Diamondoids are perfectly mass and size selected, hydrogen passivated, sp3-hybridized nano-carbon-cages. Through chemical functionalization their optical luminescence and absorption properties can be influenced. Diamondoids have negative electron affinity and are of interest for electronic applications like self-assembeld monolayer as field emitters. We used synchrotron radiation to measure the fluorescence yield, absorption and luminescence spectra of samples like adamantane, 1-methyladamantane and(2,2*)-biadamantanyl. The compounds were brought into the gas phase using a heatable target cell. The luminescence spectra show vibronic transistions. To study the thermally inhomogeneous broading of the features and spectral congestion due to intramolecular vibrational redistribution, excitation energy and temperature-dependent measurements were performed. In addition, calculations on the density functional theory level were performed. We conclude that the excess energy provided by an absorbed photon is redistributed entirely before luminescence takes place. This technique allows us to probe caloric properties at a nanoscopic level.
