Where does the planar-to-nonplanar turnover occur in small gold clusters?

چکیده
Several levels of theory, including both Gaussian-based and plane wave density functional theory (DFT), second-order perturbation theory (MP2), and coupled cluster methods (CCSD(T)), are employed to study Au6 and Au8 clusters. All methods predict that the lowest energy isomer of Au6 is planar. For Au8, both DFT methods predict that the two lowest isomers are planar. In contrast, both MP2 and CCSD(T) predict the lowest Au8 isomers to be nonplanar.

In this study, the structures, the IR spectroscopy, and the electronic properties of AunCum (n+m≤5) bimetallic clusters were studied and compared with those of pure gold and copper clusters using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and exchange correlation density functional theory (DFT). The study of an O2-AunCum system is important to identify the promotion effects of each of the two...

متن کاملPlanar and Nonplanar Konishi Anomalies and Exact Wilsonian Effective Superpotential for Noncommutative N = 1 Supersymmetric U ( 1 )
Abstract The Konishi anomalies for noncommutative N = 1 supersymmetric U(1) gauge theory arising from planar and nonplanar diagrams are calculated. Whereas planar Konishi anomaly is the expected ⋆-deformation of the commutative anomaly, nonplanar anomaly reflects the important features of nonplanar diagrams of noncommutative gauge theories, such as UV/IR mixing and the appearance of nonlocal op...
متن کاملObservation of earlier two-to-three dimensional structural transition in gold cluster anions by isoelectronic substitution: MAu(n)(-) (n=8-11; M=Ag,Cu).
The effects of isoelectronic substitution on the electronic and structural properties of gold clusters are investigated in the critical size range of the two-dimensional (2D)-three-dimensional (3D) structural transition (MAu(n)(-), n=8-11; M=Ag,Cu) using photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional calculations. Photoelectron spectra of MAu(n)(-) are found to be similar to those of the bar...
