Popis: NF 4 BF 4 has been irradiated with a low-power CO 2 laser to produce reactive species which then initiate reactions in an ambient NF 3 -H 2 mixture. The laser-induced decomposition of NF 4 BF 4 in vacuum was measured as a function of laser power and energy. The laser-induced decomposition threshold was determined to be 40 mJ, which corresponds to a laser fluence of 20 J/cm2. This same value was determined for the initiation threshold of NF 3 -H 2 reactions via CO 2 laser irradiation of NF 4 BF 4 . Visible and infrared emissions were observed from initiated NF 3 -H 2 mixtures. This radiative technique has attractive features for initiating reactions in solid-gas systems.
