The absolute fluorescence excitation function of the NI 1200-A emission through photoexcitation of N2 has been measured in the 250-620 A region using synchrotron radiation as the continuous tunable light source. The dissociative photoionization excitation of N2 involving the production of NI 1200-A emission and N(+) ion has also been studied at several selected photon wavelengths shortward of 360 A using a coincidence technique to detect the NI 1200-A fluorescence photon and the N(+) ion. The maximum quantum yields for producing these processes are of the order of 6 x 10(exp -2). It was found that dissociative excitation processes can be competitive with the dissociative ionization excitation processes for the multiple-electron transition states. The present results suggest that the electronic states of N2 in the 320-340 A region consist of both ion states of N2(+) (Langhoff et al., 1981) and neutral states of N2, which could be the Rydberg states converging to N2(++) (Sambe and Ramaker, 1986).
