We demonstrate the isomer-resolved spectroscopy of gas-phase ions, with different geometries separated prior to spectroscopic probe using ion mobility techniques. Specifically, ring and chain isomers of carbon cluster anions with 10;-12 atoms have been separated by ion mobility/mass spectrometry and examined by photoelectron spectroscopy. This methodology should also apply to other ion spectroscopies, including IR photodissociation.
