Lately, evidence for an Intermolecular Coulombic Decay (ICD) in nitrogen van-der-Waals-dimers has been found and ICD has been suggested to widely accure in biologic tissues. While the electronic states of gaseous nitrogen have been subject of scientific investigations for decades, the geometric and electronic structure of clusters are not yet completely understood. N2-clusters have recently been in discussion because of a showcase, which might be a candidate for future medical applications of ICD [1, 2]. In order to investigate the ICD in N2-clusters in detail, it is necessary to know their electronic structure. Photon-induced fluorescence spectroscopy delivers information about the electronic states of a species. To contribute to the above-mentioned discussion fluorescence spectroscopy is introduced as a technique for investigating the geometric and electronic structure of nitrogen clusters and first data are presented.
