Introduction Resonant-Enhanced Multiphoton Ionization (REMPI) in dry atmospheric pressure air studied for possible low-jitter laser triggering of air spark gap switch Interesting REMPI phenomena observed in dry air at 1 atm – Strong REMPI signal with O 2 (C 3  ) Rydberg resonance – Strong N 2 + fluorescence at all REMPI transitions In this work, we characterize the O 2 (C 3 , v=2) state using both fluorescence and traditional REMPI spectra.

Previous work: O 2 REMPI with ultraviolet laser Laser Photons O 2 (X 3  g - ) O 2 + (X 2  g ) O 2 (C 3  g ) e-e- Ionization O( 1 D)+O( 3 P) 3g3g REMPI Band Corresponds to O 2 (C 3  g,v=2 → X 3  g - ) Two-Photon Resonant Intermediate R D Johnson, G R Long, and J W Hudgens. J. Chem. Phys., 87 (1987). Previous REMPI studies with O 2 (C 3  g ) intermediate found bands with very diffuse structure due to predissociation. Only the O 2 (C 3  g,v=2) state was rotationally resolved.

Previous Characterization of O 2 (C 3  g,v=2) State Lewis et. al (1999) analyzed O 2 REMPI spectra from Sur et. al (1986) and Ogorzalek-Loo (1989, unpublished) and derived spectroscopic constants for the F1, F2, and F3 sublevels of O 2 (C 3  g,v=2).
