Abstract
A new broadband emission from electron beam excited high pressure Ar/F2 and Ar/NF3 mixtures at (435±50) nm is reported. This gas phase spectrum as well as a previously unassigned broadband emission at (455±55) nm observed in optically excited liquid Ar/F2 mixtures is assigned to the four-atomic rare gas halide exciplex Ar3F. Ar3F is produced by three-body collisions from Ar2F, but is easily destroyed by two-body collisions due to its small binding energy.Keywords
