β¦ Synopsis
Small metal cluster ions have been generated by direct laser desorption of modified or "activated" surfaces. Activation is achieved through electrochemical roughening and laser roughening of polished metal surfaces, leading to enhanced signals for Cu: (n=2, 3), Ag: (n= 3, 5), and Au: (n=2, 3). These ions have been observed using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, and the effects of laser power on their production have been investigated. Low-energy collision-induced dissociation of Au: has been observed to produce predominantly Au+.
