science-softCon uv/vis+ spectra data base; www.uv-spectra.de; (C) science-softCon 2009 Substance: Trifluoromethane Other Names: fluoroform Formula: CF3H CAS-No.: 75-46-7 Study: emission and absorption spectrum Authors: M. Suto, L.C. Lee Title: Emission spectra of CF3 radicals. V. Photodissociation of CF3H, CF3Cl, and CF3Br by vacuum ultraviolet Journal/Source: J. Chem. Phys., 79, 1127-1133, (1983); DOI:10.1063/1.445914 Data: (diagram, table, disk): diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 106 - 155 nm Resolution: Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: Pressure: Comments: The absorption cross sections of CF3H, CF3Cl, and CF3Br and the fluorescence cross sections for their photofragments are measured in the 106-155 nm region using synchrotron radiation as a light source. The threshold wavelengths for producing the CF3 UV fluorescence from photodissociation of CF3X (X=H, Cl, and Br) are 113.0, 122.2, and 132.4 nm, respectively.
