Oscillator strength and cross section study of the valence-shell excitations of NO2 by fast electron scattering

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/acf5d6

Abstract Oscillator strengths and cross sections of the valence-shell excitations in NO₂ are of great significance in testing the theoretical calculations and monitoring the state of the ozone layer in the earth's atmosphere. In the present work, the generalized oscillator strengths of the valence-shell excitations in NO₂ were obtained based on the fast electron scattering technique at an incident electron energy of 1.5 keV and an energy resolution of about 70 meV. By extrapolating the generalized oscillator strengths to the limit of a zero squared momentum transfer, the optical oscillator strengths for the dipole-allowed transitions have been obtained, which provide an independent cross check to the previous experimental results. Based on the BE-scaling method, the corresponding integral cross sections have also been derived systematically from the excitation threshold to 5000 eV. The present dynamic parameters can provide the fundamental spectroscopic data of NO₂ and have important applications in the studies of atmospheric science. The datasets presented in this paper, including the GOSs, OOSs and ICSs, are openly available at https://doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00113.00156.
