Abstract
Zero-kinetic-energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectra of metalcarbide anion s are presented, allowing a high resolution spectroscopic access to in termediates in catalytic reactions of hydrocarbons on metal surfaces. As a first compound, FeC2 (an intermediate of the iron/acetylene syste m) has been chosen. Important for successful ZEKE spectroscopy was a s pecial anion source and the selection by time-of-flight mass spectrome try. In addition, conventional laser induced photo-detachment photoele ctron spectroscopy in combination with our anion source and mass analy zer delivered valuable new information.
