Abstract
An experimental setup for molecular beam scattering from flat liquid sheets has been developed, with the goal of studying reactions at gas-liquid interfaces for volatile liquids. Specifically, a crossed molecular beam instrument that can measure angular and translational energy distributions of scattered products has been adapted for liquid jet scattering. A microfluidic chip is used to create a stable flat liquid sheet inside vacuum from which scattering occurs, and both evaporation and scattering from this sheet are characterized using a rotatable mass spectrometer that can measure product time-of-flight distributions. This article describes the instrument and reports on the first measurements of evaporation of dodecane and Ne from a Ne-doped dodecane flat jet, as well as scattering of Ne from a flat jet of pure dodecane.
