Photoionization of the endohedral fullerene ions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The first experimental results on photoionization of mass-selected endohedral Sc3N@C + 80 and Ce@C + 82 fullerene ions are reported. The merged-beams technique was employed to measure photo-ion yield spectra as well as absolute cross sections. Comparing the results of endohedral fullerenes with those obtained using ”empty” C+80 and C + 82 ions provides insight into the mutual influence of the fullerene cage and the encapsulated atom or molecule on one another in photoabsorption processes.

Significant redistribution of Ce 4d oscillator strength observed in photoionization of endohedral Ce@C82+ ions.
Mass-selected beams of atomic Ceq+ ions (q = 2, 3, 4), of C82+ and of endohedral Ce@C82+ ions were employed to study photoionization of free and encaged cerium atoms. The Ce 4d inner-shell contributions to single and double ionization of the endohedral Ce@C82+ fullerene have been extracted from the data and compared with expectations based on theory and the experiments with atomic Ce ions. Dram...

Mass-selected beams of endohedral fullerene Ce@C82 ions, of atomic Ce q+ ions (q=2,3,4), and of empty fullerene-cage C82 ions were employed to study photoionization of fullerene-encapsulated and free cerium atoms. The Ce 4d inner-shell contributions to single and double ionization of the endohedral Ce@C82 fullerene have been extracted from the data and compared with expectations based on theory...
متن کاملInner-Shell Ionization and Fragmentation of Isolated Endohedral Fullerene Ions by XUV Radiation
The photon–ion merged-beams technique for photoabsorption studies of ionized nanoparticles with synchrotron radiation is introduced. As an example, recent results from photoionization and photofragmentation of the endohedral fullerene ions Lu3N@C 80, Lu3N@C 2+ 80 , and Lu3N@C 3+ 80 are briefly discussed, highlighting the sensitivity and versatility of the experimental technique.
متن کاملPhotoionization and vacancy decay of endohedral atoms
We demonstrate the role played by the fullerenes shell in the photoionization and vacancy decay of endohedral atoms 60 @C A . It is shown, partly in the frame of a rather simple model that describes the fullerene shell, partly using only the assumption on the smallness of the atom A in comparison to the size of C60 that it affects photoionization and the vacancy decay of 60 @C A profoundly. Nam...
متن کاملPhotoionization of Ce 3+ -ce
Photoionization of the Ce Ce process has been studied using the random phase approximation with exchange method in the energy region 100-150 eV. Comparison of our results with the recent measurement [Müller et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 133001 (2008)] confirms the suppression effect of the carbon cage in the endohedral fullerene Ce@C+82 photoionization. The reasons for the cause of the confineme...
