Experimental studies on selenium cluster structures

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik D Atoms, Molecules and Clusters

Abstract

In this paper, we report properties of selenium clusters produced by vapor condensation technique. Impact electronic ionization is performed on clusters in the size range from 2 to 36 atoms. The measured ionization potentials exhibit small oscillation corresponding to the wiggles observed on the mass distribution. An attempt to connect these experimental observations with the geometrical structure of the molecules is made in the discussion.
