Vibrational wavepacket propagation in the electronicgroundstate |X〉 of supersonic jet cooled potassium dimers was investigated with a femtosecond pump–probe experiment. The wavepackets were generated by resonance enhanced stimulated Raman scattering into and interrogated by a time delayed three photon ionization process. The choice of the wavelength of the probe photons enabled a pure detection of

The reaction of alkali dimers with oxygen atoms has been studied in a crossed beam experiment. Strong chemiluminescence of the reaction products was observed. It is shown that the luminescence was emitted by alkali atoms from the reaction M2+O→MO+M (M alkali atom). M can be excited up to the exoergicity of this reaction at least in the cases M = Cs and Na. For M = Cs, detailed rate constants for the excitation of the different excited states have been determined using both laser induced fluorescence and chemiluminescence. The rates decrease nearly exponentially as a function of the excitation energy. They partly follow the expectation of statistical theories. Absolute reaction cross sections have been determined for all of the reactions investigated. They agree partially with those predicted by the harpoon model.
The unimolecular dissociation of metastable photoionized mass-selected heterogeneous alkali clusters is investigated using a tandem time-of-flight spectrometer. NaK+n and Nan K+ are found to dissociate by evaporation of either a single neutral atom or a neutral dimer of the most abundant constituant. This behavior differs from the evaporation of heterogeneous neutral clusters which might always evaporate potassium in order to explain the sodium enrichment in the NaxKy neutral cluster distributions. This difference in the dissociation patterns of neutral and ionic heterogeneous clusters puts into evidence the influence of the charge in unimolecular dissociation processes.
