Start of PhD Timo Schwab
2022/12/01
Since December 2022, Timo Schwab is a PhD student in the Schäfer group. As part of his PhD, he continues the study clusters by means of photodissociation action spectroscopy in the UV-vis spectral range. In the long term, an extension of the experiment by an electric deflection unit for isomer-selective spectroscopy on small neutral clusters is planned.

New VUV Laser System
2022/11/21
A new laser system for the VUV spectroscopy has been installed. With this light source it is possible to determine the ionization potentials of clusters more precisely. In addition, the intensity of the light is much more intense than with the previously used monochromator setup, allowing more cluster species to be measured.
