Abstract
Electron impact excited emission spectra of the dihalogenoacetylene radical cations, X—CC—X+, with X = Cl, Br, I, in the gaseous phase are presented. The band systems extend in the 360–860 nm wavelength region and are identified as the A2ΠΩ,g→X2ΠΩ,u electronic transitions of the dihalogenoacetylene cations from their photoelectron spectra. The vibrational and spin-orbit fine structure details of the emission and photoelectron spectra are compared. The decay of the A2ΠΩ,g states is found to be non-exponential although the long component is two orders of magnitude weaker than the short component. Time-resolved emission spectra and ancillary experiments indicate that both the decay components are of the A2ΠΩ,g states of the dihalogenoacetylene cations.
