Abstract
The F2 laser emission in Ne matrices at 160.6 nm is reported for the f irst time. Its excitation spectrum in the 11-16 eV range has been reco rded by means of tunable synchrotron radiation. Anomalous envelopes of vibrational progressions occurring in the gas phase due to avoided cr ossings of ion-pair 1SIGMA(u)+ states and Rydberg 1SIGMA(u)+ states ar e shown to disappear in Ne matrices. The matrix spectra are discussed in terms of a deperturbed C1SIGMA(u)+ ion-pair state and strongly blue -shifted I1SIGMA(u)+ and H1PI(u) Rydberg states.
