- Abstract
- Water clusters are multimers of water molecules held together by hydrogen bonds. In the present
work, multiphoton ionization in the UV range coupled with time of flight mass spectrometry has
been applied to water clusters with up to 160 molecules in order to obtain information on the electronic
states of clusters of different sizes up to dimensions that can approximate the bulk phase. The
dependence of ion intensities of water clusters and their metastable fragments produced by laser ionization
at 355 nm on laser power density indicates a (3+1)-photon resonance-enhanced multiphoton
ionization process. It also explains the large increase of ionization efficiency at 355 nm compared to
that at 266 nm. Indeed, it was found, by applying both nanosecond and picosecond laser ionization
with the two different UV wavelengths, that no water cluster sequences after n = 9 could be observed
at 266 nm, whereas water clusters up to m/z 2000 Th in reflectron mode and m/z 3000 Th in linear
mode were detected at 355 nm. The agreement between our findings on clusters of water, especially
true in the range with n > 10, and reported data for liquid water supports the hypothesis that clusters
above a critical dimension can approximate the liquid phase. It should thus be possible to study clusters
just above 10 water molecules, for getting information on the bulk phase structure. (literal)
