Mass Spectra of Metal-Doped Carbon and Fullerene Clusters MxCn<120 (M= Ce, Gd; x = 1,2) — •R. Klingeler, P.S. Bechthold, M. Neeb, and W. Eberhardt — Forschungszentrum J"ulich GmbH, Institut f"ur Festk"orperforschung, 52425 J"ulich
We present mass spectra of metal-doped carbon cluster cations MxCn+ (M=Ce, Gd; x=1,2; n*120) produced in a high frequency laser evaporation source (100 Hz) which is designed to deposit mass selected gas phase cluster ions onto a substrate under UHV conditions. The clusters are mass selected by a magnetic field deflector and are detected by a secondary electron amplifier behind the exit slit. The mass spectra reveal the onset of endohedrally doped fullerenes from which the smallest possible cage size can be deduced.
