    Notes: Analytic expressions for Li2–Rg and Na2–Rg electronic ground state potentials (Rg=He,Ne,Ar,Kr,Xe) that depend on all three Jacobian coordinates, atom–molecule distance R, bond length r, and orientation angle γ, are presented. The potentials are obtained by expanding the repulsive and attractive parts in a two-term Legendre expansion and connecting them via generalized damping functions as proposed by Tang and Toennies [J. Chem. Phys. 80, 3726 (1984)]. The bond distance dependence (req=5.051 a.u.≤r≤6.838 a.u. for Li2 and req=5.809 a.u.≤r≤7.607 a.u. for Na2) is introduced in the repulsive part via the r-dependent shift of the repulsive barrier and in the attractive part via the r dependence of the multipole polarizabilities and effective excitation energies. These potentials are shown to agree reasonably with ab initio data. The resulting values of potential well depth ε and equilibrium distance Rm are used to check the validity of recently proposed direct combining rules for r-dependent potentials.

    Notes: The scattering of high vibrationally excited sodium molecules Na2(v=31) with Ne atoms at 180 meV collision energy is investigated in a crossed molecular beam arrangement using laser optical methods. Angularly resolved rotationally inelastic and vibrationally elastic cross sections ji→jf are measured for ji =5, 7, and 9≤jf ≤25. Pronounced rotational rainbow maxima are observed, the angular position of which indicates a significantly larger anisotropy of the interaction potential compared to that of Na2(v=0)–Ne. Except for the increase of the anisotropy the vibrational excitation has little effect on the dynamics of rotational energy transfer. Good agreement with a new semiempirical Na2–Ne potential surface V(r,R,γ) is found.

    Notes: The effect of initial vibrational excitation on Li2(v,J)+Na collisions was studied experimentally and theoretically. The relative integral cross sections σ(v,J) were measured in a crossed beam experiment for vibrational states v populated thermally or by optical pumping, and for final states detected by laser induced fluorescence. It is found that σ(v,J) increases by 35±7% between v=0 and v=20, while the dependence on the initial rotational state J is insignificant, within ±5%. The effect of vibrational enhancement is about twice as large as that found for the Li2–rare gas systems for the same amount of vibrational excitation. The effect is about an order of magnitude larger than predicted by our quasiclassical trajectory calculations on a LEPS potential energy surface, thus suggesting that additional long-range potential terms ought to be included. We also attempted to measure state-selectively the LiNa (v',J') products from the thermal reaction and found an upper limit of the reactive cross section of 1 A(ring)2. This contrasts with the trajectory calculations that predict a 20 times larger cross section; we thus conclude that the reactive part of the potential also needs to be re-evaluated.

    Notes: Rate constants for inelastic processes in Na2 (v,j)–Ne, Ar, Na collisions are determined at a mean collision energy of the order of 1 meV in a supersonic seeded beam arrangement. The initial vibrational state v and rotational state j is varied in the range 4≤v≤35 and 5≤j≤25. The Na2 molecules are excited by Franck–Condon pumping near the transition region to free molecular flow and the flux of molecules which survive in the level (v,j) is monitored far downstream behind a small aperture. It is shown that elastic processes do not contribute to the observed signal. The magnitude of the cross section for the sum of all inelastic processes is as large as several hundred A(ring)2. It is found that the vibrational motion of the molecule, which carries an energy of up to 500 meV, strongly influences the collision dynamics. The rate constant increases with v by about 35% within the range of vibrational levels studied here. Some state-to-state rate constants are also reported. The experimental results are in good agreement with data from quasiclassical trajectory calculations on a semiempirical bond-distance-dependent potential surface. The observations can be rationalized by realizing that the long range attraction increases with vibrational excitation since the polarizability of the molecule increases. Furthermore, the vibrational excitation in combination with the relatively long interaction time due to the low collision energy enhances the probability for a change of the initial quantum state of the molecule.

    Notes: Na atoms have been observed on top of inert spacer layer/metal substrates at room temperature in an ultrahigh-vacuum environment via two-photon laser-induced fluorescence. As spacers, 1, 5, and 11 cadmium-arachidate (LB) and single dodecanthiol (SAM) layers were used, thereby changing the distance between atom and metal between 26 and 290 A(ring). A low sticking probability ((very-much-less-than)10−6) was observed, resulting in a coverage of the spacer layers with less than 10−3 of a monolayer Na. This low coverage is due to the low binding energy of Na at the CH3 end groups of the spacers (millielectron volts). The Na intensity showed a biexponential decay as a function of time with a small time constant (40 s) due to direct evaporation of Na adsorbed on top of the layers and a large time constant (650 s) due to diffusion of the Na atoms through the fatty acid layers. The two-photon detection scheme allowed a Doppler-free (high-resolution) measurement of line broadening and frequency shift of the spectral lines due to the presence of the metal surface. A moderate broadening was observed for Na on top of LB multilayers on Pt/mica substrates, denoting that the Na atoms diffuse through the fatty acid chains with their mean distance from the surface decreasing from 290 to 28 A(ring). In addition, we found a red shift of the spectral lines by a few hundred Megahertz. The results are compared with previous data of sticking and line broadening of Na on a SAM/Au/Si substrate.

    Notes: Abstract Na clusters bound to mica surfaces have been irradiated with pulsed and cw visible laser light. Kinetic energy and angular distributions of the Na atoms desorbing from the clusters have been determined using cw two-photon laser-induced fluorescence detection. In addition the dependence of the desorption rate on laser power, wavelength and polarization has been measured. The most probable kinetic energyE kin of the photodesorbed atoms at the surface temperatureT S =300 K was found to beE kin=18±5 meV, independent of laser irradiance (3 µJ/cm2...20 mJ/cm2) and wavelength (450 nm, 505 nm, 658 nm). With increasing orientation angle between detection axis and surface normal (0°≦Θ≦90°)E kin was observed to decrease slightly, while it was nearly independent of surface temperature betweenT S =30 K andT S =300 K. Also, with increasing radius of the Na clusters the desorbing Na atoms slowed down. The angular distribution of the Na atoms was of cos2-type with respect to the surface normal. These observations suggest that laser-induced desorption of Na from Na clusters bound to mica surfaces involves an initial rate-limiting step of direct surface plasmon excitation followed by a final step of delayed thermal desorption.
