Abstract
WE report evidence that suggests that narrow-line spectra can be obtained for many organic compounds without the difficulties commonly found with traditional mixed-crystal line-narrowing techniques. Furthermore, our findings suggest a new method by which low temperature line-broadening mechanisms may be studied.
