Notes:
The cross section for ionization of Ne Rydberg atoms (17 ≲ n ≲ 40) by Si(CH3)4 is measured to be (7.0 ± 3.0) × 10-14 cm2, whereas that by C(CH3)4 is less than 1.2 × 10-15 cm2. This remarkable difference is explained by a mechanism of vibrational deexcitation of the target molecule. The observed cross sections are reproduced by a calculation using the dipole-moment derivatives for the lowest infrared-active modes, v17-v19, measured by far-infrared spectroscopy.
