- W3169603399 abstract "This work presents various novel results in the field of experimental and theoretical trapped ion studies. All investigations involve laser-cooled 138Ba+ ions confined in a linear quadrupole ion trap, which serve as coolant for complex molecular ions, as target for collisions with neutral atoms, or as model system in theoretical analyses. The special feature of the apparatus used in this work, is a molecular ion source based on electrospray ionization that allows for the production of gas-phase molecular ions of almost arbitrary species with a maximum mass-to-charge ratio of 2,000 Da. Trapped together with laser-cooled 138Ba+ ions, the molecular ions can be cooled down, kept cold and investigated for many minutes and in principle for up to hours in a nearly collisionless environment. In this work, the sympathetic cooling of complex molecular ions to translational temperatures below 1 K is demonstrated for different types of molecules covering a mass range from 182 to 12,400 Da. Using the example of the protein cytochrome c, with a mass of about 12,400 Da the most massive molecular species sympathetically cooled in an ion trap so far, the methods for detection of successful trapping and cooling, and temperature determination are presented in detail. In one case, multiply protonated molecules of the protein cytochrome c have been cooled to less than 0.75 K. Furthermore, two methods for measuring photodestruction rates of cold, trapped complex molecular ions have been developed that can, for example, be applied in destructive spectroscopy schemes. Both techniques are demonstrated using the example of singly protonated glycyrrhetinic acid molecules (GAH+) dissociated by an ultraviolet (UV) laser. Measurements of the photodestruction rate were performed at different intensities of the UV laser, and rates as low as 0.05 s-1 and less have been determined, which is only possible due to the long ion storage times that can be achieved with this apparatus. For the UV laser wavelength of 266 nm, a destruction cross section of (1.1±0.1)∙10E-17 cm2 for GAH+ has been determined. In this work, feasibility studies towards internal cooling of trapped complex molecular ions have been performed. Such an additional internal cooling could be realized via collisions with laser-cooled neutral atoms. To test their suitability, neutral atoms of Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Yb have been collided with trapped laser-cooled and not cooled Ba+ ions as well as with complex molecular ions. For all species charge exchange reactions with Ba+ ions have been observed excluding these species for collisional cooling. While K, Rb, and Cs showed charge exchange reactions with ground state and laser-excited Ba+ ions, the charge exchange rates of Yb and Ba+ were found to be state dependent. Collisions of neutral Yb atoms were found to be reactive and lead to the formation of adducts and fragments, in contrast to the alkali metals for which no such reactions have been observed. In addition, the motion of cooled, trapped ions has been studied theoretically via simulations. When the translational energy of a trapped ion ensemble is sufficiently reduced, a first-order phase transition from a liquid to a solid state occurs with the ion ensemble changing from a disordered ion cloud to an ordered ion crystal. As ions in a linear quadrupole trap arrange in shell structures, a free motion in radial direction is disabled, and ions can only move to neighboring shells when their kinetic energy is high enough to overcome a certain potential barrier. The simulations have shown that intershell diffusion rates in the considered ion crystals increase exponentially when the ion temperatures exceed values that well agree with the predictions of other established models. Ion ensembles of different ion numbers (300, 500, and 1000 138Ba+ ions) and symmetries (prolate and spherical) have been investigated showing a clear tendency for the phase transition temperatures: The higher the ion number, the lower is the transition temperature." @default.
