Stability of highly charged metal clusters in the electric field of an external ion is investigated with the classical liquid
drop model. We study the optimum shape of the cluster which has a local minimum of the total energy, taking account of the
effects of the surface charge polarization on the Coulomb energy and the cluster deformation on the surface energy. We find
that the cluster deformation greatly affects the total energy of the system and that a cluster with a fissility larger than
some critical value 0.7-0.8 can become unstable against deformation. We investigate the local competition between the Coulomb
force and the surface tension at the cluster surface and show that the surface charge polarization which is induced by the
external electric field significantly affects the shape of the cluster and its stability.

Using Penning-trap experiments and a shell-correction method incorporating ellipsoidal shape deformations, we investigate
the formation and stability patterns of trianionic gold clusters. Theory and experiment are in remarkable agreement concerning
appearance sizes and electronic shell effects. In contrast to multiply cationic clusters, decay of the trianionic gold clusters
occurs primarily via electron autodetachment and tunneling through a Coulomb barrier, rather than via fission.

The stability of neutral, singly and multiply ionized silicon clusters, (N
= 2-7, M
= 0, , , ), has been investigated using an ab initio density functional method. We show that the fragmentation effect significantly affects the structure of mass-spectra of multiply
ionized silicon clusters. For clusters, the clusters with a large fragmentation energy are found to correspond to the high peaks at N = 4 and 6 in mass-spectra. For clusters, a peak at N = 5 in mass-spectra has been predicted to be especially high.

Thermionic emission from hot fullerene anions, CN
-, has been measured in an electrostatic storage ring for even N values from 36 to 96. The decay is quenched by radiative cooling and hence the observations give information on the intensity
of thermal radiation from fullerenes. The experiments are analysed by comparison with a simulation which includes the quantisation
of photon energy and the statistics of emission. Experiments with heating of the molecules with a laser beam confirm the interpretation
of the observations in terms of radiative cooling and give an independent estimate of the cooling rate for C60
-. The measured cooling rates agree in general within a factor of two with the prediction from a classical dielectric model
of a thermal radiation intensity of ∼ 300 eV/s for C60 at 1 400 K, scaling approximately with the 6th power of the temperature and with the number of atoms in the molecule.

The decay pathway competition between monomer and dimer evaporation of photoexcited cluster ions Au
+
n, n = 2-27, has been investigated by photodissociation of size-selected gold clusters stored in a Penning trap. For n > 6 the two decay pathways are distinguished by their experimental signature in time-resolved measurements of the dissociation.
For the smaller clusters, simple fragment spectra were used. As in the case of the other copper-group elements, even-numbered
gold cluster ions decay exclusively by monomer evaporation, irrespective of their size. For small odd-size gold clusters,
dimer evaporation is a competitive alternative, and the smaller the odd-sized clusters, the more likely they decay by dimer
evaporation. In this respect, Au

The recent addition of (i) a third sector field to our two
sector field mass spectrometer (resulting in a BE1E2 field
configuration) and of (ii) a high performance electron gun
enables us now to study in detail the time dependence of the
kinetic energy release distribution (KERD) over a relatively
wide range of cluster ion lifetimes. Using this newly
constructed device we have studied here for the first time KERDs
and deduced binding energies BEs (using finite heat bath theory)
of large rare gas cluster ions (an upper size limit in earlier
studies arose from the fact that different naturally occurring
isotopes will contribute to a chosen metastable peak when the
size exceeds a certain value) and in addition of fullerene ions
smaller and larger than
(here again contaminating
coincidences did not allow such studies earlier). Moreover, high
precision KERD measurements for the decay of rare gas dimer ions
in conjunction with model calculations (using recently
calculated potential energy curves for the rare gas dimer ions)
also enable us to obtain information on the dynamics and the
mechanisms of the underlying spontaneous decay reactions
. In addition, we are also reporting
here a novel method (unified breakdown graph method) to
determine cluster ion binding energies using a recently
constructed tandem mass spectrometer BESTOF allowing us to
measure fragmentation patterns arising from the unimolecular
decay of molecular cluster ions induced by surface collisions.
The fragmentation and reaction patterns of protonated ethanol
cluster ions investigated here clearly demonstrate in contrast
to some of the earlier cluster ion studies that unimolecular
dissociation kinetics determines the formation of product ions
in the surface-induced decomposition. 相似文献

We present a first-principles pseudopotential optimization of
the lower energy equilibrium structure of SinSc- anions for
n=14-18. We find that Si16Sc- is more stable than its
neighbors clusters, in agreement with recent experimental mass spectra. We
also optimize the geometry of pure Sin neutral clusters in the range
n=14-18, and compare our results with those from previous
first-principles calculations. 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.

