The RET technique is selective with respect to the excess electronbinding energy Eb that depends on the total dipole moment µ andthus on the neutral parent geometry.

Coupling dipole-bound anion formation and IR Coupling dipole-bound anion formation and IR spectroscopy spectroscopy
• Dipole-bound anion formation by RET is a unique ionisation method that is almost totally non-perturbative: almost no internal energy is provided upon ionisation. It allows rigorous mass-selection and partial structure-selection. It is an alternative technique to REMPI when polar molecules without chromophore are involved.
• If resonant IR absorption occurs, for C-H N-H or O-H bonds, the neutral molecule or complex will acquire a lot of internal energy (2800-3800 cm-1) and then:* molecular dipole-bound anions will autodetach* neutral non-covalent complexes will predissociateIn both cases, anion signal will decrease.

• To switch to a laser desorption source for the molecular beam.
• To extend the IR OPO to the 4-10 µm region (AgGaSe2).

Provisional conclusionsProvisional conclusionsUp to n = 5, lowest neutral structures correspond to GIWn configurations
with rather low dipole moments for n = 1,2,3.No dipole-bound anions from cold neutrals up to n = 3. Bowen’s data ? But stable DBAs can be form from higher energy neutral GIIWn isomers.
The calculated Eb fit hardly with Johnson’s data for n = 1,2
At n = 4-5, GZ- Wn valence anions become more stable than the GIIWn
neutrals and their possible dipole-bound anions.Does this explain the exp. threshold for anions at n = 4-5 ?E between lowest GZ- Wn and corresponding GZWn:
For n = 4,5 VDEGZ-Wn ~ 1 eV (too high/0.6 eV measured by Bowen).
GZWn zwitterions are minima at n = 2 but become more stable than GIWn
and GIIWn neutrals only at n ≈ 7. See Gordon’s calculations.
GIIWn neutrals become more stable than GIWn neutrals probably only for
rather large clusters (n > 10).
