Interatomic Coulombic Decay (ICD) in weakly bound systems, e.g. van-der-Waals clusters or hydrogen bonded clusters, has recently attracted much interest as an efficient and ultrafast process by which the excess energy of electronically excited atoms or molecules is transferred to a neighboring site, thereby, ionizing it. Since its discovery ICD is considered to be a relevant process in radiation chemistry and living tissues by producing low kinetic energy electrons and radical cations which may induce irreparable damage to DNA. So far, most of experiments aiming at ICD-processes used charged particles as probe of the process. Recently we have successfully demonstrated a first unambiguous proof of ICD by undispersed measurements of the emitted photons from neon clusters [1]. Here we report the use of dispersed-fluorescence spectrometry to investigate ICD after resonant excitation in neon clusters.
