A high-statistics experiment on a deuterium target was performed using a real photon beam with energies up to 3.6 GeV at the CLAS detector of Jefferson Lab. The reaction reported here is for γd → p K- K+ n where the neutron was identified using the missing mass technique. No statistically significant narrow peak in the mass region from 1.5-1.6 GeV was found. An upper limit on the elementary process γn → K- Θ+ was estimated to be about 4-5 nb, using a model-dependent correction for rescattering determined from Λ(1520) production. Other reactions with less model-dependence are being pursued.
