First-Principles Calculation of Photoabsorption Spectra of Cadmium Selenide Clusters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Photoabsorption spectra of magic-number cluster, (CdSe)34, in a pearl-necklace geometry are calculated for the first time by a firstprinciples approach based on the density functional theory. Photoabsorption spectra for the (CdSe)34 isolated-cage geometry is also calculated. We confirmed the size dependence by comparing them with our former result of smaller magic-number cluster, (CdSe)13. Three different types of supercells are supposed to simulate the pearl-necklace geometry and a double-peak structure is found in a particular supercell. We found that the cluster geometry in this supercell is the most stable among the three. [doi:10.2320/matertrans.MB200825]

Photoabsorption in sodium clusters on the basis of time-dependent density-functional theory.
The photoabsorption spectra of a continuous series of Na(n) clusters (n<or=14, n=20, n=40) have been calculated using a time-dependent density-functional scheme. Accordingly, we present these spectra and show that they are in very good agreement with other theoretically and experimentally obtained photoabsorption spectra. Furthermore, we discuss the influence of the cluster structure on the pho...

متن کاملOptical response of small magnesium clusters
We predict the strong enhancement in the photoabsorption of small Mg clusters in the region of 4-5 eV due to the resonant excitation of the plasmon oscillations of cluster electrons. The photoabsorption spectra for neutral Mg clusters consisting of up to N = 11 atoms have been calculated using ab initio framework based on the time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The nature of predi...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain RB is a bacterium capable of synthesizing cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanoparticles and was isolated from a soil sample. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of P. aeruginosa strain RB. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a draft genome of a CdSe-synthesizing bacterium.
