Structure of Si12 Cluster

chem-ph 2016-08-31 v1 Condensed Matter Chemical Physics

Abstract

Tight-binding molecular dynamic simulations have revealed that Si12_{12} is an icosahedron with all atoms on the surface of an approximately 5 \AA~ diameter sphere. This is the most spherical cage structure for silicon clusters in the 2-13 atom size range.
