Abstract
CW dye laser induced fluorescence emission and thermal emission spectra of YO-molecules in a 1 atm H 2O 2Ar flame of 2430 K were recorded simultaneously. Narrow band laser excitation was applied to four rotational lines in the (1, 1) Q-branch of the A 2Π 3 2 → X 2Σ + transition and broadband excitation was applied to several separate Q-branches of the A 2Π 1 2 , 3 2 → X 2Σ + transitions. From the differences between the fluorescence emission spectra and thermal emission spectra, we conclude that collisional de-excitation of an excited vibronic level takes place by vibrational relaxation, decay to the electronic ground state and by intermultiplet transfer in order of increasing probability.
