Electron capture processes in collision between slow
X7+ (X = N, O and Ne) ions and C60 fullerene have been
investigated using coincident measurements of the number n of ejected
electrons, the mass and charge of the multicharged C60
r+ recoil ions and their fragments Cm
i+ and the final charge state of the
outgoing projectiles X(q-s)+ (
). The
collision velocity is about 0.4 a.u. The partial cross-sections σr
s , corresponding to r electrons transferred to the projectile with only s electrons stabilized, have been measured. Cross-sections
for collisions “inside” and those “outside” the C60
cage have been separated by analyzing the kinetic energy of the outgoing
projectile. The mean final charge state for frontal collisions has been
measured to 3.1, 2.6 and 2.5 for N7+, O7+ and Ne7+
respectively. These results show the importance of the core effect on the
stabilisation processes of captured electrons. 相似文献

We report on experimental and theoretical efforts designed
to understand the fragmentation of small carbon clusters.
Experimentally, a new detection system for high velocity
fragments has been recently developed allowing the fragmentation
of high velocity clusters to be totally recorded [1]. Results
for the branching ratios of deexcitation of
C5 and C9 formed
by electron capture in high velocity
collisions are presented. Theoretically, the dissociation
dynamics of C5 has been investigated
using a kinematical model based on the statistical theory of
Weisskopf. In this model various structural quantities
(geometries, dissociation energies, harmonic frequencies), are
required for both the parent cluster and the fragments. They
have been calculated within DFT and coupled-cluster formalisms
for Cn up to n = 9.
In all cases, a strong correlation between measured branching
ratios and calculated dissociation energies is observed. 相似文献

We have studied experimentally the collisional charge transfer between a neutral atom and a multicharged metal-atom cluster.
The charge transfer cross section measured for Na 31
+ + + Cs is in the range of 400 ?2. The time-of-flight mass analysis of the singly charged collision products demonstrates that an energy of about 0.5 eV is
deposited in the cluster fragment during the charge transfer collision. This effect can be interpreted as a charge transfer
to an excited state of the metal cluster. The measured cross section for Na 31
+ + + Cs is larger than the one for Na 31
+ + Cs collisions. This difference between these two systems is due to the existence, for the first one, of a Coulombic repulsion
term in the collision output channel.

We report a combined experimental and computational
investigation of small AlnOm species (n ≤20, m ≤
12), produced in a laser vaporization cluster source. The oxygen
content in the clusters was tuned by varying the oxygen
concentration in the carrier gas. Ionization energies are
bracketed using different ionizing photon energies in the energy
range between 5.37 and 7.89 eV. Among the singly doped AlnO
species, Al3O and Al15O are found to have relatively low
ionization energies, which can be related to the magic character
of the corresponding cations. Peculiarly low ionization energies
also are observed for specific oxygen rich species (m > 1),
suggesting the formation of ionically bound subunits. The
structures and ionization energies of singly doped AlnO0,+
(n = 1 - 7) clusters were determined using density functional
theory (B3LYP/6-311+G(d)).

In an experimental study, the multi-ionisation of metallic clusters (Nan) has been analysed in collisions with light ions in low charge states (H+, He+, He2+, O3+) at collision velocities below 1 a.u. Cluster ions are produced in charge states up to 5+. The average charge of the nano-particles
is found to increase linearly with the variation of projectile velocity and the square of the effective projectile charge,
well in agreement with the electronic stopping power of the bulk material. A fraction of 50% to 30% of the total projectile
energy loss (decreasing with velocity) is transferred into vibrational modes in good agreement with recent theoretical predictions.

Using a high resolution ( meV) laser photoelectron attachment method, we have studied the formation of (CO 2)
q
− ions (q = 4−22) in collisions of low energy electrons (1−180 meV) with (CO2)
N
() clusters. The previously reported “zero energy resonance”, observed at much larger electron bandwidths, actually consists
of several narrow vibrational Feshbach resonances of the type [(CO 2)
N
−1CO which involve a vibrationally-excited molecular constituent ( denotes vibrational mode) and a diffuse electron weakly bound to the cluster by long range forces. The resonances occur at
energies below those of the vibrational excitation energies of the neutral clusters [(CO 2)
N
−1CO ]; the redshift rises with increasing cluster ion size q by about 12 meV per unit; these findings are recovered by a simple model calculation for the size dependent binding energies.
The size distribution in the cluster anion mass spectrum, resulting from attachment of very slow electrons, mainly reflects
the amount of overlap of solvation-shifted vibrational resonances with zero energy; the cluster anion size q is identical with or close to that of the attaching neutral cluster.

