Gas Phase and Particle Diagnostic of Hmdso Plasmas by Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy
FTIR spectroscopy has been applied to a radio-frequency discharge in hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) diluted with oxygen and helium, as typically used for industrial SiOx, deposition. By measuring the infrared absor...

Size-dependent light emission from mass-selected clusters
The emission of photons in the visible wavelength range from mass-selected Ag+ n, Cu+ n, Pt+ n and Pd+ n ( ) clusters is observed. Photons are detected ...

R-Parity, the Supersymmetric Standard Model and the Phenomenology of Supersymmetry
Although it involves a spin-1/2 generator, the supersymmetry algebra cannot be used to relate directly known fermions and bosons. Nevertheless, and despite all appearances of the contrary, supersymmetry may still...

Photoemission study of the electronic structure of size-selected transition metal clusters deposited on Ag(110)
We report on a photoemission study (XPS, UPS) of the evolution of the electronic structure with cluster size of Nin, Pdn, Ptn(n=1–15) mass-selected clusters deposited in submonolayer quantities on a Ag(110) singl...

Electronic Structure of Deposited Mass-Selected Pt Clusters on Silver Films
The knowledge of electronic structure as a function of cluster size is crucial for the understanding of many properties of condensed matter at the nanometer scale such as the metal-insulator transition, the be...

Photoemission from Size-Selected Pt-Clusters Deposited on Silver Films
When atoms are brought close together to form a solid their outer wave functions overlap and the energy levels of the individual atoms broaden and become the energy bands of condensed matter. The observation o...

Electronic structure of deposited monosized metal-clusters
Monosized Pt- and Au-clusters deposited on silica substrates are analyzed by photoelectron spectroscopy. The 4f-core-level energies and the valence electronic states depend on the cluster size and on the element....

Electronic Structure of Monodispersed Deposited Platinum Clusters
The electronic core level and valence band structures of Pt1 to Pt6 clusters have been studied by photoemission excited by synchrotron radiation. The samples were produced from a mass selected beam of cluster ion...

Abnormally large deuterium uptake on small transition metal clusters
Deuterium uptake experiments on gas phase transition metal cluster cations of Ni, Pt and Rh show that the small (< 10 Å dia.) clusters can bind many (up to 8) deuterium atoms per metal atom in the cluster, in ...

Absorption spectroscopy of size-selected trimers and pentamers transition metal clusters isolated in rare gas solids: preliminary steps
Size-selected positive ionic silver trimers and pentamers and nickel trimers have been codeposited, at low kinetic energy, with rare gas (Kr) onto a cold transparent surface. They have been neutralized onto th...

Optical and Dynamical Properties of Metal Clusters
The spectroscopy of Na3 has been systematically investigated with different techniques: Two-Photon Ionization (TPI) and Depletion Spectroscopy (DS). Four excited electronic states have been found in the range fro...

Spectroscopy of Na3 and Experiments on Size-Selected Metal Cluster Ions
The spectroscopy of Na3 has been systematically investigated with three different techniques: two-photon ionization (TPI), depletion spectroscopy (DS), and stimulated emission pum** (SEP). Four excited electron...

The role of small silver clusters in photography
Size-selected silver cluster ions have been produced in a mass spectrometer arrangement and have been deposited onto binder-free AgBr microcrystals. Clusters containing less than four silver atoms did not cata...

Experiments on size-selected metal cluster ions in a triple quadrupole arrangement
A high flux of positively and negatively charged metal cluster ions was produced in a sputtering arrangement, energy-analyzed and mass-filtered. The resulting mono-dispersed cluster ion beam was introduced int...

Supersymmetry, Particle Physics and Gravitation
Supersymmetry is a beautiful symmetry between bosons and fermions, although there is no evidence of it in Nature1. This does not mean that supersymmetry is not present, but that it must be well hidden. Super symm...

Supersymmetric Theories of Particles
We show how spontaneously broken supersymmetric theories of weak, electromagnetic and strong interactions can be constructed.
