Abstract

The photodissociation dynamics of the CFBr radical, producing ground state CV (²π) and Br (²P), has been examined using state-to-state photochemical techniques. The precursor, HFBr₂, was pyrolysed to obtain CFBr using a pyrolysis nozzle heated to approximately 1000 K. The resultant CFBr was then cooled in a supersonic expansion prior to dissociation.
