An optical method for temperature measurement of silver clusters
Generating silver clusters by means of the gas aggregation technique, we have observed that in addition to larger clusters, a substantial amount of silver dimers is always present. This allows us to determine ...

Interaction of CO with silver clusters: Dependence on cluster size
The interaction of matrix-isolated silver clusters with CO has been investigated for clusters containing as few as 100 atoms/cluster. A vibrational mode at a monolayer coverage, which is found on bulk silver a...

Electron impact ionization of silver clusters Ag n ,n≦36
Electron impact ionization of gas phase silver clusters Ag n ,n≦36 has been achieved in the threshold region. The vertical ionization potentials in this region clearly demonstrat...

Silver-halogen cluster compounds Ag n X m (n≥2; 0≤m≤n;X=F, Br)
Nonstoichiometric silver-halogen cluster compounds Ag n X m (0≤m≤n;X=F, Br) are generated by cocondensation of Ag atoms and AgX species using ...

Shell effects in singly and multiply charged silver and gold clusters
The mass spectra of silver- and gold-clusters, generated by a gas aggregation technique and ionized by electron impact, reveal anomalies in the relative abundance of both singly and multiply charged clusters. ...

CARS spectroscopy of molecules and clusters in supersonic jets
Supersonic molecular beams of D2, CH4, NH3, and C2H4 are investigated in the expansion region employing collinear coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS). The analysis of rotationally resolved CARS spectra...
