In this work, we present the fixed-frequency (at 355 nm) negative-ion photoelectron spectrum of Co(C0)2NO-. Analysis of the spectrum yields the electron affinity of Co(C0)2NO; EA[Co(CO)zNO] = 1.73 f 0.03 eV. The lack of extensive vibrational progressions in the spectrum is consistent with the neutral species and the negativeion having similar equilibrium geometries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
