Abstract: | The emission spectrum of the dicyanoacetylene radical cation has been observed in the 580–720 nm wavelength region as a result of low energy electron impact excitation in a crossed-beam arrangement. The band system is attributed to the Ã2Σ+g → X?2Πu electronic transition by comparison with the photoelectron spectroscopic and calculated data on the states of dicyanoacetylene cation. The frequencies of the three Σ+g vibrational fundamentals in the ground cation state have been deduced from the emission spectrum. The lifetime of the lowest vibrational level of the Ã2Σ+g state of dicyanoacetylene cation was determined to be 13 ± 2 ns. Emission could not be detected from the corresponding states, Ã2Σ+, of fluorocyanoacetylene and cyanoacetylene cations, and these results are discussed. |
