gas phase is predicted to locate between 23000 and 23600~cm^-1.     

UPCONVERSION FLUORESCENCE DYNAMICS OF Tm3+ IONS IN LiYF4 CRYSTAL

According to Judd-Ofelt parameter calculation and energy transfer theory, the cross-relaxation process of the Tm³⁺ ions is investigated. A four-level system of coupled rate equations is established to study the fluorescence dynamics of Tm³⁺ in LiYF₄ crystal. Attentions are focused on the upconversion luminescence ¹G₄→³H₆ (483.0 nm) in Tm³⁺:LiYF₄. The relationship between the avalanche properties (critical pump rate, fluorescence intensity and buildup time) originated by resonant excited state absorption and the doped Tm³⁺ concentration is discussed, and some useful conclusions are drawn.     

Investigation of the A2Σ- state of CuO by laser-induced fluorescence

The laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectrum of the A²Σ^－X²Π_3/2 transition of CuO in the 540－620nm region has been studied, where the CuO molecule was produced by using the technique of dc discharge reaction under a supersonic condition. We have recorded and rotationally analysed the 0－0, 1－0, 2－0 and 3－0 bands. The rotational constants of the upper state A²Σ^- were determined and vibrational constants improved. In addition, the lifetime measurement for the A²Σ^- state was carried out under the collision-free condition, and the lifetimes obtained are 469±2, 456±2, 488±3 and 490±4ns for v'=0, v'=1, v'=2 and v'=3 levels, respectively.     

Intense up-conversion emissions of Yb3+/Dy3+ co-doped Al2O3 nanopowders prepared by non-aqueous sol—gel method

Yb³⁺/Dy³⁺ co-doped Al₂O₃ nanopowders have been prepared by the non-aqueous sol-gel method and their up- conversion photoluminescence spectra are measured under excitation by 980-nm semiconductor laser. The results show that there are comparatively abundant spectra of up-conversion emissions centered at 378, 408, 527 and 543, and 663 nm, corresponding to ⁴G_9/2 → ⁶H_13/2, ⁴G_9/2 → ⁶H_11/2, ⁴I_15/2 → ⁶H_13/2, and ⁴F_9/2 → ⁶H_11/2 transitions of Dy³⁺, respectively. Two-photon and three-photon processes are involved in ultraviolet, violet, green, and red up-conversion emissions. The energy transition between Yb³⁺ and Dy³⁺ is discussed.     

二氧化碳分子离子经由Ã2Πu1/2电子态振动能级共振的光解动力学：一项时间切片离子速度成像技术研究

We report on the photodissociation dynamics of CO₂⁺ via its òΠ_u,1/2 state using the scheme of [1+1] photon excitation that is intermediated by the mode-selected òΠ_u,1/2( u1,u2,0) vibronic states. Photodissociation fragment exciation spectrum and images of photofragment CO⁺ have been measured to obtain reaction dynamics parameters such as the available energy and the average translational energy. Combining with the potential energy functions of CO₂⁺, the dissociation mechanism of CO₂⁺ is discussed. The conformational variation of CO₂⁺ from linear to bent on the photodissociation dynamics of CO₂⁺ is verified.     

SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION ON THE PROPERTIES OF VISIBLE AND NEAR INFRARED EMISSIONS IN Tm3+, Ho3+ Co-DOPED YVO4 CRYSTALS

With the help of absorption and fluorescence spectra, the spectroscopic properties of Tm³⁺, Ho³⁺:YVO₄ crystals have been investigated under different dopant concentrations. The absorption results show that the maximum absorption in the spectral range of currently available powerful laser diodes (LD) is at 796 nm, corresponding to the transition ³H₆→³H₄ of Tm³⁺ in the crystals. Upon the excitation with a LD at 808 nm, we have detected ten fluorescence bands in the spectral range spanning from visible to infrared. In visible region 4 upconversion bands have been observed centered at 475, 547, 660, and 701 nm. Discussions of the energy transfer processes suggest that cross relaxations and excited absorptions with the involvement of Tm^{3+ 3}F₄, ³H₅ and Ho^{3+ 7}I₅ states are responsible for the four upconversion emissions. Comprising the relative integrated intersities of 2 μm (Ho³⁺: ⁵I₇→⁵I₈) and 1.8 μm (Tm³⁺: ³F_4→³H₆) bands we have observed an efficient energy transfer from Tm³⁺ (³F₄) to Ho³⁺ (⁵I₇). Examination of the ratios of the intensity of 2 μm band to that of 1.8 μm band as a function of the ratios of Tm³⁺ concentration (c_Tm) to Ho³⁺ concentration (c_Ho) indicates that small concentration ratios (c_Tm/c_Ho) lead to high efficient energy transfers of Tm³⁺(³F₄)→Ho³⁺(⁵I₇).

