TI - Gas-phase basicity: Parameter determining the efficiency of laser desorption/ionization from silicon surfaces PY - 2013/// CY - Moscow PB - Pleiades Publishing KW - Analytical chemistry N2 - The efficiency of laser desorption/ionization of twenty compounds from the surface of amorphous silicon is studied as a function of proton affinity (PA) and gas-phase basicity (GB). The values of GB and PA are obtained from quantum-chemical calculations using the density functional theory in the B3LYP model with the 6–311++G(3df,3pd) basis set. The values of GB lie in the range from 845 to 977 kJ/mol. The efficiency of laser desorption/ionization exponentially depends on the GB and PA values and for the studied compounds varies from 7 × 10−6 to 1.4 × 10−2 UR - http://www.springer.com/chemistry/analytical+chemistry/journal/10809 ER -
