Determination of Nascent H₂ Rovibrational Distributions by Laser Induced Fluorescence: Applications to Formaldehyde Photodissociation and Hydrogen Exchange Reactions
<p>Individual quantum states of H₂ have been detected using the technique of Laser Induced Fluorescence. This technique is extremely sensitive, with a detection sensitivity of 6 x 10⁸ states cm⁻³ in a probed volume of 0.029 cm³ with a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. This technique is also accurate...
