Recent experimental advances have allowed the formation of charged metal clusters into multiply charged helium nanodroplets. The impact of the charge of immersed metal species in helium nanodroplet-mediated surface deposition is proved by considering silver atoms and cations at zero-temperature graphene as the support. By combining high-level ab initio intermolecular inter- action theory with a full quantum description of the superfluid helium nanodroplet motion, evidence is presented that the fundamental mechanism of soft-deposition is preserved in spite of the much stronger interaction of charged species with surfaces, with high-density fluctuations in the helium droplet playing an essential role in braking them. Corroboration is also presented that the soft- landing becomes favored as the helium nanodroplet size increases.8 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc (c) Fernández, Berta et al., 2023http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/es/SuperfluïdesaHeliNanopartículesSuperfluidityHeliumNanoparticlesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7372152023-07-07info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
