Reactions of Alkali‐Halide Clusters

This article reviews recent experimental work on reactive processes involving alkali-halide clusters (AHC). The processes discussed include: adsorption of molecules on AHCs [1]; reactive collisions of alkali-fluoride clusters with silicon surfaces [2]; and the primary photochemistry of alkali-bromide and -iodide clusters [3,4]. Earlier work on evaporation and cleavage processes, and experiments on clusters with excess electrons, are not reviewed.
