Abstract
Silver ions comprising 8, 11, 20, and 21 atoms have been produced by s puttering, mass-selected in a quadrupole mass filter and deposited at 30-eV landing energy together with neon on a 5-K sapphire support. The absorption spectra show results similar to the system Ag-n/argon, but are better resolved. The spectra are compared to gas-phase depletion data and to corresponding sodium clusters. The matrix shift is analyze d and a value of the gas-phase position of the spectra is given.
