Observation of ionic excimer states in the alkali halides

Abstract: Ionic excimers, which are isoelectronic to the rare gas halides, are investigated. In a charge transfer reaction of He+ or Ne+ ions to CsF and RbF, continua in the VUV at 184.5 and 131 nm, respectively, have been observed, which show the same properties as the analogous transitions in the rare gas fluorides. The results are compared with predictions by a Rittner model. In KF a transition at 143 nm was observed which could be assigned to the transition of KF+→K+F.

“…It was shown that the exciplex states B 2 1/2 and X 2 1/2 can be effectively populated via host excitons resulting in B 2 1/2 → X 2 1/2 emission bands at 196.5 and 211.2 nm in Ne and Ar matrices, respectively. The spectra indicated a red shift in energy of 0.4-0.8 eV compared with the gas phase results [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] due to the dielectric interaction with the host. An emission band at 227 nm for CsF in a Ne matrix was assigned to the C 2 1/2 → A 2 1/2 transition, too.…”

“…VUV and XUV transitions have already been observed for the excimers of the alkalihalide ions which are isoelectronic to the neutral rare-gas halides. [13][14][15]36 VUV/XUV emissions can also be expected from ionic rare-gas alkali excimers which are isoelectronic to the rare-gas dimers. 46 The upper state is an ionic molecule fovmed by combining a rare-gas ion Rg with a ground state alkali atom A.…”
