Abstract
Green chemiluminescence peaking at 505 nm is observed when heated SnBr 2 vapor is mixed with an activated nitrogen flow produced by microwave discharge. The dependence of the chemiluminescence on the vapor injec tor temperature suggests that the green chemiluminescence emitter is v aporized SnBr2. Evidence is presented which indicates that the excitat ion of SnBr2 occurs by energy transfer from the N-2(A(3) Sigma(u)(+)) state in the nitrogen glow.
