We present structure calculations of neutral and singly ionized Mg clusters of up to 30 atoms, as well as Na clusters of up to 10 atoms. The calculations have been performed using density functional theory (DFT) within the local…
e analyze the excitation of Ar substrate in contact with Na clusters using a previously developed hierarchical model for the description of the system constituted of a highly reactive metal cluster in contact with a rather inert substrate.…
We report an experimental study of 2D dipole clusters formed by small magnetic particles floating at the air-water interface. The particles form hexagonally ordered clusters due to interplay between dipole-dipole repulsion and confining…
As part of a new approach to calculating the total energy of a diatomic molecule (cluster), it is shown that in the first order of perturbation theory, the total energy of a triatomic cluster is equal to the sum of the total energies of the…
Solving the atomic structure of metallic clusters is fundamental to understanding their optical, electronic, and chemical properties. We report the structure of Au$_{\text{146}}$(p-MBA)$_{\text{57}}$ at subatomic resolution (0.85 {\AA})…
Using first-principles density functional theory based calculations, we analyze the structural stability of small clusters of 3$d$ late transition metals. We consider the relative stability of the two structures - layer-like structure with…
Monomers and small clusters of such molecules can reversibly trap conduction band electrons in dilute alkane solutions. The dynamics and energetics of this trapping have been studied using pulse radiolysis - transient absorption…
Structures of excited states in $^{14}$C are investigated with a method of $\beta$-$\gamma$ constraint antisymmetrized molecular dynamics in combination with the generator coordinate method. Various excited states with the developed…
Carbon clusters have been generated by a novel technique of energetic heavy ion bombardment of amorphous graphite. The evolution of clusters and their subsequent fragmentation under continuing ion bombardment is revealed by detecting…
A number of iterative and perturbative approximations to the full equation-of-motion coupled cluster method with single, double, and triple excitations (EOM-CCSDT) are evaluated in the context of calculating the K-edge core-excitation and…
Quantum periodic cluster methods for strongly correlated electron systems are reformulated and developed. The reformulation and development are based on a canonical transformation which periodizes the fermions in the cluster space. The…
A highly efficient semi-empirical Hamiltonian has been developed and applied to model the compact boron clusters with the intermediate size. The Hamiltonian, in addition to the inclusion of the environment-dependent interactions and…
Many-electron correlation methods offer a systematic approach to predicting material properties with high precision. However, practically attaining accurate ground-state properties for bulk metals presents significant challenges. In this…
An electron diffraction technique is used to study the structure of clusters formed in an isentropically expanding supersonic argon jet. The formation of the hcp phase with increasing cluster size is reliably detected for the first time.…
We propose a new structural model for the Si(111)-(5x2)-Au reconstruction. The model incorporates a new experimental value of 0.6 monolayer for the coverage of gold atoms, equivalent to six gold atoms per 5x2 cell. Five main theoretical…
We use energy minimization principles to predict the structure of a decagonal quasicrystal - d(AlCoNi) - in the Cobalt-rich phase. Monte Carlo methods are then used to explore configurations while relaxation and molecular dynamics are used…
It is found out that there are physical effects, typical of small metal clusters deposited on a non-adsorbing support, that cause a difference between the adsorption properties of sites at the metal cluster surface and those of sites at the…
We theoretically and numerically studied ordering of "colloidal ionic clusters" on periodic substrate potentials as those generated by optical trapping. Each cluster consists of three charged spherical colloids: two negatively and one…
The shifts of the electronic absorption spectra of GaAs and GaP semiconductor clusters are calculated using accurate pseudopotentials. In the absence of experimental data at present, these calculations provide estimates of expected spectral…
Atomically precise thiolate-stabilized gold nanoclusters are currently of interest for many cross-disciplinary applications in chemistry, physics and molecular biology. Very recently, synthesis and electronic properties of "nanoalloy"…
