Abstract
RECENT work on equilibria involving aluminium monohalides1 suggested that gaseous gallium and indium monofluorides might be formed by reaction of the metals with aluminium trifluoride. This has proved to be so, and we have been able to photograph the absorption spectrum of gallium fluoride at about 1,000° C., and that of indium fluoride at about 1,400° C.
