Abstract
Electronic quenching of the v‘ = 0 and 1 vibrational levels and v‘ = 1 → v‘ = 0 vibrational energy transfer has been studied at room temperature for the A2Σ+ electronic state of the CF radical. The colliders investigated were He, Ar, H2, N2, CH4, O2, CO, C3H8, and CF4. Room-temperature thermal rate constants were determined. With the exception of CF4, the quenching rate constants were significant for all molecular colliders. Vibrational energy transfer within the A2Σ+ state was observed only for the CH4 collision partner.
