    Ion mobility measurements of metal halide clusters

    The failure of standard solid state methods to determine the structure of very small clusters has been the starting point to adapt the ion chromatography technique to cluster experiments. A new approach combin...

    Infrared multiphoton excitation of refractory metal clusters

    Photoexcitation and photoionization experiments on small Tungsten and Niobium clusters were performed with a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm) and a reflectron type time-of-flight mass spectrometer. For low la...

    Metal Clusters: How Many Atoms are Required for Thermionic Emission ?

    We observe thermionic emission from free refractory metal clusters Wn, n ≥ 5 and Tan, n ≥ 4, following excitation by a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at its 2nd, 3rd and 4th harmonic. The ion yield from this process, wh...

    Thermionic Emission of Free Tantalum Clusters

    In this paper we report on the thermionic emission of electrons from hot metal clusters. Tantalum clusters were exposed to a 10 ns laser pulse, and the delayed emission of electrons from the clusters was recor...

    Production of “cold/hot” metal cluster ions: a modified laser vaporization source

    Metal clusters are generated via laser vaporization technique, but in contrast to common designs metal wires are used as target materials. This allowed to simplify the construction of the source dramatically, ...
