✦ Synopsis

We have observed an apparent photodestruction (using visible laser light) of a neutral Ar, cluster beam produced in a supersonic expansion. The clusters are detected by electron ionization/mass spectrometry.

Several tests were performed, all of which support this surprising discovery. We suggest that Raman-induced photodestruction (RIP) in the cluster growth zone is responsible for this phenomenon.

The photodissociation of (CO\*), and Ar, clusters has been investigated in a crossed-beams experiment, by means of the timeresolved opto-thermal technique. Clusters have been irradiated using both non-resonant visible and resonant infrared radiation (for (CO,), only). The cross section for visible p

Strong photodissociation in the visible of neutral (CO,),, n< 20, clusters produced by supersonic expansion and detected by electron ionization/attachment mass spectrometry is reported. Raman-induced dissociation (RIP) is suggested to be responsible for the occurrence of this phenomenon. The corresp
