Infrared multiphoton excitation of refractory metal clusters
1993
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 laser fluences the monomer and very small clusters do not show up in the mass spectra. Furthermore, the detected cluster ions show very asymmetric peak shapes caused by delayed ionization (thermionic emission). For high photon fluences photoions with up to charge state +3 could be detected.
