Dissociation and fission of small neutral, singly and doubly charged strontium clusters are studied by means of ab initio density functional theory methods and high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Magic numbers for small…

We present a comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) study of Mo-doped silver clusters Ag$_n$Mo ($n=1$-14), focusing on their structural, electronic, and bonding properties. Global optimization reveals an evolution from planar and…

Water clusters are known to form through hydrogen bonding. However, this study shows that the formation of very small water clusters significantly deviates from this mechanism and instead involves both hydrogen bonding and electron…

Electronic structures of carbides with the rocksalt structure were calculated by full potential electronic codes solving the Kohn-Sham equation. Bonding characters were analyzed by constructing tight-binding Hamiltonian based on…

An expansion of energy characteristics of wide thin slab of thickness L in power of 1/L is constructed using the free-electron approximation and the model of a potential well of finite depth. Accuracy of results in each order of the…

Global minimum structures of neutral (Fe2O3)n clusters with n = 1-5 were determined employing the genetic algorithm in combination with ab initio parameterized interatomic potentials and subsequent refinement at the density functional…

Hybridization of atomic orbitals is a widely appreciated phenomenon whose impact on the structure and properties of, for example, organic molecules is well-established. Here, we demonstrate that hybridization also dramatically impacts the…

We study the formation and growth of equilibrium clusters in a suspension of weakly-charged colloidal particles and small non-adsorbing polymers. The effective potential is characterised by a short-range attraction and a long-range…

We report a first principles study based on density functional theory on the structural and electronic properties of transition metal Zr and Hf doped small aluminum clusters with 1 to 7 aluminum atoms. We have used B3PW91 with LANL2DZ basis…

We calculate cohesive properties of LiF, NaF, KF, LiCl, NaCl, and KCl with ab-initio quantum chemical methods. The coupled-cluster approach is used to correct the Hartree-Fock crystal results for correlations and to systematically improve…

The structure of a single alanine-based Ace-AEAAAKEAAAKA-Nme peptide in explicit aqueous electrolyte solutions (NaCl, KCl, NaI, and KF) at large salt concentrations (3-4 M) is investigated using 1 microsecond molecular dynamics (MD)…

Both even- and odd-numbered neutral carbon clusters Cn (n = 2-10) are systematically studied using the energy minimization method and the modified Brenner potential for the carbon-carbon interactions. Many stable configurations were found…

In a recent study by Kornath et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 118 (2003) 6957], the Li_n clusters with n=2, 4 and 8 have been isolated in argon matrices at 15 K and characterized by Raman spectroscopy. This has prompted us to carry out a theoretical…

In the present work, the low-lying structures of 20 different-sized water clusters are extensively searched using the artificial bee colony algorithm with TIP4P classical force field. To obtain the lowest equilibrium geometries, we select…

We present a systematic study of the geometries, energetics, electronic structure and bonding in various Al-Li clusters viz. AlnLin ($n$=1-11), Al$_2^-$, Al$_2^{2-}$, Al$_2$Li, Al$_2$Li$^-$, and Al6Li8 using Born-Oppenheimer molecular…

The static response properties and the structural stability of silver clusters in the size range $1\le n \le 23$ have been studied using a linear combination of atomic Gaussian-type orbitals within the density functional theory in the…

The magnetic structures of small clusters of Fe, Mn, and Cr supported on a Cu(111) surface have been studied with non-collinear first principles theory. Different geometries such as triangles, pyramids and wires are considered and the…

We study the structure of clusters in a model colloidal system with competing interactions using Brownian dynamics simulations. A short-ranged attraction drives clustering, while a weak, long-ranged repulsion is used to model electrostatic…

The properties of neutral and anionic Pd_N clusters were investigated with spin-density-functional calculations. The ground state structures are three-dimensional for N>3 and they are magnetic with a spin-triplet for 2<=N<=7 and a spin…

The emergence of CsCl bulk structure in (CsCl)nCs+ cluster ions is investigated using a mixed quantum-mechanical/semiempirical theoretical approach. We find that rhombic dodecahedral fragments (with bulk CsCl symmetry) are more stable than…
