Electronic Spectra and Electronic Structure of Transition Metal Molecules
The transition metals are known for their chemical diversity, being capable of exhibiting a wide variety of oxidation states and modes of chemical bonding. The ability to engage in a wide range of chemical bonding modes makes the transition metals excellent agents of catalysis while simultaneously making their theoretical description quite challenging. The computational challenges are particula...
متن کاملX-ray spectroscopy reveals high symmetry and electronic shell structure of transition-metal-doped silicon clusters
Size-selected cationic transition-metal-doped silicon clusters have been studied with x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the transition-metal L2,3 edges to investigate the local electronic structure of the dopant atoms. For VSi16 + , the x-ray absorption spectrum is dominated by sharp transitions which directly reveal the formation of a highly symmetric silicon cage around the vanadium atom. In s...
متن کاملElectronic-structure-induced deformations of liquid metal clusters.
Ab initio molecular dynamics is used to study deformations of sodium clusters at temperatures 500 · · · 1100 K. Open-shell Na14 cluster has two shape isomers, prolate and oblate, in the liquid state. The deformation is stabilized by opening a gap at the Fermi level. The closed-shell Na8 remains magic also at the liquid state. Typeset using REVTEX
متن کاملElectronic structure and properties of transition metal-benzene complexes.
A comprehensive theoretical study of the geometries, energetics, and electronic structure of neutral and charged 3d transition metal atoms (M) interacting with benzene molecules (Bz) is carried out using density functional theory and generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation potential. The variation of the metal-benzene distances, dissociation energies, ionization potentia...
متن کاملElectronic Structure and Reactivity of Transition Metal Complexes
Transition metals are ever-present as reactive centers in biological and inorganic catalyticcycles.However, theopen-shell character thatgives3d transitionmetalsunique reactive properties also makes transition metal complexes challenging to study using first-principles approaches, especially when using local or semilocal approximations to density functional theory (DFT). We describe here an appr...
