Abstract
A corner stone in the study of the sizeβdependent properties of cluster ions in the gas phase is their structural characterization. Over the last 10 years, significant progress has been in this research field because of significant advances in the gas phase vibrational spectroscopy of massβselected ions. Using a combination of modern experimental and quantum chemical approaches, it is now in most cases possible to uniquely identify the geometric structure of cluster ions, based on the comparison of the experimental and simulated infrared spectra. In this article, we highlight the progress made in this research area by reviewing recent infrared photodissociation (IRβPD) experiments on small and medium sized (up to 30 atoms) vanadium oxide ions.

A method is described for the production of large cluster ions by direct laser vaporization in a low-pressure FTMS. Production of high-mass carbon cluster ions (C,' ; 40 < n < 180) and bismuth-antimony (Bi,Sb,? ) cluster ions containing up to five metal atoms are reported. The observed distributions
Characterization of a continuous source of single-charged transition-metal cluster ions is reported. Formation and cooling of the clusters occur via vaporization with an 8 kHz Cu vapor laser in a He flow. Cluster ions are mass-selected by a magnetic sector. Clustering and temporal behavior are exami
