The study of the interaction of femtosecond laser radiation with matter, especially clusters, has blossomed in recent years due to advances in laser technology. One aspect of this interaction is Coulomb explosion. This effect occurs when the repulsive energy of like charges, known as Coulomb repulsion, overcomes the cluster's total cohesive energy, causing the cluster to disintegrate into charged fragments. In this study, the interactions of methyl iodide clusters, formed in a supersonic expansion using argon and helium as carrier gases, were investigated at 795 nm using a Ti: Sapphire femtosecond laser. The resulting atomic and cluster ions were analyzed in a reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The focus of these studies was the elucidation of the effects of carrier gas and laser wavelength on the laser-cluster interactions leading to Coulomb explosion. To achieve these goals, the effects of different carrier gases, laser power, cluster distribution, and the resulting Coulomb explosion energies were examined. A secondary consideration was to examine the experimental results with regard to the Coherent Electron Motion and Ionization Ignition models.
