Electron-beam excited xenon-doped liquid argon has two intense and well separated scintillation signals in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and in the near-infrared (NIR) wavelength region. Wavelength resolved scintillation spectra of liquid argon-mixtures are presented in a wide wavelength range from 115 to 3500 nm. The most intense emission features in the VUV and the NIR were measured time resolved (ns resolution) under pulsed electron-beam excitation. In this talk, the different detection principles, the results and a possible application in a novel detector concept are briefly discussed. This research was supported by the DFG cluster of excellence "Origin and Structure of the Universe" (www.universe-cluster.de) and by the Maier-Leibnitz-Laboratorium in Garching.
