Abstract [en] Gas phase vibrational spectra of [C3 H3 ]+ isomers and their fully deuterated isotopologues measured in a cryogenic 22-pole ion trap are presented. The widely tunable free electron laser for infrared experiments, FELIX, was employed to cover the frequency range 500–2400 cm−1 , complemented with an OPO/OPA system covering 2800–3400 cm−1 . Spectral assignments for both the linear and cyclic isomeric form (H2 C3 H+ and c-C3 H3 + , respectively) are made based on various high-level computational studies. The effect of ion source conditions and different precursors (allene and propargyl chloride) for the preferential production of a specific isomer is discussed. The perturbation of the vibrational band position due to complexation with neon in the recorded infrared-predissociation (IRPD) spectra are also reported in this study.