Ion traps are wall-less containers which allow the
extended storage of selected species. During the storage various
interaction steps may be repeatedly applied. To this end no
further hardware has to be added - in contrast to beam
experiments. In this progress report two examples of recent
developments are presented: the experiments have been performed
with metal clusters stored in a Penning (ion cyclotron
resonance) trap. A new experimental scheme has been developed
which allows precision measurements of the dissociation energies
of polyatomic species. It has been triggered by investigations
on the delayed photodissociation of stored metal clusters.
However, the technique is also readily available for application
to a broad variety of different species and it is not even
restricted to trapping experiments. The second development is
more closely connected with ion storage in Penning traps: by
application of an electron bath singly charged anionic
clusters can be converted into multiply charged species.
Subsequently, they are charge selected and investigated with
respect to their reaction upon excitation. In particular,
preliminary results indicate that dianionic metal clusters emit
two electrons upon photoexcitation whereas the singly charged
species show dissociation. 相似文献

The spectra of deep inner-core excited mixed rare-gas clusters were recorded by using electron ion coincidence (EICO) and
multi-hit momentum imaging (MHMI) techniques.
The EICO spectra for Ar99Kr1 clusters reveal that singly charged ions are emitted from the inner-core excited clusters in addition to the multiple charged
ions.
The dependence of the EICO spectra on photon energy and cluster size suggests that the holes created through vacancy cascade
on the krypton atoms are transferred to the surrounding atoms, and that the singly charged ions are the primary product of
the krypton photoabsorption.
Charge localization is suggested for the inner-core excited mixed rare-gas clusters from the analysis of the EICO peak width.
The MHMI measurements give us direct evidence for the strong charge migration from X-ray absorbing atoms to surrounding atoms.
The photon energy dependence of the PSD image for fragment ions suggests that the momentum of the fragment ions depends on
the number of charges generated by the vacancy cascade. 相似文献

The electronic and geometric structures and photodissociation dynamics of the chromium trimer ion, Cr3
+, were investigated by photodissociation spectroscopy in the photon-energy range from 1.32 to 5.52 eV.
The branching fractions of the product ions, Cr+ and Cr2
+, exhibit stepwise changes at the threshold energies for dissociation into Cr++Cr2, Cr+Cr2
+, Cr++2Cr, and Cr*+Cr2
+.
It is noted that Cr2
+ is produced even above the threshold for atomization; the excess energy is redistributed to produce a fragment atom, Cr*, in an excited state.
The photodissociation action spectrum is well explained by a mixture of simulated spectra for two nearly-degenerate structural
isomers identified by density functional calculations:
those having a metastable C2v structure and the most stable structure slightly distorted from the C2v one.
The barrier height between the two isomers which is lower than the zero-point energy suggests that Cr3
+ has an intrinsically floppy structure. 相似文献

We performed a systematic investigation of the small BxNy (x + y? 6) clusters using the ab initio Hartree-Fock scheme plus second-order perturbation theory. The nature of the potential energy surface extrema are analyzed
through analytical total energy second derivatives. Ionization potentials, binding energies and the stability against some
possible reaction mechanisms are calculated. Based on these results we propose that the growing process for these clusters
is mainly due to the successive incorporation of BN molecules. A discussion of some mass spectrometry experimental results
is also presented.

The effect of melting transition on the ionization potential has been studied for sodium clusters with 40, 55, 142, and 147
atoms, using ab initio and classical molecular dynamics. Classical and ab initio simulations were performed to determine the ionization potential of Na142 and Na147 for solid, partly melted, and liquid structures. The results reveal no correlation between the vertical ionization potential
and the degree of surface disorder, melting, or the total energy of the cluster obtained with the ab initio method. However, in the case of 40 and 55 atom clusters, the ionization potential seems to decrease when the cluster melts.

The isomerization and evaporation processes in the neutral homogeneous (CH3CN)n molecular clusters (n
= 2-7) have been investigated using classical molecular dynamics simulations. The evaporation rate constants and the kinetic energy
release in the dissociation have been analysed as a function of the cluster size and as a function of the internal energy
in the parent cluster. The competition between monomer and dimer ejections has been also carefully studied. All the dynamical
properties in these dissociative processes have been discussed in relation to the static properties of the clusters involved
in the dissociation and also in relation to the solid-liquid like transition which appears in these homogeneous molecular
clusters.

The systematics of the plasmon response in spherical K, Na and Li clusters in a wide size region is studied. Two simplifying approximations whose validity has been established previously are considered: (a) a separable
approach to the random-phase-approximation, involving an expansion of the residual interaction into a sum of separable terms,
(b) the electron-ion interaction is modeled within the pseudo-Hamiltonian jellium model (PHJM) including nonlocal effects
by means of realistic atomic pseudoHamiltonians. In cases where nonlocal effects turn out to be negligible, the Structure
Averaged Jellium Model (SAJM) has been used. The leading role of Landau damping in forming the plasmon width in medium and
large clusters is demonstrated. Good agreement with available experimental data is achieved for K, Na (using the SAJM) and
small Li clusters (invoking the PHJM). The trends for peak position and width are generally well reproduced, even up to details
of the Landau fragmentation in several clusters. Less good agreement, however, is found for large Li clusters. The possible
reasons of the discrepancy are discussed.
