Abstract:Using the example of metal clusters, an experimental setup and procedure is presented, which allows for the generation of size and charge-state selected polyanions from monoanions in a molecular beam. As a characteristic feature of this modular setup, the further charging process via sequential electron attachment within a 3-state digital trap takes place after mass-selection. In contrast to other approaches, the rf based concept permits to access heavy particles. The procedure is highly flexible with respect … Show more
