摘要
Raman spectroscopy of matrix-isolated, mass-selected Fe-3 and Ag-3 reveal that both are Jahn-Teller distorted triangular molecules. The observed spectrum of Ag-3 can be accounted for adequately using an approximate Jahn-Teller potential truncated at the quadratic term [Wedum , J. Chem. Phys. 100, 6312 (1994)] with parameters omega(a)=119 cm(-1), omega(e)=99 cm(-1), k=1.92, and g=0.29. For Fe-3, the spectrum is more complex, most likely due to the fact that spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in this high-spin cluster in addition to the quadratic Jahn-Teller terms. The overall pattern of the spectrum suggests that in Fe-3 the Jahn-Teller distortion is likely small, and a peak at 249 cm(-1) is tentatively assigned to its symmetric stretch.
