Doctoral Examination Filip Rivic

On 18 December 2024, Alexander Macion successfully defended his doctoral thesis entitled “Construction and commissioning of an experimental apparatus for the determination of ionization potentials of clusters in the molecular beam”. Congratulations!

The work deals with the construction of the combined apparatus for laser spectroscopy, which makes it possible to carry out both the earlier photodissociation experiments and new photoionization experiments. For this purpose, a new laser system was set up which allows energies of up to 9.3eV to be generated using various frequency mixing methods.

This will make it possible in future to precisely determine ionization potentials of clusters and thus validate quantum chemical calculations.
