description

Photoabsorption cross sections of trapped V 13 + clusters were measured for energies between 1.4 eV and 6.1 eV by use of a two-photon fragmentation technique. Using two laser pulses separated by a 100-ns delay period the cross sections of hot clusters (up to 1800 K) could be compared to the values at room temperature. Whereas sodium clusters are known to exhibit pronounced temperature dependence below 300 K, no continuation of these effects to higher temperatures was found for V 13 + .
