Ionisation NITROGEN-IONISATION 15.60 eV
Note
The lowest triplet A\<SUP\>3\</SUP\>\&Sigma; level at 6.2\&nbsp;eV is metastable with a long life. The level can not be quenched by Penning transfer in most of the typical quenchers. So it floats around the chamber as an excited neutral and, on collision with a metal or insulating surface, will remove an electron into the gas and de-excite. The resultant electron current is not time-correlated with the production mechanism since the motion of the neutral excited nitrogen is very slow and can occur many milliseconds or seconds later.
