Abstract

Numerical modeling of the first positive system of N2 (B3Πg-A3Σu+ has been applied to analyze the plasma-induced emission and the laser-induced fluorescence spectra of the He-N2 rf discharge. Information is obtained on the rotational temperature by fitting partially resolved/unresolved single vibronic handv, and a vibrational analysis is made by fitting any sequence and the laser-induced fluorescence spectm analysis in both excitation and fluorescence scans. This technique is currently being used to analyze the first positive system spectra in the energy transfer phenomena study of the He-N2 rf pulsed discharge.
