“…The authors stated that these effects are attributed to symmetry breaking, which enhances electron density polarization of the cobalt clusters induced by Ar tagging. This strong effect of Ar addition is markedly different from other, larger, metal clusters, such as cationic niobium, tantalum, and silver clusters, in which the influence of the rare-gas atoms on the IRMPD spectra was found to be small and limited to frequency shifts of a few wavenumbers only [52][53][54]. Co4 + and Co5 + were previously studied by Fielicke and co-workers [16], who reported IRMPD spectra for Co4Ar1,2,4,5 + and Co5Ar1,5 + .…”
