- Abstract
- Supersonic beams have numerous applications in research fields ranging from spectroscopy with nanodroplets
to surface science and matter-wave microscopy. Thus, measurement and prediction of their properties is of
considerable interest. In this paper we present measurements of the virtual-source size and its brightness, as
well as the terminal speed and terminal speed ratio of a supersonic deuterium (D2) beam. The speed distribution
data were measured with time-of-flight experiments and Fresnel zone-plate imaging was used to measure virtual
source size. The point-spread function of the zone plate was simulated based on the measured wavelength
distribution and used to extract the width of the virtual source and its brightness from the focus measurement.
The experiments were carried out with a 10-?m-diameter nozzle and a source temperature of T0 = 310 K in the
pressure range p0 = 3-171 bars and for T0 = 106 K in the pressure range p0 = 3-131 bars.We found that using
deuterium as opposed to helium results in a virtual source that is about a factor 2 brighter under similar stagnation
conditions. A comparison between the measured data and the predictions from a theoretical model based on
the Boltzmann equation, which explicitly include the coupling between translational and rotational degrees of
freedom as well as the real-gas properties of D2, resulted in good correspondence for the two different interaction
potentials we tried. A careful comparison with the experimental results shows that the potential by Buck et al.
[J. Chem. Phys. 78, 4439 (1983)] is moderately better than the Lennard-Jones potential at describing the expansion
dynamics. (literal)
