    Notes: Abstract The response of alkali cluster ions to an optical excitation is investigated for two different photon energy domains. Below the ionization potential giant resonances in the photoabsorption cross-section are observed for closed shell species. Above the ionization potential, the ionization process competes with the photofragmentation process. The number of valence electrons determines both the behavior of the photoabsorption spectrum and the evolution of the ionization cross-section with the cluster size. The stability of the clusters against an excess of charge is examined through the observation of an asymmetric fission of Na n ++ . Experimental results are discussed in term of an electrostatic model giving an estimate of the critical size of stability and of the height of the coulombic barrier.

    Notes: Abstract Two different approaches for studying the electronic structure of clusters are presented. The physical probe uses the photoexcitation of size selected alkali-atom clusters. Giant resonances govern the absorption cross-section. It is due to the collective excitation of delocalized valence electrons. The behavior of the resonance up to large sizes, 900-atom clusters for potassium and 1500-atom clusters for lithium puts into evidence the failure of the jellium model for lithium. The chemical approach makes use of the nucleation process in the presence of oxygen. From the analysis of mass spectra of oxidized products, informations are gained on the valence of metallic atom in the cluster oxide. The method is applied to europium and thulium clusters. A comparison is done with the simple case of alkali clusters.
