摘要
We study charge transfer collisions between laser-excited xenon (nf, np) Rydberg atoms and acetonitrile molecules and clusters. CH3CN- and (CH3CN)3- anions are observed only in extremely narrow ranges of Rydberg n-values. The measurement of the electron binding energies of these anions shows that they are in dipole-bound states. The transition to solvated electron behaviour corresponds to the appearance of more strongly bound large anions (N > 10) which are created for a wide range of Rydberg-electron energies.