Resonant Auger spectra of O2 clusters excited at the O1s edge are reported. After excitation to the repulsive 1s-13σ* state, the resulting resonant Auger spectrum displays features that remain constant in kinetic energy as the photon energy
is detuned. The shift between known atomic fragment features and these features is consistent with that observed for atoms
and clusters in singly charged states in direct photoemission. These findings are strong evidence for the existence of molecular
ultrafast dissociation processes within the clusters or on their surface. 相似文献

We have measured attenuation cross sections and fragmentation cross sections for protonated water clusters H(H2O)n
+ (n = 1 to 100) colliding with noble gas atoms (He and Xe) at a laboratory energy of 50 keV. In collisions with He, a transparency
effect in the attenuation cross section was observed. For the case of fragmentation in collisions with Xe, a strong enhancement
of small clusters was observed which we attribute to multifragmentation.

The influence of doping of Li-clusters by electronegative O and C atoms on the ionization potentials was investigated. Experimentally,
we report ionization potentials for bare Lin clusters deduced from photoionization efficiency spectra. The values are compared with the results for LinO and LinC clusters. Observed differences are largely attributed to a quantum size effect caused by the segregated molecular part around
the impurity, which changes the electron work function. Theoretically, the Fermi and exchange-correlation energies which enter
the work function, are calculated in the frame of the augmented plane wave (APW) method by taking explicitly into account
the presence of the molecular core. The other contribution to the work function, the moment of the double layer at the cluster
surface, is computed by solving the corresponding Poisson's equation.

Using molecular-dynamics simulation, we study the processes occurring
after impact of clusters on a rigid wall. Comparing the impact of model
clusters consisting of 13 atoms, or of 13 diatomic molecules with varied
bond strength, the systematics in the results of the collision process
are investigated. Four regimes of impact-induced cluster fragmentation
are identified: intact reflection, shattering into large fragments,
complete fragmentation, and molecule dissociation. The effect of the
number of degrees of freedom activated in the collision on the
translational and internal energies of the reflected fragments is
discussed in detail. As a rule, with increasing number of degrees of
freedom which can be activated in the collision, the translational
energy sinks. On the other hand, for weak intramolecular bonding,
intramolecular vibrations are easily excited at small impact energies,
reducing the resulting translational energy. The presence of even a very
weak attractive well epsilonw at the surface has a major influence
on the sticking behavior of the clusters — and hence also on the
absolute reflected energies — even at impact energies E0 ≫
epsilonw. 相似文献

The cross-sections for collisional charge transfer between singly charged free clusters M
n
+ (M = Li, Na; n=1...50) and atomic targets A (cesium, potassium) have been measured as a function of collisional relative velocity in laboratory
energy range 1–10 keV. For each cluster size, the experimental values of the charge transfer cross-section are fitted with an universal parametric curve with two independent parameters and vm, the maximum cross-section and the corresponding velocity. For small size clusters (), the characteristic parameters show strong variations with the number of atoms in the cluster. Abrupt dips observed for n=10 and n=22 are attributed to electronic properties. Charge transfer patterns observed for various collisional systems present similarities,
which appear more sensitive to cluster quantum size effects than to collision energy defects. In their whole, the and vm parameters show differences in both their size evolution and their absolute values discussed in term of projectile and target
electronic structures.

The geometrical structure of ground state Ban clusters (n
=2-14) has been predicted from various types of calculations including two ab initio approaches used for the smaller sizes namely HF+MP2(
n
=2-6), DFT (LSDA)(
n
=2-6, 9) and one model approach HF+pairwise dispersion used for all sizes investigated here. The lowest energy configurations
as well as some isomers have been investigated. The sizes n
=4, 7 and 13 are predicted to be the relatively more stable ones and they correspond to the three compact structures: the tetrahedron,
the pentagonal bipyramid and the icosahedron. The growth behavior from Ba7 to Ba13 appears to be characterized by the addition of atoms around a pentagonal bipyramid leading to the icosahedral structure of
Ba13 which is consistent with the observed size-distribution of barium clusters. Values for vertical ionization potentials calculated
for n
=2-5 at the CI level are seen to be in quite good agreement with recent measures.

Theoretical and experimental information on the shape and
morphology of bare and passivated gold clusters is fundamental
to predict and understand their electronic, optical, and other
physical and chemical properties. An effective theoretical
approach to determine the lowest-energy configuration (global
minimum) and the structures of low energy isomers (local minima)
of clusters is to combine genetic algorithms and many-body
potentials (to perform global structural optimizations), and
first-principles density functional theory (to confirm the
stability and energy ordering of the local minima). The main
trend emerging from structural optimizations of bare Au clusters
in the size range of 12-212 atoms indicates that many
topologically interesting low-symmetry, disordered structures
exist with energy near or below the lowest-energy ordered
isomer. For example, chiral structures have been obtained as the
lowest-energy isomers of bare Au28 and
Au55 clusters, whereas in the size-range
of 75-212 atoms, defective Marks decahedral structures are
nearly degenerate in energy with the ordered symmetrical
isomers. For methylthiol-passivated gold nanoclusters
[Au28(SCH3)16
and
Au38(SCH3)24],
density functional structural relaxations have shown that the
ligands are not only playing the role of passivating molecules,
but their effect is strong enough to distort the metal cluster
structure. In this work, a theoretical approach to characterize
and quantify chirality in clusters, based on the Hausdorff
chirality measure, is described. After calculating the index of
chirality in bare and passivated gold clusters, it is found that
the thiol monolayer induces or increases the degree of chirality
of the metallic core. We also report simulated high-resolution
transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images which show that
defects in decahedral gold nanoclusters, with size between 1-2
nm, can be detected using currently available experimental HRTEM
techniques. 相似文献

