    We report a temperature-controlled photoelectron imaging study of SbO2–, produced from a laser vaporization source and cooled in a cryogenic 3D Paul trap. Vibrationally resolved photoelectron spectra are obtained for the ground state detachment transition, yielding the bending frequencies for both SbO2 and SbO2–. Franck-Condon simulations also allow the estimate of the vibrational temperature of the trapped SbO2– anion. A near-threshold spectrum of SbO2– at a photon energy of 3.4958 eV reveals partially resolved rotational structure for the 0-0 transition, which yields an accurate electron affinity of 3.4945 ± 0.0004 eV for SbO2. The rotational simulation also yields an estimated rotational temperature of the trapped ions.

    The advent of ion traps as cooling devices has revolutionized ion spectroscopy as it is now possible to efficiently cool ions vibrationally and rotationally to levels where truly high-resolution experiments are now feasible. Here, we report the first results of a new experimental apparatus that couples a cryogenic 3D Paul trap with a laser vaporization cluster source for high-resolution photoelectron imaging of cold cluster anions. We have demonstrated the ability of the new apparatus to efficiently cool BiO − and BiO 2 − to minimize vibrational hot bands and allow high-resolution photoelectron images to be obtained. The electron affinities of BiO and BiO 2 are measured accurately for the first time to be 1.492(1) and 3.281(1) eV, respectively. Vibrational frequencies for the ground states of BiO and BiO 2 , as well as those for the anions determined from temperature-dependent studies, are reported.
