摘要
Small phenol-(NH3)(n) clusters have been studied through two-color two-photon and one-photon VUV ionization, in order to disentangle the contributions of various dissociation or reaction paths in the excited and ionic states. The most striking result of the two-color experiment is that (NH4)(+)(NH3)(n=1,5) fragments are observed with large delays (up to a few hundred nanoseconds) between the excitation and ionization lasers, whereas these same fragments are not observed in the VUV one-photon ionization experiment. In order to account for these findings, a new deactivation channel in the excited state of phenol-(NH3)(n) clusters has to be introduced: the hydrogen atom transfer PhOH(S-1) - (NH3)(n)--> PhO. + (NH4)(NH3)(n-1). In this case, the delayed (NH4)(+)(NH3)(n-1) signals correspond to direct ionization of the (NH4)(NH3)(n-1) clusters produced in the excited state.
