Spectral-kinetic characteristics of luminescence of pentaerythritol tetranitrate with inclusions of iron nanoparticles upon explosion induced by laser pulses

详细

Spectral-kinetic characteristics of luminescence of tetranitropentaeritrite with inclusions of iron nanoparticles upon an explosion induced by laser pulses are measured with high temporal resolution. It is shown that the luminescence occurring during exposure to the laser pulse is a result of initiating a chemical reaction in tetranitropentaeritrite and is chemiluminescence. The glow is presumably associated with the excited nitrogen dioxide, NO₂, which is formed by the rupture of O–NO₂ bond in the tetranitropentaeritrite molecule.
