Ultraviolet Emission Spectra of Electron-Excited Solid and Liquid Neon

R. E. Packard, Frederick Reif, Clifford M. Surko

Open publisher page 48 citations

Abstract

The electron-excited emission spectrum of solid neon is found to be unique among the condensed rare gases in exhibiting a narrow atomiclike exciton line (located at 743 \AA{}A) In addition, the spectra of both solid and liquid neon show broad lines, probably attributable to radiation from ${\mathrm{Ne}}_{2}$ molecules
