Abstract
Infrared bands of carbon chains C-n (n = 8-12) and C-n(-) (n = 5-10,12 ) have been observed in neon matrices in the 1600-2100 cm(-1) region. The matrices were grown at 5 K by codepositing mass-selected carbon an ions with excess of neon. The neutral carbon chains were obtained from the anions by photodetachment. The assignments of the infrared transi tions are based on mass-selection, photobleaching behaviour, intensity correlation with the known electronic transitions, and available ab i nitio calculations.