This paper studies the upconversion luminescence phenomenon of the Ho,Yb co-doped oxyfluoride vitroceramics. There is one group of strong upconversion luminescence lines positioned at 536.5nm, 18639cm^-1; 540.5nm, 18501cm^-1; 544.0nm, 18399cm^-1, which is easily identified as the transitions of ⁵S₂→⁵I₈. There are other splendid upconversion luminescence lines, which are ⁵S₂→⁵I₇,⁵F₅→⁵I₈,⁵G₆→⁵I₈, (⁵G³G)₅ →⁵I₈,(³F³H⁵G)₄→⁵I₇,⁵G₄→⁵I₈ and (⁵G³H)₅→⁵I₈. It is also found that an interesting kind of upconversion cooperative radiation fluorescence comes from a kind of coupling state of clusters consisting of two Yb³⁺ ions.

All these results are in good agreement with the experimental data.     

Spectroscopic properties of Nd—doped phosphate glass with a high emission cross section

Neodymium doped phosphate glasses have been prepared by the semi-continuous melting technique. Their absorption and emission spectra have been recorded at room temperature. The Judd－Ofelt theory has been applied to evaluate the stimulated emission cross sections of ⁴F_3/2→⁴I_11/2 transition for Nd³⁺. The higher stimulated emission cross section, 4.0×10^-20cm², is obtained. The fluorescence decays of the ⁴F_3/2→⁴I_11/2 transition of Nd³⁺ are measured for the samples doped (0.7－10) wt% of Nd₂O₃ at room temperature. The concentration quenching of Nd-doped phosphate glass is mainly attributed to cross-relaxation and energy migration. The site-dependent properties of fluorescence spectra and the fluorescence lifetime of the Nd³⁺-doped phosphate glass (with 2.2wt%Nd₂O₃) are studied using laser-induced fluorescence line narrowing techniques, and the site-to-site variations of optical properties are observed at low temperature.     

异氰酸分子NH(a1Δ)+CO(X1Σ+)通道在193nm的离子成像光解动力学研究

The photodissociation dynamics of isocyanic acid (HNCO) has been studied by the timesliced velocity map ion imaging technique at 193 nm. The NH(a¹Δ) products were measured via (2+1) resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization. Images have been accumulated for the NH(a¹Δ) rotational states in the ground and vibrational excited state (v=0 and 1). The center-of-mass translational energy distribution derived from the NH(a¹Δ) images implies that the CO vibrational distributions are inverted for most of the measured ¹NH(v|j) internal states. The anisotropic product angular distribution observed indicates a rapid dissociation process for the N-C bond cleavage. A bimodal rotational state distribution of CO(v) has been observed, this result implies that isocyanic acid dissociates in the S₁ state in two different pathways.     

Influence of rotational excitation and collision energy on the stereo dynamics of the reaction： N（4S）＋H2 （v = 0, j = 0, 2, 5, 10） →NH（X3∑-）＋H

The N+H₂ reaction has attracted a great deal of attention from both the experimental and the theoretical community, and most of the attention has been paid to the first excited state N(²D) atoms in collisions with hydrogen molecules and the scalar properties of the reaction. In this paper, we study the stereo dynamical properties and calculate the reaction cross sections of the N(⁴S) + H₂ (v=0, j=0, 2, 5, 10) → NH(X³Σ^-) + H using the quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) method on an accurate NH₂ potential energy surface (PES) reported by Poveda and Varandas [Poveda L A and Varandas A J C 2005 Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 7 2867], in a collision energy range of 25 kcal·mol^-1-140 kcal·mol^-1. Results indicate that the reactant rotational excitation and initial collision energy both have a considerable influence on the distributions of the k-j′ correlation, the k-k′-j′ correlation and k-k′ correlation. The differential cross section is found to be sensitive to collision energy.     

OCS在217 nm的光解动力学研究

The S(¹D₂)+CO(X¹Σ⁺) product channel from photodissociation of OCS at 217 nm has been measured using the DC slice velocity map imaging (VMI) technique in combination with resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI). Two diflerent REMPI intermediate states (¹F₃ and ¹P₁) and several pump-probe laser polarization geometries are used to detect the angular momentum polarization of the photofragmented S(¹D₂). The molecular- frame polarization parameters, as well as the laboratory-frame anisotropy parameters, for individual rotational states of co-fragment CO, are determined using two diflerent full quantum theories. The measured total kinetic energy release spectrum from photodissociation of OCS indicates two dissociation channels, corresponding to the fast and slow recoiling velocities of S(¹D₂), respectively. The slow channel is concluded to originate from an initial photoexcitation to the A(¹A'') state, followed by a non-adiabatic transition to the ground state. The fast channel is found to follow a coherent excitation to A(¹A'') and B(¹A'') states, where contributions of the two states are almost equal at 217 nm. The determined alignment and anisotropy parameters further indicate that the slow channel follows an incoherent excitation, while the fast channel follows a coherent excitation to A(¹A'') and B(¹A'') states with a phase di erence of π/2.
