Abstract
The argon matrix Raman spectra of oxygen difluoride and oxygen-18 difluoride at $16^{\circ} K$ have been observed; frequencies within $1 cm^{-1}$ of analogous infrared studies were measured. Laser photodetachment of fluorine atoms has provided significant yields of the OF and $^{18}OF$ free radicals; the Raman observations confirm the earlier infrared work. Temperature cycling operations and depolarization ratio measurements provide aid in identifying new chemical species and making vibrational assignments.
