Notes:
A line-tunable CO laser has been used to record infrared absorption profiles for (NO)n+ and (NO)n+.Ar clusters for n in the range 2–19 and at wavelengths between 1600 and 1900 cm−1. The presence of an argon atom is shown to have the effect of reducing the internal energy content of the ions, and for the case of (NO)2+. Ar is the only circumstance under which infrared absorption can be detected for the dimer ion. The trimer ion, (NO)3+, is found to have a very strong absorption feature at ∼1700 cm−1, which remains both static and comparatively narrow in subsequent cluster ions containing up to 19 nitric oxide molecules. It is concluded that (NO)3+ forms a stable core in larger clusters and that there is very little additional charge delocalization. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
