Absolute cross sections for dissociative electron attachment to water, methane and ammonia

Dissociative electron attachment process to water, methane and ammonia has been studied in gas phase at electron energies in the range of 0–20 eV. Absolute cross sections for production of negative ions in the DEA process to water, ammonia and methane have been measured in a cross beam experiment and compared with the data available in the literature.
