Abstract
Diatomic molecules such as C2, CN, CH, NO and OH are frequently used in combustion diagnostics.1–3 Fluorescence from several of these molecules has been observed in laser-induced breakdown in various gases and previously reported.4,5 Laser induced breakdown in gases is an alternative means by which excited state diatomic molecules can be produced at high temperature - on the order of 5000 K.
