A new electronic transition of PtF was observed by intracavity laser absorption spectroscopy. Based on theoretical calculations of the electronic structure, this spectrum is assigned as the 2S+ - 2S+ transition. PtF molecules were produced in a Pt-lined hollow cathode sputter source in Ar with a trace of SF6. Results of the analysis will be presented.
