Spectroscopic identification of carbon dioxide clusters: (CO2)6to (CO2)13

Abstract: In spite of wide interest in CO(2) clusters, only dimers and trimers have previously been assigned to specific infrared bands. Here, transitions for clusters with 6-13 molecules are identified in the ν(3) region (∼2350 cm(-1)). Spectra are observed in a supersonic jet (T ∼ 2.5 K) using a tunable laser probe, and analyzed with the aid of cluster calculations based on a widely-used model potential. Vibrational origins show blue-shifts significantly larger than predicted by resonant dipole interactions.

“…These pioneering works opened the way to high-resolution spectroscopy in the microwave and infrared spectral ranges [2][3][4][5]. It proved to be a challenging field, experimentally because these weakly bound species are difficult to produce with sufficient density, and theoretically because these complexes show large amplitude motions.…”

“…In gaseous phase, investigations have been mainly devoted to the analysis of the Fermi resonance coupling of vibrational modes of the isolated molecule, [1][2][3] and to the characterisation of the structure of weakly bounded clusters. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] In dense phase, the aim was to provide insight on the nature and time scale of the intermolecular interactions from "allowed" vibrational spectra or from the analysis of collision induced (CI) spectra which are unique probes of the multi-body interactions. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] The study of the interaction of carbon dioxide with molecular liquids and complex fluids as ionic liquids is a field of current interest, motivated not only from the fundamental point of view but mainly under the impetuous motivation of understanding the interactions of CO 2 in the field of environmental studies.…”

“…More recent references report mass spectrometric, IR, and photoelectron work on clusters like (CO 2 ) n 1-and O -(CO 2 ) n ; 2 Cl -(CO 2 ) n ; 3 F -(CO 2 ) n ; 4 CO 3 1-(CO 2 ) n ; O 2 -(CO 2 ) n ; NO 2 1-(CO 2 ) n , 5 O -(CO 2 ) n , (CO 2 ) n 1-; 6 X -(CO 2 ) with X = F, Cl, Br, and I; 7,8 I 2 1-(CO 2 ) n ; 9 H 2 O 1-(CO 2 ) n ; 10 and (CO 2 ) n . 11 The present paper, dealing with anionic clusters of carbonate with carbon dioxiode and of type CO 3 1-/2-(CO 2 ) n , serves several purposes. For one, monoanionic clusters play an important role in the negative ion chemistry of the lower atmosphere.…”
