Gas-Phase Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Metals and Metal Oxides of Importance in the Upper Atmosphere.

Abstract

Photoelectron spectroscopy is used to study in the gas phase the electronic structure of metals and metal oxides which are of importance in the upper atmosphere. Ionization energies and cross-sections at discrete wavelengths are obtained. Exothermicities of charge exchange reactions of metal oxides and dioxides of importance to atmospheric modelling calculations will be determined. Keywords: Photoelectron spectroscopy, Ionization energies, Ionic heats of formation, Charge exchange reactions.
