Photoelectron Spectroscopic Studies of Complex Anion Solvation in the Gas Phase (Kay's BES-Surface Kinetics, PNNL Scope #16248)
EMSL Project ID
8592
Abstract
Hydration is important for the function of biomolecules. Gas phase studies of hydrated clusters provide a valuable means to obtain molecular level information about ionic solvation. We produce hydrated clusters of complex anions in the gas phase using electrospray and investigate their structure and energetics using photodetachment photoelectron spectroscopy and ab initio theoretical calculations.
