Laser Ablation-Molecular Beam Method: A Versatile Diagnosis for the Reactions of Metal Ions with Molecules in the Gas Phase. Dimanganese Decacarbonyl

Abstract
Intense laser light was focussed on the surface of a metal substrate (Nb or Cu) in vacuum, and a molecular beam of Mn2(CO)10 was injected nearby. Product ions resulting from the reaction of substrate metal ions or electrons with Mn2(CO)10 were analyzed by mass-spectroscopy. This method provides a simple and versatile diagnosis for the reactions of metal ions and/or electrons with molecules in the gas phase.
