O- formation from O-2 via Rydberg-Rydberg electron transfer
We report the first clear evidence of dissociative electron attachment involving electron capture by a Rydberg molecule from another Rydberg molecule. We observed the formation of O-from excimer-laser-irradiated O-2 in the presence of toluene (or benzene). Results indicate that O- is formed via electron capture by Rydberg states of O-2 molecules from high Rydberg states of the hydrocarbon molecules.
