Photoelectron spectroscopy experiments provide insight into the electronic structure of atomic clusters. In the case of multiply negatively charged clusters, electron affinities and Coulomb barriers can be probed by varying the photon energy. In addition, poly-anionic metal clusters serve as model systems for electron-correlation phenomena. A setup is presented, which combines a radio-frequency ion trap, used for cluster-size selection, with a velocity-map imaging and a magnetic-bottle time-of-flight electron spectrometer. As a first test, measurements on mono-anionic fullerenes with respect to the first electron affinity, thermionic electron emission and the photoelectron angular distribution of the excess electron are conducted by the use of UV nanosecond pulses. The investigations will be extended to poly-anionic metal clusters, in the future. As higher charge states are only observed for larger cluster sizes, the enhanced requirements on the mass resolving power will be matched by a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass-separator. The project is funded by the Collaborative Research Center (SFB) 652.
