A plasma desorption mass spectrometry study of cluster ion formation from group IIA nitrates Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • Cluster ion distributions from the plasma desorption of the Group IIA metal nitrates were examined. Two predominant positive cluster species are observed, (MO)+nH and (MO)nM+ (M denotes metal atom). Regular pronounced features are observed in the mass spectra, including enhanced abundances at certain "magic numbers" of n.
