Abstract
A versatile apparatus for the study of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectroscopy and photoionization of molecules has been developed. A pulsed, supersonic molecular beam is crossed with the focused beam of a pulsed dye laser or its doubled or tripled output. Ions are created by multiphoton ionization (MPI) with the fundamental beam (three to five photons), two-photon ionization using the doubled or tripled beam, or one-photon ionization with VUV. Use of a second laser for two-color experiments is also possible.
