Small Sin and Al, clusters (n = 3-10) were studied with the semiempirical molecular orbital method (MO) method SINDO1. For each n, various structures were optimized to determine the most stable structure. To obtain good qualitative agreement with available ab initio calculations d orbitals had to be

Using full-muffin-tin-orbital molecular-dynamics (FP-LMTO-MD) method, we have investigated the effect of aluminum heteroatoms on the geometric structures and bond characteristics of Si n (n ΒΌ 5-10) clusters in detail. It is found that the geometric framework of the ground state structures for Si n (
Recently we have performed accurate ab initio molecular orbital calculations to study the structures and energies of small silicon clusters (Si,, n = 2-IO). In this work, the ground state binding energies of the clusters have been used to interpret the results of recent photofragmentation experiment
