The photoelectron images of O{sub 3}{sup −} and O{sub 3}{sup −} ⋅ (O{sub 2}){sub n} (n = 1–4) have been measured using 3.49 eV photon energy. The spectra exhibit several processes, including direct photodetachment and photodissociation with photodetachment of O{sup −} photofragments. Several spectra also exhibit autodetachment of vibrationally excited O{sub 2}{sup −} photofragments. Comparison of the bare O{sub 3}{sup −} photoelectron spectra to that of the complexes shows that the O{sub 3}{sup −} core is preserved upon clustering with several O{sub 2} molecules, though subtle changes in the Franck-Condon profile of the ground state photodetachment transition suggest some charge transfer from O{sub 3}{sup −} to the O{sub 2} molecules. The electron affinities of the complexes increase by less than 0.1 eV with each additional O{sub 2} molecule, which is comparable to the corresponding binding energy [K. Hiraoka, Chem. Phys. 125, 439-444 (1988)]. The relative intensity of the photofragment O{sup −} detachment signal to the O{sub 3}{sup −} ⋅ (O{sub 2}){sub n} direct detachment signal increases with cluster size. O{sub 2}{sup −} autodetachment signal is only observed in the O{sub 3}{sup −}, O{sub 3}{sup −} ⋅ (O{sub 2}){sub 3}, and O{sub 3}{sup −} ⋅ (O{sub 2}){sub 4} spectra, suggesting that the energy of the dissociative state also varies with the number of O{sub 2} molecules present in the cluster.
