Evolution of metallic screening in small metal clusters probed by PCI-Auger spectroscopy

Excitation-energy dependent Auger spectra of small copper clusters supported by a thin silica layer have been measured as function of cluster size. The Auger kinetic energy of the clusters clearly changes with the excess energy of the emitted photoelectron while not for the bulk. The kinetic energy shift is attributed to post-collision interaction (PCI) and exhibits a reduced metallic screening ability of small Cu-clusters. The spectroscopic data reveal an evolution from a long-range Coulomb-like interaction to a short-range “screened” electrostatic interaction within the sub-nm range. The data show that core electron spectroscopy such as PCI-Auger measurements can be used as a general tool to follow the metallic character of supported clusters.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
