V.—The Ionisation of Iodine Vapour by Ultra-Violet Light
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2014
Extract
The ionisation of iodine vapour by light has been sought by several investigators with negative results. Nevertheless, the application of the quantum theory, which has proved so fruitful with respect to the relation between electron impact on gaseous molecules and the emission of light, leads to the expectation that the ionisation of a gas should be affected by light of sufficiently short wave-length. This ionisation was first observed by Lenard, who investigated the effect of light in the extreme ultra-violet on air and other gases.
