摘要
The interaction of slow ions with a small polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, namely anthracene (Cb>14b>Hb>10b>), is studied in the gas-phase either with the isolated molecule or with a pure cluster target. We discuss the ionization and fragmentation of the molecule with respect to the projectile charge state, i.e. for singly charged He+ ions and for multiply charged Xe20+ ions. For the isolated Cb>14b>Hb>10b>, single or multiple ionization of the molecule occurs under ion impact. The (multi) cation relative yields are compared with those obtained by other ionization methods (electron and fs-laser). The molecular dissociation occurs by loss of hydrogen and small hydrocarbon molecules, leading to the formation of Cb>nb>Hb>xb> cations. The interaction of Xe20+ with Cb>14b>Hb>10b> clusters gives surprising results, i.e. the emission of hotter monomer compared to the interaction with He+.
