MEASUREMENT OF SPONTANEOUS EMISSION BRANCHING RATIOS IN MO(I) TRANSITIONS BY LASER-INDUCED SENSITIZED FLUORESCENCE

I. TNTRODUCTIONThe emission spectroscopic method is usually used to measure spontaneous emission branching ratios. As emission spectra cannot be detected in atomic beams, the laser-induced fluorescence or ion detection method is often used. When the fluorescence method is used to measure branching ratios, it is usually necessary to detect
