Abstract
The construction and operation of new laser-based universal evaporation/ablation source of high cluster yield combined with an ultra high vacuum experiment chamber for in situ investigations is described. The source was designed for cluster beam production. The beam is characterized by uniform cluster motion and low collision rates that leads to quite narrow distribution of deposited clusters. This source is applied especially for high refractory materials or/and for materials with high melting temperatures. Some examples of the synthesis of yttrium nanoclusters and chemical solid state reaction of these clusters with oxygen and hydrogen are presented.
