The four most stable structures of Ni$_N$ clusters with $N$ from 2 to 150 have been determined using a combination of the embedded-atom method in the version of Daw, Baskes and Foiles, the {\it variable metric/quasi-Newton} method, and our…
A systematic, decoration-based technique to discover the atomic structure of a decagonal quasicrystal, given pair potentials and experimentally measured lattice constants, is applied to the ``basic'' cobalt-rich decagonal Al-Co-Ni…
We studied the structural and the electronic properties of ionized and neutral small Au clusters via plane wave pseudopotential calculations. All except the anionic heptamer favor one-dimensional zigzag structures or two-dimensional…
The structural, electronic, and vibrational thermodynamic properties of the (ZnO)$_n$ (n=2-16) clusters are studied using density functional - full potential computations. The results show, small clusters up to $n=9$ stabilize in the 2D…
Using the Embedded Atom Method as developed by Voter and Chen in combination with the {\it variable metric/quasi-Newton} and our own {\it Aufbau/Abbau} methods, we have identified the three most stable isomers of Au$_N$ clusters with $N$ up…
A structural model for intermediate sized silicon clusters is proposed that is able to generate unique structures without any dangling bonds. This structural model consists of bulk-like core of five atoms surrounded by fullerene-like…

Pseudobinary heterostructural alloys of ZnO with MgO or CdO are studied by composing the system locally of clusters with varying ratio of cations. We investigate fourfold (wurtzite structure) and sixfold (rocksalt structure) coordination of…
Small lanthanide clusters have interesting magnetic properties, but their structures are unknown. We have identified the structures of small terbium cluster cations Tb (n = 5-9) in the gas phase, by analysis of their vibrational spectra.…
The stability of two-component clusters consisting of light (Na or K) and heavy (Rb or Cs) alkali atoms formed on helium nanodroplets is studied by femtosecond laser ionization in combination with mass spectrometry. Characteristic stability…
The electronic structure, chemical bonding and interface component in ZrN-AlN nanocomposites formed by phase separation during thin film deposition of metastable Zr1-xAlxN (x=0.0, 0.12, 0.26, 0.40) is investigated by resonant inelastic…
We examine the structure and dynamics of small isolated $N$-particle clusters interacting via short-ranged Morse potentials. "Ideally preprared ensembles" obtained via exact enumeration studies of sticky hard sphere packings serve as…
Alkali trimers, Ak$_3$, located on the surface of He nanodroplets are triply ionized following multiphoton absorption from an intense femtosecond laser pulse leading to fragmentation into three correlated Ak$^+$ ions. Combining the…
The stability and structures of Titanium-doped Gold clusters AunTi (n=2-16) are studied under the relativistic all-electron density-functional calculations. It is found that the most stable structures of AunTi clusters with n=2-7 are…
An ab initio study of the doping of alkali halide crystals (AX: A = Li, Na, K, Rb; X = F, Cl, Br, I) by ns2 anions (Ag- and Cu-) is presented. Large active clusters with 179 ions embedded in the surrounding crystalline lattice are…
Homonuclear spin-polarized alkali-metal trimers in their lowest-lying electronic state are investigated theoretically. Their equilibrium geometries and binding energies are determined with the state-of-the-art quantum chemical methods at…
We study the distribution of hydrogen and various hydride configurations in realistic models of a-Si:H for two different concentration generated via experimentally constrained molecular relaxation approach (ECMR) [1]. The microstructure…
Low-energy structures are found on the potential energy surfaces of the neutral, cationic, and anionic gold clusters Au_{5 \leq n \leq 8}^Z (Z = 0, \pm) and on the neutral potential energy surface of Au_9. These structures provide insights…
We study why gold forms planar and cage-like clusters while copper and silver do not. We use density functional theory and norm-conserving pseudo-potentials with and without a scalar relativistic component. For the exchange-correlation…
The low-energy structures of mixed Ar--Xe and Kr--Xe Lennard-Jones clusters are investigated using a newly developed parallel Monte Carlo minimization algorithm with specific exchange moves between particles or trajectories. Tests on the…
