Abstract: | This study reports on photochemical interferences affecting atomic oxygen detection using two-photon laser-induced fluorescence
at 226 nm. In contrast to previous studies in which molecular oxygen was proven to be the relevant photochemical precursor
molecule in a hydrogen-fueled flame, the present investigations were carried out in a laminar diffusion flame of methane and
air. The most significant interferences were found at the fuel side of the flame in the absence of molecular oxygen, and vibrationally
excited carbon dioxide was identified as the most probable precursor molecule for the photochemical production of oxygen atoms.
