Co_mAl_n(m+n≤6)团簇的结构和磁性理论研究

采用密度泛函理论中的广义梯度近似(DFT-GGA)对ComAln(m+n 6)合金团簇进行了系统的几何、电子结构和磁性质研究.研究结果发现ComAln(m+n 6)团簇最稳定结构倾向于形成Co—Al成键数最多的构型,其中的Co—Al二元合金团簇的最稳定结构类似于纯钴团簇.随着Al原子数的增多,团簇的平均磁矩呈线性降低趋势.ComAl(m=2—5)团簇的总磁矩均比Com+1团簇的小4μB,与实验上对较大CoNAlM团簇的磁性检测结果获得了很好地符合.ComAln团簇磁性的降低主要归因于非磁性Al元素的掺入以及Al掺杂后Co原子的整体自旋极化减弱.     

Co掺杂(ZnO)12团簇的结构和磁性质

采用第一性原理密度泛函理论系统地研究Co原子单掺杂和双掺杂(ZnO)₁₂团簇的结构和磁性质.考虑三种掺杂方式:替代掺杂,外掺杂和内掺杂.首先比较各种掺杂团簇的稳定性.结果表明,不管是单掺杂还是双掺杂,外掺杂团簇都是最稳定结构.在结构优化的基础上,对掺杂的(ZnO)₁₂团簇进行磁性计算.发现团簇磁矩主要来自Co-3d态的贡献,4s和4p态也贡献了一小部分磁矩.由于轨道杂化,相邻的Zn和O原子也产生少量自旋.Co原子之间的磁性耦合由直接的Co-Co反铁磁耦合和Co和O原子之间通过p-d杂化产生的铁磁耦合这两种相互作用的竞争决定.研究发现外双掺杂团簇存在铁磁耦合,在纳米量子器件有潜在的应用价值.

Structural, electronic and magnetic properties of ConRh (n=1-8) clusters from density functional calculations

The geometries, stabilities, electronic and magnetic properties of Co_nRh (n=1-8) clusters have been investigated systematically within the framework of the generalized gradient approximation density-functional theory. The results indicate that the most stable structures of Co_nRh (n=1-8) clusters are all similar to those of corresponding Co_n+1 clusters. Maximum peaks of second-order energy difference are found at n=2, 4 and 7, indicating that these clusters possess relatively higher stability than their respective neighbors. The magnetism of the ground state of alloy clusters all displays ferromagnetic coupling except for Co₃Rh. In addition, the doped Rh atom exhibits an important influence on the magnetism of alloy clusters, e.g., compared with corresponding pure Co_n clusters, the local moment of Co atom is noticeably enhanced in Co_nRh alloy clusters at n=1, 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8, while reduced at n=3 and 4. Further analysis based on the average bond length, the charge transfer and the spin polarization has been made to clarify the different magnetic responses to Rh doping.     

Electronic structure and magnetism in (CoPt)n(n⩽5) clusters

The geometrical and magnetic properties of bimetallic clusters (CoPt)_n(1?n?5) have been studied by using the generalized gradient correction spin density formalisms. In general, the ground state structures of (CoPt)_n clusters are the three-dimension structures. We found that both the binding energy and magnetism per (CoPt) unit are increasing consistently with the size of the Co–Pt cluster (n). However, as the n increases, the magnetism shows a trace of convergence while the binding energy shows a linearly increasing pattern. Generally, Co average magnetic moment is enhanced when alloyed with Pt atoms than that in pure Co clusters.     

A density functional theory study of small bimetallic PdnAl (n=1–8) clusters

The geometries, stabilities, and magnetic properties of Pd_nAl (n=1–8) neutral clusters are studied using density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation. The growth pattern for different sized Pd_nAl (n=1–8) clusters is Al-substituted Pd_n+1 clusters and it keeps the similar framework of the most stable Pd_n+1 clusters except n=6 and 8. Al atoms in the ground state Pd_nAl isomers tend to occupy the most highly coordinated position. The analysis of stabilities shows that doping an Al atom can enhance the stabilities of the host Pd clusters and the magic number characteristic of Pd₄ cluster cannot be changed, the Pd₃Al cluster has a higher stability. Charges are transferred from Al atom to Pd atoms in all Pd_nAl clusters, so the Al atom is the electron donor, and Pd atoms are the electron accepters. Doping an Al atom decreases the average atomic magnetic moments of the host Pd clusters.

Dopant dependent stability of Co n TM+ (TM = Ti,V, Cr,and Mn) clusters

In this paper, we present a photofragmentation study of mass-selected transition metal-doped cobalt cluster cations Co _n TM⁺  (n = 8–18, TM = Ti, V, Cr, and Mn). Time-of-flight spectra recorded after laser excitation of mass-selected clusters in the gas phase show that the evaporation of a cobalt atom is the most facile dissociation channel for clusters with TM = Ti and V, suggesting an enhanced stability of the doped clusters compared to the bare ones. In contrast, for Co _n TM⁺ with TM = Cr and Mn, the loss of the dopant atom is found to be the preferred dissociation channel. Co₁₃Cr⁺ is a notable exception and favors dissociation by loss of a neutral Co atom. It is implied that substituting Mn and Cr generally destabilizes the cobalt clusters with the exception of Co₁₂Cr⁺, which is relatively more stable than Co ₁₃ ⁺ . Additional measurements of V _n Co⁺ (n = 9–16) show that the loss of a Co atom is still the most facile dissociation channel, which is in agreement with the predicted stronger V?V bond compared to the V?Co one.     

Evolution of three-shell onion-like and core-shell structures in （AgCo）201 bimetallic clusters

<正>This paper studies the structural evolution of（AgCo）₂₀₁ clusters with different Co concentrations under various temperature conditions by using molecular dynamics with the embedded atom method.The most stable position for Co atoms in the cluster is the subsurface layer at low temperature(lower than 200 K for the Ag₂₀₀Co₁ cluster).The position changes to the core layer with the increase of temperature,but there is an energy barrier in the middle layer. This makes the Ag-Co cluster form an Ag-Co-Ag three-shell onion-like configuration.When the temperature is high enough[higher than 800 K for（AgCo）₂₀₁ clusters with 50%Co],Co atoms can obtain enough energy to overcome the energy barrier and the cluster forms an Ag-Co core-shell configuration.Amorphization for the onion-like and core-shell clusters is induced by the large lattice misfit at Ag-Co interfaces.The structural evolution in the Ag-Co cluster is related to the release of excess energy.     

Density functional theory study of AunMn(n=1-8) clusters

Equilibrium geometries, relative stabilities, and magnetic properties of small Au_nMn (n=1-8) clusters have been investigated using density functional theory at the PW91P86 level. It is found that Mn atoms in the ground state Au_nMn isomers tend to occupy the most highly coordinated position and the lowest energy structure of Au_nMn clusters with even n is similar to that of pure Au_n+1 clusters, except for n=2. The substitution of Au atom in Au_n+1 cluster by a Mn atom improves the stability of the host clusters. Maximum peaks are observed for Au_nMn clusters at n=2, 4 on the size dependence of second-order energy differences and fragmentation energies, implying that the two clusters possess relatively higher stability. The HOMO-LUMO energy gaps of the ground state Au_nMn clusters show a pronounced odd-even oscillation with the number of Au atoms, and the energy gap of Au₂Mn cluster is the biggest among all the clusters. The magnetism calculations indicate that the total magnetic moment of Au_nMn cluster, which has a very large magnetic moment in comparison to the pure Au_n+1 cluster, is mainly localized on Mn atom.
