Ionization cross sections of small cationic carbon clusters in high-energy collisions with helium atoms and stability of multiply charged species

Journal Article Mezdari, F ; Wohrer-Beroff, K ; Chabot, M ; ... - Physical Review. A

Single, double, triple, and quadruple ionization cross sections of small cationic carbon clusters C{sub n}{sup +} colliding with helium atoms at a fixed velocity (2.6 atomic units) have been measured. The size ranges from n=1 to n=10 for single to triple ionization, from n=5 to n=10 for the quadruple ionization. The dependence of the cross sections with the cluster size is found to be well reproduced by predictions of the independent atom and electron (IAE) collision model. This extends the applicability of this simple model to higher n values and to a higher ionization degree than previously done [M. Chabotmore »« less

Role of ligands in the stability of B _n X _n and CB _n-1 X _n (n = 5–10; X = H, F, CN) and their potential as building blocks of electrolytes in lithium ion batteries

Journal Article Zhong, MingMin ; Zhou, Jian ; Fang, Hong ; ... - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics. PCCP (Print)

Stabilizing small multiply charged negative ions in the gas phase has been of considerable interest in recent years. B12H122- is one of the most well-known dianions which is stable against auto-detachment of its second electron in the gas phase by 0.9 eV, whereas BnHn2- with n < 12 is unstable. Using density functional theory, we have examined systematically the role of ligands in stabilizing smaller mono- and di-anions of BnXn and CBn-1Xn (n = 5–10; X = H, F, CN). We show that the stability of the negative ions of these complexes increases with the electron affinity of the ligandmore »« less

Shell-correction method for calculating the binding energy of metal clusters: Application to multiply charged anions

Journal Article Yannouleas, C ; Landman, U - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (United States)

Utilizing the nuclear-physics concept of separating, as a function of size, the total energy of a finite system into two parts, a [ital smooth] contribution and a shell correction, we introduce a method of calculating the binding energy of metal clusters. The method consists of a determination of the smooth part of the total energy from an extended Thomas Fermi approach to density-functional theory, and of superimposing on it a shell correction introduced through the kinetic-energy contribution. While circumventing a self-consistent iterative solution of the effective single-particle Kohn-Sham equations, the present method yields results in excellent agreement with such self-consistentmore »« less

Dissociation channels for multiply charged clusters

Journal Article Kreisle, D ; Echt, O ; Knapp, M ; ... - Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)

Size distributions of fragments from multiply charged clusters have been determined. On a time scale of 0.1 ms with respect to ionization, triply charged CO/sub 2/ clusters of size nroughly-equal114 are found to fission extremely asymmetrically, their doubly charged fragments carrying 92% of the mass. For doubly charged CO/sub 2/ clusters, however, evaporation of neutral monomers is the only channel for delayed dissociation. A model, based on the liquid-drop approximation, can quantitatively account for the lower size limits of multiply charged clusters as well as for the distribution of fission fragments from (CO/sub 2/)/sub roughly-equal114/ /sup 3 +/. .AE

Infrared spectroscopy of size-selected molecular clusters

Journal Article Buck, U - Advances in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics

The investigation of properties and dynamics of molecular clusters has attracted much interest. These clusters are usually weakly bound by either van der Waals forces or hydrogen bonds. They are expected to form the link between the behavior of single molecules in the gas phase and that in the bulk condensed phase. Compared with crystalline matter, they are of finite size without the symmetry of the space group, they have a large surface to volume ratio, and they can change their properties when adding or subtracting one constituent. Compared with stable molecules, the clusters form many more isomeric structures whichmore »« less
