Direct observation of ion evaporation from a triply charged nanodroplet

Abstract

Triply charged, highly solvated metal ions of the form [Ln(H2O)n]3+ can be generated using a commercial mass spectrometer, and CID studies on these highly charged metal–solvent clusters allow for the direct observation of a process best described as ion evaporation.
