O(1S) yield from O3 photodissociation at 1700–2400 Å

Abstract: The O(1S) yield from O3 photodissociation is measured in the 1700–2400 Å region using synchrotron radiation as a light source. An upper limit for the yield is set at 0.1% for the entire photon energy range. This small quantum yield indicates that the contribution of O(1S) to atmospheric OH production is not significant.

“…From the comparison of signal intensities at the two photolysis wavelengths, we obtained the quantum yield values for O( 3 P ) formation in the photodissociation of O 3 , using the following expression: where Φ 3P (λ) is the O( 3 P ) quantum yield at a photolysis wavelength λ , S(λ) is the LIF intensity which is corrected by intensity variation of the VUV probe laser, I(λ) is the photon flux of the UV photolysis laser, σ(λ) is the O 3 absorption cross section reported by Malicet et al [1995], and Φ 3P (308) is the quantum yield for O( 3 P ) formation at 308 nm (0.21). The O( 1 D ) quantum yield as a function of wavelength is given by: At the photolysis wavelengths shorter than 237 nm, the formation of O( 1 S ) is energetically possible [ Okabe , 1978]: However, the dissociation process is spin‐forbidden and the upper limit for the O( 1 S ) quantum yield has been reported to be 0.1% between 170 and 240 nm [ Lee et al , 1980]. It is thus reasonable to ignore the contribution of the process between 230 and 237 nm.…”

“…The further improvements seen in the 2step_UVO2min and 4step_UVO1min samples may be ascribed, respectively, to a greater removal of oxygen vacancy defects under prolonged UVO annealing time and a more efficient removal of oxygen vacancy defects by UVO annealing from a thinner high-κ layer (since UVO anneal only affects the surface region of the high-κ [77]). The following mechanism is thought to be dominant in the photolysis of ozone [156].…”
