Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigate that the isolated four-atom molecule diiodoacetylene survives after the removal of four electrons via tunneling. We show that the tetracation remains metastable towards dissociation at least 10 μs because of the localization of the positive charges on the terminal iodine atoms, ensuring minimum Coulomb repulsion between adjacent atoms as well as maximum charge-induced attractive dipole interactions between iodine and carbon. Our approach making use of iodines as the positively charged sites enables small organic MMCs to be intact. We designed, manufactured, constructed, and characterized a Bradbury-Nielsen ion gate (BNG). Further, the actual ion selection ability, i.e., the gate function, of the BNG was measured for the isotopes of multiply charged Xe. The gate function of our BNG was 36.5 ns in width. Our BNG provides a simple means of satisfying the requirement of selecting multiply charged molecular cations of small organic molecules.
