Abstract

The cluster beam technique offers promise of becoming a useful tool for chemists in their search for new compounds. Using this technique elemental vapors can be made to react under controlled conditions to form units of condensed matter (clusters) small enough to be analyzed in a mass spectrometer but still large enough to contain several structural building blocks. Periodic patterns in cluster mass spectra often allow these building blocks to be uniquely identified. Of particular interest is the identification of building blocks unknown in the crystalline state.