Metastable fragmentation of silver bromide clusters 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The abundance spectra and the fragmentation channels of silver bromide clusters have been measured and analyzed. The most
abundant species are AgnBrn - 1
+ and AgnBrn + 1
- and Ag14Br13
+ is a magic number, revealing their ionic nature. However, some features depart from what is generally observed for alkali-halide
ionic clusters. From a certain size, AgnBrn - 1
+ is no more the main series, and AgnBr n - 2, 3
+ series become almost as important. The fast fragmentation induced by a UV laser makes the cations lose more bromine than
silver ions and lead to more silver-rich clusters. Negative ions mass spectra contain also species with more silver atoms
than required by stoichiometry. We have investigated the metastable fragmentation of the cations using a new experimental
method. The large majority of the cations release mainly a neutral Ag3Br3 cluster. These decay channels are in full agreement with our recent ab initio DFT calculations, which show that Ag+-Ag+ repulsion is reduced due to a globally attractive interaction of their d orbitals. This effect leads to a particularly stable trimer (AgBr)3 and to quasi-planar cyclic structures of (AgBr)n clusters up to n = 6. We have shown that these two features may be extended to other silver halides, to silver hydroxides (AgOH)n, and to cuprous halide compounds.

We report on the size-dependent chemical reactivity of nickel clusters with up to 30 atoms. Monodispersed Ni30 clusters show a higher reactivity for CO dissociation than Ni11 and Ni20. Under our experimental conditions the smallest nickel clusters (Nix, x<4) produce nickelcarbonyl complexes. These results demonstrate that such small clusters are unique for catalytic reactions
not only due to their high surface-to-volume ratio but also essentially because of the distinctive properties of different
cluster sizes. In addition thermal desorption spectroscopy of CO shows that on average four molecules are weakly adsorbed
per Ni11 at saturation coverage. Using an isotopic mixture of 12CO and 13CO, infrared spectroscopy reveals the existence of a vibrational coupling interaction between the four COs. A semi-classical
model of interacting dipoles is applied to correlate the observed vibrational frequency shifts with the arrangement of the
COs on the cluster. This simple analysis favors a three-dimensional structure for the deposited clusters.

Geometries, electronic states and electron affinities of AlmAsn and AlmAs n (m+n=2–5) clusters have been examined using
four hybrid and pure density functional theory (DFT) methods. Structural
optimization and frequency analyses are performed using a 6-311+G(2df)
one-particle basis set. The geometries are fully optimized with each DFT
method independently. The three types of energy separations reported in this
work are the adiabatic electron affinity (EAad), the vertical electron
affinity (EAvert), and the vertical detachment energy (VDE). The
calculation results show that the singlet structures have higher symmetry
than that of doublet structures. The best functional for predicting
molecular structures was found to be BLYP, while other functionals generally
underestimated bond lengths. The largest adiabatic electron affinity,
vertical electron affinity and vertical detachment energy, obtained at the
6-311+G(2df)/BP86 level of theory, are 2.20, 2.04 and 2.27 eV (AlAs), 2.13,
1.94 and 2.38 eV (AlAs2), 2.44, 2.39 and 2.47 eV (Al2As), 2.09,
1.80 and 2.53 eV (Al2As2), 2.01, 1.57 and 2.36 eV (AlAs3),
2.32, 2.11 and 2.55 eV (Al2As3), 2.40, 1.45 and 3.26 eV
(AlAs4), 1.94, 1.90 and 2.07 eV (Al4As), respectively. However, the
BHLYP method gives the largest values for EAad and EAvert of
Al3As and EAad of Al3As2, respectively. For the
vibrational frequencies of the AlnAsm series, the B3LYP method
produces good predictions with the average error only about 10 cm-1 from available experimental and theoretical values. The other three functionals overestimate or underestimate the vibrational
frequencies, with the worst predictions given by the BHLYP method. 相似文献

Alkali atoms have been shown previously to have only unstable binding states inside liquid4He. We calculate the equilibrium configurations and binding energies of single alkali atoms near the liquid-vapor interface of4He and3He. A simple interface model is used to predict the surface deformation due to the presence of the atoms. A more realistic density functional model yields somewhat higher energies in the case of4He. For all alkali atoms, we find the surface binding energies to be around 10 to 20 K. A similar analysis with atom-H2 interactions finds that alkali atoms tend to submerge into liquid H2, with the exception of Li. 相似文献
