The evolution of the electronic structure of small yttrium oxide cluster anions is studied using the laser vaporization technique for cluster generation and photodetachment photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) of mass selected gas phase cluster anions.
PES experiments are performed at three wavelengths: 532 nm, 355 nm, and 266 nm. Generally, electron binding energies (BE) are increasing with increasing number of y atoms per cluster as well as with increasing oxidation state of yttrium.
Low BE main spectral features are contributed from metal d-band orbitals whereas the O 2p contribution is less dominant in the observed energy range. The different behavior of molecular and dissociative chemisorption of oxygen with respect to cluster size is discussed in terms of electronic structures and both sequential oxygen and metal atom addition to the preceding cluster.
