Extinction coefficients of NO2 and N2O4

The extinction coefficient of NO2 has been measured in the spectral range from 185 to 410 nm as a function of temperature between 235 and 298 K. In order to correct for the effect of dimer absorption, the extinction coefficient of N2O4 has also been measured. The effect of a decrease in temperature on NO2 absorption is a reduction in the extinction coefficient of approximately 10% in the range from 320 to 380 nm.
