Abstract
Gas phase ion mobility spectrometry in combination with quantum chemical calculations has proven to be extremely useful for the structure determination of cluster ions. After a short introduction into the methodology, investigations focused on clusters of different main group metals and semi-metals are reviewed. Based on the findings of different groups, it became apparent that in many cases small clusters (below 100 atoms) show a rich variation in shape as function of the number of atoms.
