Physics Publications
First principles studies on the ground statestructure, binding energy, spin multiplicity, and the noncollinearity of local spin moments in Fen and Fen− clusters and their oxides, viz., FenO2and FenO2− have been carried out within a density functional formalism. The ground states of Fen and Fen− clusters have collinear spins with a magnetic moment of around 3.0 μB per atom. The O2 molecule is found to be dissociatively absorbed and its most significant effect on spin occurs in Fe2, where Fe2O2 and Fe2O2− show antiferromagnetic and noncollinear spin arrangements, respectively. The calculated adiabatic electron affinity and the vertical transitions from the …

Three-dimensional aromaticity is shown to play a role in the stability of deltahedral Zintl clusters and here we examine the connection between aromaticity and stability. In order to gain further insight, we have studied Zintl analogs comprised of bismuthdopedtin clusters with photoelectron spectroscopy and theoretical methods. To assign aromaticity, we examine the ring currents induced around the cage by using the nucleus independent chemical shift. In the current study, BiSn4− is a stable cluster and fits aromatic criteria, while BiSn5− is found to fit antiaromatic criteria and has reduced stability. The more stable clusters exhibit an aromatic character which originates …

Photoelectron Spectroscopic And Theoretical Studies Of Fem−(Coronene)N (M=1,2, N=1,2) Complexes, Xiang Li, Soren Eustis, Kit H. Bowen, Anil K. Kandalam, Puru Jena
Physics Publications
Fem(coronene)n (m=1,2, n=1,2) cluster anions were generated by a laser vaporization source and studied by anion photoelectron spectroscopy. Density functional theory was used to calculate the structures and the spin multiplicities of those clusters as well as the electron affinities and photodetachment transitions. The calculated magnetic moments of Fe1(coronene)1 and Fe2(coronene)1 clusters suggest that coronene could be a suitable template on which to deposit small iron clusters and that these in turn might form the basis of an iron cluster-based magnetic material. Fe1(coronene)2 and Fe2(coronene)2 cluster anions and their corresponding neutrals prefer the sandwich-type structures, and the ground state structures …

The ground states of the mixed 3d-metal dimers TiV, TiCr, TiMn, TiFe, TiCo, TiNi, TiCu, TiZn, VCr, VMn, VFe, VCo, VNi, VCu, VZn, CrMn, CrFe, CrCo, CrNi, CrCu, CrZn, MnFe, MnCo, MnNi, MnCu, MnZn, FeCo, FeNi, FeCu, FeZn, CoNi, CoCu, CoZn, NiCu, NiZn, and CuZn along with their singly negatively and positively charged ions are assigned based on the results of computations using density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation functional. Except for TiCo and CrMn, our assignment agrees with experiment. Computed spectroscopic constants (re,ωe,Do) are in fair agreement with experiment. The ground-state spin multiplicities of all …
